Porsche's contract with EA games is dissolving and they have made no attempts to renew that contract. This could be because either Porsche is not interested in investing on the games by EA or that they just don’t want their cars up for gaming.

Porsche has been one of the best car models for a very long time now and although not everyone can afford the lavish car, they dream of driving it and enjoying its luxury. The cars have developed a new level of desire amongst people, with the brilliant features and mechanism to match the brand name and its quality. As the cars that excel in performance, looks and reputation, Porsche is one of the top most desires of everyone.

In recent news, the one thing that has brought the company under the limelight is the fact that their contract with EA games is dissolving and they have made no attempts to renew that contract. This could be because either Porsche is not interested in investing on the games by EA or that they just don't want their cars up for gaming.For the youngsters who thrive to drive or experience the thrill of the cars, the least they can do is own those cars in videogame and drive them. The video game is one place where the cars are available without the excessive burden on your pocket and Porsche knows that very well.

The company had signed a deal with the creators of "Need For Speed" for their own game but for a long time there has been no development in the deal because there has been no signs of any involvement of Porsche in the EA games. The luxury company cars had although made several contributions in the games of 2015 expansion pack for "Forza Horizon 2" and release of "Forza Motorsport 6" (2016). According to news from Jalopnik, they have also featured in an upcoming project of the CARS sequel along with "Forza Horizon 3" menus. The news from Gamefans, however, states that Porsche will not be signing any exclusive deals with anyone (any company) in the near future.

The company knows all about the gaming market and have their mind set on the strategic steps they need to take so that their reputations and their cars improve. The development and globalization of the company, Porsche, is important to the members and to every deal, therefore the actions must be decided well. This move of letting the deal dissolve this year could be beneficial as they can sign other deals which seem more appropriate for them.
