A free trial version of Gran Turismo 7 launches this week

Sony will release a free trial version of Gran Turismo 7 this week.

Titled My First Gran Turismo, it will be available for PS4 and PS5 through the PlayStation Store, starting on December 6 at 12am local time.

My First Gran Turismo includes three Race Events, three Time Trials, three Music Rally stages, plus a full suite of License Tests.

It also has 18 cars and the tracks available include Kyoto Driving Park, Deep Forest Raceway, and Trial Mountain Circuit. 

The PS5 version includes full PlayStation VR2 support too.

“This experience holds a special place in my heart, as it pays tribute to the origins of the first Gran Turismo, where players of all generations discovered the joys of driving,” Polyphony Digital president and Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi said in a PlayStation Blog post.

“Whether it’s introducing kids to the joy of racing for the first time or reigniting a forgotten passion for driving, My First Gran Turismo was designed to be both approachable and immersive, created for everyone, with no limits on age or driving skill level.”

“This isn’t just about playing a game; it’s about embarking on a personal driving journey,” Yamauchi added. “We’ve made sure the experience is intuitive, allowing anyone to get behind the wheel and master the essentials, such as cornering, braking, and acceleration. By playing it, users will build confidence one lap at a time, tackling new challenges that’ll steadily refine their driving skills.”
