Gran Turismo Sport owners better rev up those engines as developer Polyphony Digital announced today that online services for its 2017 racing sim will shut down early next year.<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

In a new blog post<\/a> on the official Gran Turismo website, Polyphony revealed that online services for Gran Turismo Sport will shut down on January 31, 2024. After that date, Gran Turismo Sport players will no longer have access to online services, including Open Lobby, Garage Car Liveries, and Sport Mode, so if you have any trophies that require online play you have yet to unlock, the clock is ticking. Offline modes, such as splitscreen multiplayer, the main single-player campaign, World Circuits, and time trials will still be accessible. <\/p>\n

Prior to online services shutting down, the over 200 in-game vehicles<\/a> you can buy via the PlayStation Store<\/a> will no longer be available for sale starting on December 1 of this year. And any add-ons purchased prior to December 1 can still be used in-game.<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

Gran Turismo Sport was released exclusively for the PlayStation 4 almost six years ago to the date. It was one of two Gran Turismo games made for Sony’s eighth-generation gaming console, along with 2022’s Gran Turismo 7<\/a>, which was released last year on PS4 and PS5. Gran Turismo Sport is also a noteworthy entry as it was the first in the series to support virtual reality and the only game in the series to support the original PlayStation VR<\/a>. However, the VR functionality was limited to a VR Tour Mode.<\/p>\n

In our review of Gran Turismo Sport, which we scored a 7.5 out of 10<\/a>, we said: “GT Sport looks great, feels good, and the online racing is well done, but it’s just not as complete as its competitors.” <\/p>\n
