An old classic is making a return to an arcade (hopefully!) near you. SEGA Amusements today heralded the return of the Daytona USA franchise with its latest entry: Daytona 3 Championship USA! The iconic arcade racer has seen a long drought, with the last original title releasing 15 years ago. The wait is over, ladies and gentlemen … start your engines!

Today marks an important anniversary for console gaming as a whole. You see, it was on November 14 a decade-and-a-half ago that Microsoft entered the ring with the first Xbox.

With Gran Turismo Sport being shown off in gaming shows all around the world, off-screen gameplay videos are coming thick and fast. Last week we had a look at the SRT Hellcat on Brands Hatch in an off-screen direct audio capture, and MotoGamesTV have shared more sound-centric gameplay for us to get our teeth into. This time, it’s the Bugatti Vision GT on Northern Isle Raceway — Polyphony’s fantasy oval exclusive to GT Sport.

Gamers looking to get behind the squared-off wheel of an F1 car have just had another option added to the list. Shortly after releasing F1 2016 on PS4, Xbox One, and PC platforms earlier this year, Codemasters announced plans to bring the title to mobile platforms. That day has arrived, with a catch: so far, only iOS users have access to the mobile version.

The launch of the Xbox One S has been a resounding success for Microsoft. In the UK, the console has outsold the PS4 for the past 4 months despite Sony’s stronghold on the home console market. Had your eye on the HDR-ready Xbox revision? A promotion between Forza Horizon 3 and Amazon’s The Grand Tour may be able to help if you live in the US of A.

In spite of his heroic efforts displayed on track this year in the Super GT series, the top step of the podium eluded Jann Mardenborough this past weekend. After missing the 2016 All-Japan F3 title by a narrow margin, a very similar scenario befell the GT Academy grad at Motegi. Ater two back-to-back 250 km races at the circuit, Jann and his co-driver Kazuki Hoshino settled their team B-Max NDDP GT-R at 4th position in the GT300 class.

This weekend we’re going to find out the new title-holders of the 2016 Super GT season. The races designated to conclude another season of this stimulating touring series will be held at Twin Ring Motegi course, with both Saturday and Sunday featuring 250km races. Our eyes will be on Jann Mardenborough and Kazuki Hoshino, who are one step away from winning the GT300 title. Can it happen?

In case you couldn’t tell from the headline and featured photo, this weekend’s round of Forza Horizon 3 Forzathon challenges encourage drivers to do one thing: log some flight time.

Assetto Corsa has had a tough start on consoles. Whilst bringing a fantastic experience in relation to it’s wheel force feedback and physics, the lack of options and features have bugged some of the fans who want to do more than just hot lap. That looks set to change however, as a recent post over on the official Assetto Corsa community forum has highlighted that private lobbies for online play are being worked on as we speak.

Sony’s big end-of-year event is fast approaching. The PlayStation Experience, held December 3 and 4 in Anaheim, California, is a rare opportunity for gamers to go hands-on with a wide collection of the company’s offerings and hear from the developers. This year, the list of 60+ studios includes Polyphony Digital.

In a game designed for online competition, the announcement of rally racing in Gran Turismo Sport came as a bit of a surprise. Although rally first appeared in Gran Turismo 2 — and has introduced real-world rally champions to the sport — off-road racing has always felt like a bit of an afterthought in GT games.

Confirmed earlier this year just days before E3, and revealed 12 weeks later by Andrew House, Sony’s better-equipped PS4 console with the intent of ushering in a new era has arrived: enter PlayStation 4 Pro.

It would not be the end of a calendar year without the proverbial “best of” lists; and, lo and behold, one such list has emerged with a contender from the racing genre in the mix.

Way back in June after the Copperbox reveal event, we first broke the news that GT Sport’s sound design would be composed with an entirely new system. Then just recently we reported Eurogamer’s impressions on the game that included some high praise about improvements in the in-game audio. This area has never been the strongest suit in the GT franchise but that looks to be changing as we take a look at the above direct audio capture video uploaded by MotoGamesTV.

So, you have a PC and are unsure if Forza Horizon 3’s open-world automotive adventure across Australia is the kind of game for you? Good news: a free demo has finally arrived!

Last week offered quite an explosion of information on not just the PS4 Pro, but GT Sport. For the first time since the delay announcement at the end of summer, Polyphony was on hand at a demonstration of its upcoming game, sharing details on what’s achievable on the new, more powerful hardware. Chief amongst these revelations was our first look at VR in GT Sport, tempered by the news it would be limited to a dedicated “VR Tour Mode“.

The Forza Racing Championship started its second season last month in the open-world arcade racer that is Horizon 3. This week, the competition returns to Turn 10’s sim-oriented Motorsport title, offering players the first challenge that could lead to one lucky person finishing the year off $10,000 USD richer.

Talk about being blind-sided: Turn 10’s Brian Ekberg has made it clear that racers with Windows 10 PC’s have more to look forward to with Forza Motorsport 6 Apex released earlier this year.

November should prove a treat for PlayStation Plus subscribers who enjoy the racing genre, with Codemasters’ 2011 classic DiRT 3 being one of the PlayStation 3’s free games for players to enjoy. The rally racer joins Costume Quest 2 on Sony’s last generation console, and for those looking to scratch a muddy itch on the PS3, this could prove just the trick.
