Gran Turismo Sport Closed Beta Videos

Two weeks ago, Sony Interactive Entertainment and Polyphony Digital officially announced that they would initiate a closed beta test for Gran Turismo Sport starting March 17th. A selected amount of American players did have the opportunity to become part of the first phase of GT Sport Beta test sessions.

Now that the Gran Turismo Sport closed beta is live, MarvinTheGamer shared no less than 9 videos showing us some in-game footage of both the offline and online gaming modes. The included videos showcase a selection of the spectacular cars and tracks that are featured in the Closed Beta. Furthermore, we can have a look at the in-game menus, Tag Heuer timing screens, the Scapes photo mode, replay footage and more.

Looking at the Beta footage, it is clear that the next iteration of the PlayStation’s most popular Racing game will become a huge success. Gorgeous visuals, impressive lighting features, a polished user interface and VR support will all contribute to the game’s immersion. It seems that Gran Turismo Sport will be the best-looking racing game for PS4 so far.

The only thing that seems to be somewhat of a negative is the sound. After the rather disappointing audio featured in the previous GT titles, we had hoped that Polyphony Digital would blow us away with a seriously reworked sound system. In our humble opinion, this seems not to be the case.
