Coming to PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 within hours, Polyphony Digital’s new project is not exactly new. 

Polyphony Digital and Sony Interactive Entertainment have announced on the PlayStation Blog that My First Gran Turismo is on its way, and according to Kazunori Yamauchi, president of Polyphony and father of Gran Turismo: “My First Gran Turismo is a special free-to-play invitation to dive into the exhilarating world of motor racing. 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. 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 is designed to be both accessible and immersive, created for everyone, with no limits on age or driving ability. 

It’s not just about playing a game, it’s about embarking on a personal driving journey. We’ve made the experience intuitive, so anyone can get behind the wheel and master the basics like cornering, braking and acceleration. As they play, they’ll build confidence lap by lap, taking on new challenges that will continually hone their driving skills,” Yamauchi wrote. 

Set records, chase achievements, and take on a variety of challenges. There are three race events, three time trials, three music rally stages, as well as a full suite of license tests, all of which allow users to simply experience the thrill of driving. Included are 18 unique cars, each with its own personality. Players will drive them on iconic tracks that some Gran Turismo veterans may find nostalgic, namely the Kyoto Driving Park, Deep Forest Raceway and Trial Mountain Circuit. 

On PlayStation 5, My First Gran Turismo also has full PlayStation VR2 support, allowing you to experience a whole new level of driving realism and highly immersive gameplay. Whether you’re here for the sheer joy of driving or on a quest to master your craft, My First Gran Turismo has everything you need to hone your skills while reveling in the thrill of motorsport. 

My First Gran Turismo is coming to PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 on December 6th. It’s basically a demo version of Gran Turismo 7!
