The latest Forza Monthly livestream has given us a sneak peek in to what to expect in the Series 17 update for Forza Horizon 4.

The anniversaries are coming thick and fast right now. PlayStation itself racked up a quarter century earlier in the month, but today is a rather special anniversary indeed — particularly for us here at GTPlanet. Gran Turismo 2 celebrates its 20th birthday today.

It’s almost a Christmas tradition now. In the family downtime during the holidays, someone busts out the board games and a perfectly civil evening becomes a blazing row over landing on a hotel or going to jail. Yes, it’s the Christmas Monopoly argument, during which marriages are broken and in-laws become outlaws.

At the end of 2018, the folks at Hooncorp from Auckland, New Zealand, announced that they would be partnering with GTPlanet. The hope was to put together a racing team made up entirely of members from this fine community. Their goal was simple: to survive the biggest race in grassroots endurance racing, the 24 Hours of Lemons.

March 2019 doesn’t seem all that long ago. That was when Kazunori Yamauchi took to the stage in Paris, adjacent to the Federation Internationale de l’Automobile headquarters itself, to reveal the plans for the 2019 FIA season.

In case you missed the news, Sony’s PlayStation celebrated its 25th birthday last week. Throughout the generations, the PlayStation has often been a platform leader when it comes to technology. Of the four Sony consoles released, the PS3 stands out among them.

A new GT Sport update will be greeting players as they turn on their consoles today. Coming in at 159.9MB in size, it’s not the chunkiest update we’ve seen, and there’s good reason for that.

The phrase “it’s like a race car for the road” is a little overused these days, but in the case of McLaren’s new 620R it’s about as close to the truth as you can get.

This week’s GT Sport Daily Races will see you take a grand tour of some of the game’s real-world circuits — and some of those added to the game since launch.

There’s another new GT Sport update coming along this week, barely two weeks on from the previous one. However, whereas v1.50 was packed to the gills with goodies, this update looks to be a little more routine.

Champions of motorsport from across the world will gather tonight at The Louvre in Paris in a celebration of the sport in all its forms. The Federation International de l’Automobile (FIA) will honor everyone who has won an FIA-certified event in any discipline, in its annual Prize-Giving ceremony.

They call it ‘The Split’. In 1996, the burgeoning pinnacle of American open wheel racing, Indy Car, fractured into two rival series: the Indy Racing League; and CART, which stood for Championship Auto Racing Teams.

The 2019 F1 Esports New Balance Pro Series finals took place in London earlier in the week. After a pretty tight battle, Italy’s David Tonizza took the title driving for the debutant Ferrari team.

This week’s GT Sport Time Trials are somewhat of a change from the previous fortnight. You’ll be tackling a very small track in a very small car (well, by modern standards), and something much faster somewhere much faster.

The season of goodwill has begun, meaning Winter has made its return to Forza Horizon 4. The festive seasonal switch sprinkles a new helping of content and events across the UK.

The next 12 months is likely to be one long tease for gamers on both sides of the mainstream console wall. Both Sony and Microsoft are getting ready to launch their next-gen consoles around this time next year, to ignite another round of console wars.

2018 GT Sport Nations Cup champion Igor Fraga is continuing his real-world motorsports development. To start the 2020 season, he’s heading down to New Zealand to race in the Toyota Racing Series.

The first trailer for James Bond’s 25th outing, No Time To Die, is now live. If you haven’t seen it already, we only have one question: what are you waiting for?

The F1 Esports New Balance Pro Series reaches its climax this evening, and for the first time in three years there’ll be a new champion lifting the trophy.

‘Tis the season to be streaming. With the holiday season in the air, Sony has added some new games to its PlayStation Now cloud gaming service. For sim-racing fans, one game in particular stands out among the others.
