All Evidence Points to an Immersive Racing Experience in Gran Turismo Sport
We are racing closer to the release of Gran Turismo Sport; such is what we deduced  since Sony has just revealed new content at the Geneva Motor Show. Their latest entry in the popular racing series is gearing up its release on the PS4 and PS4 Pro, and fans can witness for themselves the stunning, dead-defying races as they’ll appear on console. Watch the new trailer below:
With stunning visuals and lighting, the amount of work gone into development is on display. Gran Turismo Sport has been optimized for HDR and will most likely serve another pillar for the PS4 Pro. It might also explain the delay from its initial release last year. In addition, supplementing their focus on an immersive racing experience, Sony has announced its partnership with TAG Heuer; the Swiss company shall serve as the game’s official timekeeper.
“On the 8th of March 2017, at the TAG Heuer booth at the 87th Geneva International Motor Show, it was announced that TAG Heuer would be the official timekeeper for Gran Turismo Sport. TAG Heuer will appear as the official timekeeper and official watch of Gran Turismo Sport in all areas of the game, and TAG Heuer’s Live Timing technology will be used to provide players with an experience that’s just the same as real motor racing.
“TAG Heuer has a long history of partnerships with some of the greatest legends in motorsports, and Gran Turismo Sport is attempting to redefine the next century in the history of motorsports. Please enjoy a small selection of images, designed to represent the worldview envisaged by this collaboration.”
Moreover, a new series of screenshots was released that you can check out below:
While we still don’t know the game’s release date, we know developers are hard at work to deliver a premium experience when it hits shelves. We gathered as much from the 140 cars they announced would be available upon launch. With so many beautiful vehicles and stunning races on the fringes of sanity, it is clear we have much to look forward to.
