Less than a week remains until the release of Forza Horizon 4. Before the game releases on October 2, Ultimate Edition owners will have first crack at the game. When, you ask? This Friday, and for some the fated day can’t arrive soon enough.

We’re days out from the release of Forza Horizon 4, and the festival is only the beginning. With so much to take in, the fourth installment may be a little overwhelming at first. With launch day on the horizon (pun intended), it’s time to look at what the future holds.

It’s teased us, it’s confused us, but Codemasters has finally dropped the bombshell. The next game in the DiRT series is officially on its way.

The last week has been pretty exciting for Gran Turismo Sport players, and it all comes to a head today with the launch of the game’s latest update, version 1.28. Weighing in at 3.7GB, it sees the return of a popular Japanese race track, nine new cars, new GT League events, new scapes, and more.

It’s been a long time since we saw a game featuring the world’s most grueling race, but Bigmoon Entertainment has finally brought the challenge back into our living rooms. After a brief delay, Dakar ’18 is finally available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Steam.

A new trailer for the upcoming 1.28 update for Gran Turismo Sport hit the web today, and it reveals even more new cars that are set to arrive in the game while giving us an even better look at the content we already knew about.

Painters rejoice! This week’s Mileage Exchange is another spray of new hues, along with a refresh of other minor items.

“Where do they go from here?”

Just a week after Codemasters published (and then pulled) a mysterious pizza website full of references to Colin McRae and Petter Solberg, we’ve got a more overt teaser in the form of suggestive posts from a variety of official Twitter accounts.

We’re only just coming down from the excitement of the second GT World Tour event and already there’s more GT Sport content on the way.

If you’ve been following GTPlanet and the world of sim-racing for a while, you have seen your fair share of competitive racing esports events.

The latest Gran Turismo Sport “World Tour” event has been quite a show in Salzburg, Austria today. In addition to some great racing, Polyphony Digital used the live stream to show off a freshly-updated Fuji Speedway track and an assortment of new cars, including the NSX Type R, Nissan 300ZX, and Porsche 911 GT3 (997).

The GT Sport World Tour is going on right this moment in Austria, and it’s provided our very first look at the newest circuit in the game.

A group of the fastest Gran Turismo Sport players from around the world have descended on Salzburg, Austria this weekend to compete in Polyphony Digital’s second “World Tour” exhibition event of the year.

With still a week to go before Forza Horizon 4 gets its initial release, more cars are already showing up.

Developer Milestone has some bad news for two-wheel fans looking forward to Ride 3. The bike title has moved further down the calendar, with a new release date of November 30.

Has it been nearly two years already? You know what they say, time flies when you’re having fun. That’s the operative word when we take a look at Forza Horizon: fun.

Sony recently took the cover off the PlayStation Classic: a miniature game console built to look just like the original PlayStation — all the way down to the packaging itself. It’s been updated for 2018, though, with an HDMI port and controllers that connect via (what appears to be) USB.

Another real-world track is returning to the Gran Turismo franchise. Fuji Speedway is coming to Gran Turismo Sport, and it’s only a matter of days before we get a chance to see it.

There’s little denying iRacing is one of the most acclaimed PC sim racing games on the market. With its focus on realism and competitive racing, it appeals to a large number of sim enthusiasts. All that said, it isn’t for everyone.
