Ferrari Challenge for PS3 and Wii

System 3's Mark Cale to show it at Leipzig.

A new next-generation racing game is set to be unveiled at the Leipzig Games Convention in Germany next week, proudly sporting the official Ferrari license.

Publisher System 3 has announced that it will be unveiling Ferrari Challenge at a press conference on 23rd August - the first time a playable version of the officially Ferrari-licensed racing sim will be shown.

The developer says that its "close ties to Ferrari" and the input of professional racing drivers - along with a little help from racing game specialists Eutechnyx - will all go to make for the definitive Ferrari experience.

The PlayStation 3 version of the game is set to be the technical showcase among the various versions available, as curiously, there's no Xbox 360 version in sight. The Wii version meanwhile, promises the "most accurate motion-sensing steering" yet seen on the console, claims System 3.

The game is also set to appear on PSP and DS in November, and a PS2 conversion is earmarked for next year.

System 3 boss Mark Cale said: "It's no secret that I've been a Ferrari fan for many years and Ferrari Challenge represents the coming together of my two most enduring passions - Ferrari racing and video games. We're sparing no expense to insure Ferrari Challenge will be the definitive Ferrari experience and now is the time to show the press how far we've come."
