Gran Turismo Sport

Overview

Gran Turismo Sport boasts the best realistic online racing experience, but those looking for something offline with a career will want to look elsewhere. This game is Kazunori Yamauchi’s vision of e-sports racing as it includes the ability to achieve a real FIA license. He truly provides the tools to turn players into literal racing drivers.

Gran Turismo Sport is undoubtedly a very fine driving game indeed. But it does have provisos. If you're a hardcore online racing-game enthusiast, and have a home setup with a steering wheel and pedals along with a PlayStation Plus account (a requirement...

GT Sport is the first game in the franchise that has taken a new direction, which did bring in a fresh breath of air in terms of overall experience. The game shines most in the online modes where races and challenges can get exciting and challenging....

Slightly above average or simply inoffensive. Fans of the genre should enjoy it a bit, but a fair few will be left unfulfilled. How we score: The destructoid reviews...

Gran Turismo Sport debuts on the PS4 without a number in its name, signaling a shift for this long running car racing franchise. While the simulation is still very good, and the presentation is top notch, the lack of content in both single player and...

Gran Turismo Sport is a good game, and yet, it's still a disappointment. Given this series' pedigree, good simply isn't good enough. GT Sport still brings it on the track, but its lack of content can't be ignored, and you can't give the game top marks...

Regardless of its foibles, let this installment be the start of a real commitment by Polyphony Digital to online racing – one that is folded into the main series' career mode and which is not just a temporary dabble like the track creator of GT 5 or the dynamic time/weather and race clubs of GT 6. GT Sport has enough qualities that it should be the start of something better and not just a detour for the franchise.

In many ways, GT Sport is the most polished Gran Turismo game in over a decade. It looks great, feels great, and what's here has been carefully and well executed. However, while I can forgive the sprinkling of eccentric nonsense, the lack of car and...

In many ways Gran Turismo Sport feels like a blast from the past, with modern graphics acting as the fuel propelling it. While keeping the obsession with cars and the joy of tuning them intact, Gran Turismo Sport adds some new elements, both welcome and...

Buy it if you want a competitive racer that's willing to hold your hand while you take your time honing your skills. Don't buy it if you're more into building massive collections of your favorite cars, or if you only ever playing by yourself. If that's...

There's no shortage of top-tier first-party racing games on the Xbox One thanks to the likes of Forza Motorsport 7 and Forza Horizon 3, but the same can't be said about the PlayStation 4. It has been four years since the release of Gran Turismo 6, and...

Gran Turismo Sport is worthy of the name and a great driving simulator, but a lack of content compared to what the series usually offers makes it a curious beast. If you love Polyphony Digital's approach and cars, however, it will still tick a lot of...

After a few hours behind the wheel, it's difficult to see what Gran Turismo Sport does to stand out when the grid is filled with so many competitors. Forza Motorsport has stepped up to the plate on Xbox One in GT's absence, ultra-serious racer Assetto...
