Top Gear’s Clarkson, Hammond and May to feature in Forza 5

BBC’s Top Gear is returning to Microsoft’s Forza franchise.

The popular motoring TV show was a feature of both Forza 4 and Sony’s Gran Turismo 5, although its integration into Microsoft’s game ran far deeper, with outspoken host Jeremy Clarkson lending his voice to the game’s Autovista mode.

Turn 10 design lead Bill Giese has now confirmed to Joystiq that Clarkson will in Forza 5 be joined by co-presenters Richard Hammond and James May, although it’s not yet clear in what capacity.

"I can tell you all three hosts are involved, they’re going to give us some awesome structure in how we present our career to players," Giese said. "We’ll be announcing a little bit more about that this summer, but we’re super excited to have all three hosts this time."
