This week, the videogame "Asphalt 9: Legends" kicks off a special challenge.
Gameloft, the producer of Asphalt, chose the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 for its uniqueness, its sleek and futuristic design combined with sophisticated aerodynamics and its engine - the most powerful 12-cylinder naturally aspirated engine ever developed by Automobili Lamborghini, capable of developing over 830 horsepower.
Exclusive clientele
Designed by Squadra Corse and styled by Centro Stile Lamborghini, the Essenza SCV12 was unveiled in 2020 and is intended for the pure driving experience on the racetrack.
Buyers of the Essenza SCV12 are members of an exclusive club that grants access to special driving programs that allow the hypercar to be used on the world's most prestigious race tracks, and experience unique and special emotions.
Investment in e-sports
Lamborghini continues to invest in the e-sports scene, making its debut in a mobile video game after previous experiences on other platforms.
Giorgio Sanna, Head ofMotorsport at Automobili Lamborghini: "In all GT championships where Lamborghinis compete, there is a digital version that allows real drivers and fans to have fun but also to gain experience through simulations on virtual tracks. Gaming certainly has a more playful and less realistic approach, but it is an important tool to introduce our cars to the general public and to new generations. That's why we're delighted that the Essenza SCV12 has been chosen by Asphalt 9 to experience the emotion of getting behind the wheel of our hypercar for the track."
Start to the qualifying rounds
Starting May 13, gamers around the world can choose "their" SCV12 from the eight available colors and challenge each other in the first mobile e-sports competition called Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 Challenge. This will be held in three open qualifying rounds: the first from May 13 to 16, the second from June 10 to 13, and the third from July 1 to 4.
The top hundred will take part in the closed qualifying competitions, which will be held from August 5 to 8. The best eight gamers will then meet in the final, which will be held on September 18.
