It’s that time again: time for another in GTPlanet’s series of test drives. We last took the Audi Vision Gran Turismo duo for a spin, and the entire new Porsche lineup of Project CARS 2 before that. Next up: Forza Motorsport 7’s March car pack.

Turn 10 has given the Forza 7 Specialty Dealer its weekly refresh. On offer this week is a second chance at the second-gen Civic Type R hatchback, alongside three other returning models.

My relationship with esports is pretty complex. In all honesty, I’ve always had an indifference towards the idea of competitive gaming since it hooked its flag onto extreme brands like Mountain Dew and energy drinks. It’s pretty much the anti-thesis of what sport is all about, so this was one of a few reasons that I didn’t care for it. However, in recent years, the field has matured with professional organizations and established championships. Hell, even the Olympic Committee is starting to take notice.

Focus Home Interactive (FHI) is bringing another free DLC pack to Spintires: Mudrunner. Sporting the name “Ridge” it will add a new map for sim off-roaders to explore sometime in May.

With all of GT Sport’s updates recently, we might forgive you expecting something new in the Mileage Exchange update car selection. Sadly, you’re not going to get one, as this week’s update returns to the start of the cycle, with the Corvette Gr.3 Road Car.

Fancy yourself quick in Eden Game’s Gear.Club mobile game? If so, a drive in a real-world Formula One car could be in your future.

Alongside the documented changes found in the latest GT Sport update, there are naturally some hidden features to be found too. These can be minor tweaks here and there but this time around, there’s something that’s certainly of note. It looks like GT Sport could be getting a car “ticket” system in the near-future.

Do you think you have what it takes to beat some of the best sim racers in the world? If so, then the ADAC Sim Racing Trophy is just the place for you to prove it.

The Detroit Grand Prix circuit is heading to iRacing this June.

Speed. It’s as simple as that for this, our fifteenth GT Sport Photo Mode Competition here at GTPlanet.

The surprise cars found in the files of Forza Motorsport 7 have thrown up more interesting machines, with the discovery of two new cars. Last week, we reported on sixteen cars being found deep in the game’s code.

The brand new BMW M2 Competition is making its virtual debut in CSR Racing 2. This debut comes just a little more than a week after BMW took the wraps off the car at the 2018 Auto China show last week.

If you’re aiming to collect many, if not all 770 cars in Forza Motorsport 7 you’re going to need a lot of credits. Luckily, we have you covered and the task at hand is easier to manage than you’d imagine.

Gamers waiting for GT Sport’s FIA series to get underway need wait no more. We have a starting date, and it kicks off with a rather special live event.

Polyphony Digital has released a new game update for GT Sport, adding Toyota’s latest Supra concept car as expected.

If you are waiting for a deal to pick up Gran Turismo Sport, now is a great time to do so. That is if you buy your games from the UK PSN Store.

We’re going big for this, the latest of GTPlanet’s Forza Motorsport 7 Photo Mode Competitions. How big, you ask? Oh, only the largest, heaviest vehicle in the game.

You may have already heard about the upcoming GT Sport patch. Polyphony will be updating its 2017 sim racer on Friday, but a change to user profiles on the official site may offer a hint of what that could entail.

We’re back for this week’s Specialty Dealer refresh in Forza 7. Like the week before it, this is your second chance at two relatively new cars.

We’ve been expecting it for a little while, but an in-game notification has revealed the date for the next GT Sport update.
