Polyphony Digital

With less than a month until release, Sony has slowly begun revealing more information on the game modes of GT Sport.

To say that 2017 is a good year for racing games would be an understatement. We’ve already had DiRT 4 and F1 2017 from the house of Codemasters and this fall, the Big Three of sim racing games is going to get involved.

One of the most impressive partnerships in Gran Turismo history is that between the series and Nissan. The team behind GT has directly influenced the superb Nissan GT-R throughout its life. The tangible end result of this partnership was the Polyphony-designed center console in the car, but the relationship is still very much alive, as revealed in an interview by Motoring.au.

Ever wonder about those sweet custom-built Gran Turismo racing pods at events? GTPlanet member Julian Hunt did too, and now he can count one as part of his extensive GT collection. This guest article details Julian’s hunt for the crown jewel.

Gran Turismo Sport is something of a departure from the traditional Gran Turismo series game. The online focus at the expense of a career mode and a relatively small car count, heavy with racing models, is not the GT we all know and love.

The outpouring of new GT Sport footage continues. The following video shows off the potential of the new livery editor, as well as gives us our first ever look at night driving at the notorious Tokyo Expressway circuit.

It would appear Polyphony Digital has built Gran Turismo Sport’s eye-popping graphics with the future in mind. During a tour of Polyphony Digital’s Tokyo offices, series creator Kazunori Yamauchi revealed to Finder.com that the car models in the game would be better-suited to whatever successor Sony has planned for the PS4 Pro.

Something pretty remarkable is set to happen this fall, when Nintendo releases the SNES Classic Edition. No, it’s not that you won’t be able to buy one, nor is it the fact that unscrupulous scalpers will try and bleed every red cent from your childhood nostalgia.

Just as it’s about to celebrate four months of activity, the GT Sport Closed Beta Test will reportedly come to an end July 16.

Coming up on the July 10 is Amazon’s thirty-hour Prime Day sale event. If you’re unfamiliar with the event, it’s a yearly mass-discount sale like Black Friday. Unlike Black Friday, it’s an Amazon exclusive event, and only extends to Prime Members.

Gran Turismo Sport had a fair showing at this year’s E3, delivering fans an all-new trailer and release window of this fall.

We got a fair amount of seat time with Gran Turismo Sport at E3 last week. Between catching the latest trailer and interviewing series creator Kazunori Yamauchi (twice), we took in the latest build of Polyphony’s first PS4 game.

We’ve seen the trailer, we’ve interviewed the boss (twice) and now there’s even more information coming about GT Sport.

E3 has brought all sorts of news for Gran Turismo Sport. We now have a release window, new trailer and plenty of screenshots to digest. The goodies don’t end there however, as the US game website has received a substantial update.

Gran Turismo fans were treated to a brand new trailer and release window for GT Sport yesterday. Today, Polyphony Digital has followed that up with a new batch of screenshots for the sim racer, which introduce new cars and tracks.

Attendees at the 24 Hours Nürburgring will get a chance to try a brand new version of Gran Turismo Sport, starting today.

Polyphony Digital has revealed the newest challenge held within the ongoing GT Sport closed beta. Dubbed the “Media Cup”, the event has already begun and will run through to the end of this weekend.

2017 is shaping up to be a massive year for racing games, in part due to the sudden (and very welcome) availability of Porsche across the genre. On the face of it this is great news, but one manufacturer seems increasingly rare on the car lists of upcoming games: Ruf Automobile.

Gran Turismo Sport is set to arrive later this year. While Kazunori Yamauchi says the game could be called GT7, it bucks the numbered-title trend. This has inspired us to take a look back at the first spin-off titles in the long-running franchise: the Gran Turismo Concept trilogy.

The familiar setting of Brands Hatch has become a testing ground for yet another comparison, showing the similarities — and differences — between two racing simulators. The latest video compares Project CARS to the GT Sport beta, using the up-to-date Corvette C7.R and Gr.3 car, respectively.
