New MotoGP entrant heading to the Xbox 360

Agoura Hills (CA) - Continuing its next-gen exclusivity with Microsoft, the latest MotoGP racing game will be heading to the Xbox 360 later this year.

MotoGP 07, which has been given a release window of autumn 2007, adds new bikes and characters, and tweaks the mechanics of the game from last year’s installment.

The original MotoGP actually appeared on the PS2 platform first and didn’t make its way to the Xbox until a couple years later. However, THQ has taken a notable dive in support for Sony in the new generation. It currently has no exclusive PS3 titles in development.

THQ did not announce pricing for MotoGP 07, but it is expected to be at the standard price point for Xbox 360 titles of $60.
