As we head into the weekend, we’re also about to start the fourth week of the closed beta for Gran Turismo Sport. Originally limited to US players only (before quietly expanding to Canada and Latin America), it looks like other regions will soon get a chance to take Polyphony Digital’s racer out for a spin.

Polyphony have pulled the trigger on the latest Seasonal Events for Gran Turismo 6. This week’s events take you to three well-paced technical circuits where attack speeds are the key to victory. Three challenge levels cover this week’s events, giving you a choice of capable sporting metal.

Gran Turismo Sport is set to launch later this year with a variety of classes roughly based on real-world motorsports. It looks like another class might be destined for Polyphony Digital’s upcoming racer, one where how you get around the lap is more important than how fast.

As EU Gran Turismo fans wait patiently for Phase Two of the GT Sport closed beta, those in Britain will be getting their first chance at taking the VR mode of the game for a spin next weekend at Insomnia i60.

While it may have only become available two weeks ago, there’s a lot of footage of the Gran Turismo Sport beta out there now. The amount of videos has only grown as more and more people have gained access to Polyphony’s upcoming sim racer. We’ve rounded up a few of the best examples to give those waiting for access a better idea of what to expect.

The Gran Turismo Sport beta is out in the wild for US fans of the series. Feedback has generally been quite positive, but one notable individual has a bone to pick with developer Polyphony Digital about the car roster: the 45th President of the United States of America.

Today marks two weeks since the Gran Turismo Sport Closed Beta Test Version first went live. While initially restricted to US PSN accounts only, Polyphony Digital has promised an expansion to other regions — specifically the EU — as part of Phase Two.

Over the next several days, residents of South Korea will be able to test drive the latest version of GT Sport at the 2017 South Korea Motor Show. Open to the public from March 31 to April 9, the grandiose automotive show will host over 380 exhibitors, ranging from parts and accessories suppliers to various well-known car manufacturers.

Polyphony has pulled the trigger on the latest Seasonal Events for Gran Turismo 6. This week’s events are a combination of time trial and drifting challenges, testing your mettle at a variety of racing venues. Whether it be tuned or purpose-built racing machines, this week’s events have a little bit of something for everyone.

Ever since the Copper Box event for Gran Turismo Sport last May, fans have been eager to learn more about the mysterious Thrustmaster wheel that was on display. We’ve now got a closer look at what to expect — but not, crucially, when we can experience it ourselves.

Heading to Boston this weekend for PAX East? If yes then you’ll have the chance to try out Polyphony Digital’s upcoming racer, which has been confirmed by the PlayStation Blog to be playable alongside other games at the PlayStation booth.
