There was a lot to digest from Gran Turismo’s most recent World Tour event at the Nurburgring. It had close, unpredictable racing, it revealed some tantalizing new content for GT Sport, and put the race stewards squarely in the spotlight of controversy. In the end, it wrote a memorable chapter in the 2019 season of the FIA-certified Gran Turismo Championship.

It’s a week for experiencing the race tracks and locations of Europe in the Daily Races for the next seven days.

Codemasters continued the evolution of DiRT Rally 2.0 earlier this week. Another duo of cars has joined the lineup, and the developer has also outlined what players can expect with the next game version, due next week.

As no doubt spoiled by the title: racers, rejoice! Polyphony Digital has put an end to a nasty exploit around the Goodwood Motor Circuit in GT Sport.

A new month has begun, which also means a new season change in Forza Horizon 4. Summer has returned to the UK, bringing new events and content with it.

With the release of Gran Turismo Sport update 1.40 on June 27, a selection of cars in the game have seen their Balance of Performance (BoP) adjusted to equalize performance in their respective categories. Earlier today, Polyphony Digital published an official list of changes to all 23 affected vehicles.

In April, Bigben Interactive announced its plans to release an official game for the FIA Euro Truck Racing Championship. Suffice to say, this will be a sim racer exclusively featuring hulking big rigs, the first of its kind. It joins the likes of official WRC, Blancpain GT, and Formula 1 games in the genre.

With this month’s update out in the wild, players will soon bid farewell to further updates for Forza Motorsport 7. After two years, Turn 10 has confirmed development on FM7 will end following next month’s update.

Codemasters announced today that its reborn racer GRID will be launching four weeks later than originally planned, with a new release date of October 11.

After a delay pushed it into this year, Bugbear Entertainment’s Wreckfest is officially coming to consoles by summer’s end.

This month’s Forza Motorsport 7 update has arrived. It’s a small one too, focusing in on a new aspect of the Forza Race Regulations system: penalties for collisions.

We recently got the opportunity to sit down with Gran Turismo series creator Kazunori Yamauchi. The round-table chat took place during a break in the schedule at the Nurburgring World Tour event, and you can read the first part of the discussion here.

Playground Games has begun July with a preview of the next major Forza Horizon 4 update. Series 11 arrives tomorrow, July 2, and it’s bringing a whole bunch of Top Gear with it.

We’re all coming down from the excitement of the most recent GT Sport World Tour events. Watching both finals come down to last-corner decision was pretty heart-stopping stuff, and top quality entertainment of the kind that the same weekend’s French Grand Prix resoundingly failed to deliver.

If you’re in the mood for trying something new, this week’s Daily Races will be music to your ears.

F1 2019 is now available across the globe. It introduces a variety of new features to Codemasters’ long-standing franchise, including a rather controversial one: microtransactions.

As part of the activities around last weekend’s enthralling GT Sport World Tour action, we were able to have a chat with series creator Kazunori Yamauchi.

Just as the circus descends on the Red Bull Ring — for the quickest laps of the season — F1 2019 has released in all formats across the globe.

Spring has sprung once more in Forza Horizon 4. The new season switch brings fresh events and content for players to go after.

Any discussion of the golden era of ’90s early-polygonal racing games is incomplete without Wipeout. Between its trendy electronic soundtrack, savvy visual direction courtesy of legendary U.K. studio The Designers Republic, and of course its revolutionary floaty-yet-technical gameplay, Wipeout not only defined the early days of the PlayStation — it defined cool for the entire medium.
