Kunos Simulazioni has reacted to last night’s rumor started by PretendRaceCars.net regarding a possible sale of their studio to Microsoft-owned Turn 10 Studios, creators of the Forza Motorsport franchise.
As expected, the rumor turned out to be fabricated out of thin air, as Kunos’ Marco Massarutto confirmed in a new statement:
Ok, let’s stop these ridicolous rumors. Kunos Simulazioni is not going to be purchased by Turn10. We met them for the first and last time in 2015 at the E3. Nice people, nice conversation, but that’s all. Any negotiation has never been started. And the only reason why we have never mentioned any “Assetto Corsa 2” yet, is because we are still working on the first one, not because we are going to sell our Brand. But it’s funny to see how some people like to waste their lifetime. And should tell a lot about the reliability of some so-called-sources.
