Partners since 2014, with the goal of empowering Special Olympics athletes and Programs through technology, Microsoft and Special Olympics are teaming up for the 2020 Special Olympics Xbox Virtual Gaming Event, featuring Turn 10 Studios’ Forza Motorsport 7 on Saturday, May 30.
With athletic training and competitions currently postponed due to COVID-19, Special Olympics are looking for new ways to connect, compete, and just have fun. Enveloping this event will be stories of the athletes themselves – allowing a broad fanbase to know who they are, what they care about, how they are feeling – and cheer them on as they discover new community and excitement in playing Forza Motorsport 7. Eleven states will be represented in this year’s event with over 35 athletes participating.
In this spirited, livestreamed event, fans, families, and friends are all invited to celebrate Special Olympics athletes and help combat isolation. Join the experience by watching livestreamed Forza Motorsport 7 racing on Mixer, Xbox YouTube, or Twitch.
