Gran Turismo released more details today about its 25th Anniversary celebrations, including more details about the update to come on Thursday.
Players will be glad to finally get a new track in the form of Road Atlanta (the info was leaked by the german version of the Gran Turismo website).
The Ferrari VGT, teased yesterday, is also confirmed to be a part of this update, although it won't be available right away. In an effort to increase engagement with their esports series and broadcasts, Gran Turismo will offer in-game rewards for answering correctly several sets of questions about the World Finals broadcasts. those rewards include in-game credits, parts and engine tickets, and an early access to the Ferrari VGT on December 15th. The car itself will be revealed during Sunday's stream.
Additionally, you can once again log in the game and try to predict who will win each competition to get an extra credits bonus, but this time, there will also be another way to boost your virtual bank account. From November 24th to December 5th, Sport Mode races will have a 2x, 5x or 10x multiplier on their usual rewards, depending on the type of event. A special section will even allow people to take part in races recreating the World Final events after the champions are crowned - doing so will give you a special edition of the RedBull X2019. The custom liveries used during the event will also be made available through the recommended tab of the search function.
The competitions will be hosted over 4 days, with each livestream featuring special moments, such as another Sophy AI showcase race and guests such as sir Lewis Hamilton, who will probably be racing in a promotional race against some of the competitors. All live streams can be seen on the Gran Turismo YouTube channel at 8:00am PST (1600 UTC) each day.
