The latest official WRC title will offer an interesting preorder bonus for eager buyers — a Porsche 911 GT3 RS. Announced today via the series’ official Twitter account, players will be able to drive the R-GT racer day one.

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’s official: day-to-night transitions are coming to iRacing. A short video on the official Youtube channel confirms it, though that isn’t the only improvement coming to the service.

Last weekend, lucky gamers and members of the press had their first opportunity to try Sega World Drivers Championship, an upcoming arcade racer developed in a close partnership with Super GT.

A short video showcasing GT Sport’s color range has also given us a glimpse of the new Alsace Village circuit.

Slightly Mad Studios has released a new Project CARS 2 trailer showing off its selection of Ferraris. Players will be able to drive 10 of the Prancing Horse’s finest.

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.

Turn 10 Studios has revealed the latest batch of cars set for inclusion in this year’s Forza Motorsport 7. It’s a big one, focusing exclusively on the Far East.

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.

Early GT Sport menu images revealed a strange icon that has caused some chatter on the GTPlanet forums. The recent deluge of gameplay videos may finally answer what that symbol is about.

RaceRoom is joining the Porsche party. Nine race cars from the famed German marque are making their way to Sector3 Studio’s simulator in the next year, and the first three will arrive before the end of 2017.

Studio 397 have released a number of images showing off the upcoming McLaren 650S GT3 DLC for rFactor 2. Built entirely in-house, the 650S GT3 debuted in the McLaren-sponsored World’s Faster Gamer eSports competition.

As the fantastical, arcade-minded sibling of the Forza Motorsport series, Forza Horizon has received some pretty weird cars in its history. It started innocently enough, with a couple rides plucked out of The Fast and The Furious. Then Horizon 3 received Halo’s Warthog. More recently we got Hot Wheels cars, and at this point it seems all bets are off. Apparently, anything is possible in the Outback.

Fresh from the recent deluge of GT Sport content, another gameplay video has given us a first look at one of the game’s new circuits.

It’s the last weekend of July, and we know what that means for Forza Horizon 3 players. The latest batch of Forzathon events are upon us, running from now until Sunday evening.

Photo Mode has been a major aspect of the Gran Turismo franchise since GT4. As revealed by the recent media blowout, Polyphony Digital has given the venerable eye-candy mode a few choice upgrades for Gran Turismo Sport.

Forza Motorsport 7 features the largest collection of cars in the genre this generation. With over 700 options, ranging from pre-war open-wheelers to 2017’s Le Mans winner, it offers unparalleled variety. That’s a lot to keep track of though — so we’re here to help.
