Sony is celebrating PlayStation’s 30th anniversary with a special gift to its community: a free game titled My First Gran Turismo. This marks another exciting moment in a year already full of updates, such as the introduction of retro PS sounds and themes. The free game aims to attract more players to the popular Gran Turismo franchise by offering a simplified experience, serving as an introduction to the acclaimed Gran Turismo 7.
What is My First Gran Turismo?
My First Gran Turismo is designed for players who are new to the series, providing an accessible way to get familiar with the core gameplay mechanics of the full Gran Turismo 7 title. The game lets newcomers experience key elements of the racing simulator in a more straightforward format, creating a bridge to the more complex full version.
The free game is part of Sony’s strategy to expand its Gran Turismo fan base. By offering My First Gran Turismo for free, the company hopes to encourage players to move on to the full Gran Turismo 7, which is currently available at a discounted price of $29.39, as part of the 30th-anniversary celebration.
