Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’re probably on Snapchat – one of the hottest social networks out there. It’s about to get a bit hotter, as the Polyphony Digital guys are launching a new official Snapchat account to share content about Gran Turismo games and events.

They are starting off strong, offering some behind-the-scenes access to the major Gran Turismo Sport event kicking off in London tomorrow.

To follow the account, just open Snapchat and take a picture of the Snapcode above. You can also follow the account by its username, thegranturismo.

    There has been a lot updates, plenty of images and video. Hope it pays off, too much hype and then we get just a fraction of the supposedly awesome future. Fingers crossed damn it.

    I was looking on GTs snapchat and my friend with her dog came after GT
    So I was like why does GT have a picture of a dog ;) lol

    As something of a youngster, I can say that I never want to touch Snapchat, not even to follow Gran Turismo. Bit of a shame that I won’t be seeing any of their probably increasingly infrequent content, but whatever. I’ll live. I’ll still as likely play GT SPORT.

      Snapchat is a social media application designed for smartphones and you can download it for free via the App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android).

    Well… I was living under a rock… Jajajaja, didn’t know what “snapchat” was.. But i will go back living under my rock a long time more, cause don’t care about that “snapchat” thing.

      Will see, if it is another useless attempt of “being social”, then is, well, useless. Look at Pitstop, the content is great but we get zero answers or tangible new info. It will be cool if that could function as a forum but nope.
      Anyway I added them. Still waiting for something great but I’m keeping my expectations at -10 just in case :(

    Well, looks like I have a reason to download snapchat now. Question…I added “thegranturismo” on snapchat, now what? Will I get notifications everytime PD post something?? How does this work?

    1. RacingPanda

      Nope, you have to open the app and then you will see a purple square in the lower right-hand corner. Touch said square and you will be able to see their “Snapchat Story”, as it is officially called.

      It will notify you when a snapchat or video is added. Unless you have notifications disabled. It’s automatic, which is how most social apps come by default.

    I have snapchat, it just that i never use it since i have got Instagram, Twitter and so on to cover that. Does it mean i’m “living under a rock”?

      Then after the train exits the tunnel – let’s jump from the windows with parashoots then landing at the event for more action XD

    Face swapping on drivers confirmed!

    But really, this is the first real reason I’ve had to use the app in years.
