Zynga (Nasdaq:ZNGA), a leading social game developer, today

to the vehicle lineup in CSR Racing 2 (CSR2), a mobile racing game
developed by Zynga's UK-based studio, NaturalMotion. CSR2 players

of their favorite sports car directly from their mobile phone or

“We’re incredibly excited to introduce Porsche to
CRS2 players,” said Torsten Reil, CEO of NaturalMotion. “Porsche is
an icon in the automotive industry. For more than 60 years, Porsche
has designed some of the most stunning premium and exclusive sports
cars that people all over the world dream of owning. We’re proud to
work with Porsche to give CSR2 players the chance to win or buy an
in-game Porsche and see what it’s like to race some of the fastest
cars on the road.”
Beginning today, CSR2 players can experience
getting behind the wheel of a 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder, 2016 911
Turbo S or a 2017 718 Boxster S. The 918 Spyder and 911 Turbo S
will be up for grabs to win as a Season Prize for players who
complete the Crew Milestone Ladder. For players who cannot wait to
hit the streets in a Porsche, the 718 Boxster S can be purchased in
the game’s car dealership. Players also have a chance to win a rare
in-game version of the Porsche 718 Boxster S.
In CSR2, players participate in head-to-head drag
races – the purest form of auto racing – against friends and fellow
car fans. To create the most authentic mobile racing experience,
the CSR2 team worked closely with Porsche to recreate the physical
specs of their vehicles for the mobile screen. From the vehicle
paint colors and finishes, to the interior leather colors and
trims, every detail precisely mirrors the look and feel of a real
Porsche.
CSR2 is the third installment in the CSR Racing
franchise, which also includes the original CSR Racing and CSR
Racing Classics. CSR2 has garnered more than 1 million 5-star
reviews and is currently the #1 Top Grossing Racing Game in over 50
countries. Since the game’s launch, CSR2 players have raced more
than 583 million miles in the game, enough to circle the world more
than 23,400 times.
CSR2 is available to download for free on the App
Store and Google Play. For more information about CSR2, visit the
game's community channels on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and
