Fanatec seems to have noticed something that prompted them to significantly lower their prices. We’ve been noticing it for months, but it’s good that they’ve also realized it. With Moza and Asetek entering the market, quality and offerings have been increasing while prices are being reduced. Without the CSW series, Fanatec doesn’t have a competitive edge. Now, they are focusing on the launch of Forza Motorsport with these two peripherals compatible with the game on PC and Xbox. The DD1 base is priced at 999.95 euros, which is 200 euros lower than its previous price.
