Real Racing 3 update 10.3 adds the bonkers Koenigsegg Jesko

While other mobile racers like Forza Street crashed and burned, EA and developer Firemonkeys still support Real Racing 3. It's a testament to the mobile racer's popularity because Real Racing 3 released way back in 2011.

Following February’s anniversary update, Real Racing 3 update 10.3 adds four desirable cars including the incredible Koenigsegg Jesko and Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing. The update also adds new Special Events where you can earn rewards and a photo mode.

Koenigsegg Jesko joins Real Racing 3

The star car in the latest Real Racing 3 update is undoubtedly the ultra-rare and highly requested Koenigsegg Jesko. Limited to 125 examples in real life, this Swedish sensation packs a 5.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 producing up to 1,603 horsepower. When running on the right fuel, the Jesko will top out at 278 mph.

A replacement for the Agera RS, the Jesko can be yours in Real Racing 3 for 1,100 Gold. It’s also a reward car for completing the All or Nothing Special Event starting today on 29 March.

Also joining Real Racing 3’s car roster is the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing. Making its racing game debut in Real Racing 3, the Cadillac's answer to the BMW M5 Competition is powered by a supercharged 6.2-litre V8 generating 668 horsepower.

The CT5-V Blackwing is Cadillac's answer to the BMW M5 Competition.

All that power is sent to the rear wheels, enabling the CT5-V Blackwing to hit 0-60 mph in 3.4 seconds with a ten-speed automatic transmission. Top speed is over 200 mph.

To own the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing in Real Racing 3, you’ll need to spend 525 Gold or complete the Blackwing Special Event starting on 16 April.

Other new cars joining Real Racing 3 include the Chevrolet Corvette C7 ZR1 and Mercedes-AMG C63S.

Photo Mode+

These new cars can be captured in Real Racing 3’s new Photo Mode+. Currently in beta and only available on iOS, the new photo mode allows you to position the camera when viewing a car in your garage by moving the device to take the perfect shot.

Round 7 starts today

The update also marks the start of Round 7, with new cars, events, and prizes to earn by collecting VP.
