It’s been just over two weeks since we first learned that Porsche is coming to Gran Turismo Sport. Since then, we’ve seen a few juicy screenshots, but there’s been no video of the cars in action — until now.
Just a short time ago, Polyphony Digital finally released the first official gameplay and replay footage of a head-to-head Porsche 911 GT3 RS battle on the Nürburgring Nordschleife. The video is available in 4K resolution, and provides our first listen to the 911’s engine sounds in GT Sport from the interior view and replay camera angles.
The video comes alongside an update posted to the official Gran Turismo website, where Polyphony commented on its new relationship with the German automaker:
Both Polyphony and Porsche share a common principle and philosophy in promoting sustainable motoring across the next generation. Sports car fans who dreamt of getting behind the wheel of a Porsche through Gran Turismo Sport can now look forward to it later this year.
And yes, that does appear to be re-confirmation that GT Sport will indeed be releasing this year — a good sign for those concerned with the progress of the ongoing beta.
Porsche has already teased us with news that more of its cars are coming to the game, so there are sure to be many more juicy videos coming down the pipe. As always, stay tuned to GTPlanet for more developments as they are released!
