He the early launch of My First Gran Turismo It’s, like every other title in the saga, a great moment to remember (yes, I know, I’ve already become Grandpa Onion) the impact many of us experienced when we came into contact with the first Gran Turismo more than 25 years ago, title for the first generation PlayStation. The experience was a revelation, a demonstration of how realistic graphics can be (yes, it can be seen now, it is clearly anachronistic, but it was revolutionary in its time). After that, each installment raised the bar, in some cases by a lot, from its predecessor, enthralling us more and more until it became the great legacy of the genre that it is to this day.

And what does this new title consist of? Is this a new generation of saga? Not really. My First Gran Turismo is designed to appeal to both new and nostalgic players a simplified version of Gran Turismo 7 that will include a selection classic cars, circuits and events from the saga. It will be available for free for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 users and acts as an extended demo released to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Sony’s console.

As I mentioned at the beginning, based on my personal experience, Gran Turismo was one of the most famous franchises in history video games. Since its debut in 1997, it has stood out for its realism and attention to detail and has become the benchmark in driving simulators. With more than 90 million copies sold, the series has managed to maintain its relevance throughout the PlayStation generations, offering immersive experiences to car enthusiasts and casual gamers alike.
