Hot on the heels of announcing that Forza 3 will (gasp) release this year, Turn-10 has revealed today that the famed Circuit de Catalunya raceway will be included in a Forza title for the first time. Additionally, Turn-10 also revealed a list of 12 Euro-Sport Compact cars that are also making their debut in the Forza series.
The Circuit de Catalunya, located in Barcelona, is best known for being the home of the F1 Spanish Grand Prix each year. Forza, of course, is not a Formula One game, but Turn-10 did show off the additional 12 compact cars you'll be able to cruise the raceway with:
2009 Alfa Romeo Brera Ti
2009 Alfa Romeo Mito
2010 Fiat 500 Abarth SS
2009 Ford Fiesta Zetec S
2009 Ford Focus RS
2009 Lotus Evora
2009 MINI John Cooper Works
2009 Renault Twingo Renault Sport Cup
2008 Saab 9-3 Turbo X
2009 SEAT Ibiza Cupra
2009 Vauxhall Corsa VXR
2009 Volvo C30 R-Design
Noting that compacts are "known to be some of the most modified cars," the press release promised that "tuners can expect that same level of customization in Forza Motorsport 3 to transform these cars into powerful driving machines." It's unclear, though, whether that means the tuning options for these compacts will be any different than any other car in Forza 3.
And as a last tidbit, Turn-10 also confirmed that the famed (and really, really long) Nürburgring raceway in Nürburg, Germany will once again appear in the game as well. Below are a few more pics of the new cars racing along both tracks.
