With this competition, the two companies are tapping into the potential of the global game developer community while developers are invited to pioneer the field of in-car gaming.
The BMW Group and AirConsole will jointly promote the competition at the Game Developer Conference (GDC) in San Francisco (March 20-24).
Developers can submit their ideas and concepts until June 8 via the official competition website.
Among the submitted game concepts, the best four will be chosen as winners and will each receive 5,000 euros for the development of a prototype.
If the prototype proves promising, AirConsole will fully fund the development of the game to then be included on the AirConsole platform. The winners are also invited to the BMW Group headquarters in Munich to see the result in action.
The BMW Group chose nDream - the company behind the AirConsole brand - as a partner to bring casual gaming into the car through the BMW Startup Garage programme.
