Gran Turismo Sport gets release date; Limited Edition and Pre-Order bonus details here

Back in October of last year we heard that Gran Turismo Sport would be hitting PlayStation 4 consoles with a couple new features. One of these features are new championship modes that, for the first time ever, will be recognized by the FIA, which means that during the official FIA prize giving event, champions from Gran Turismo Sport's competitions will be announced alongside real-world racers like Formula One racer Lewis Hamilton.

In addition to that, there would be two championships throughout the year, Nation Cup and Manufacturer Fan Cup.

It's finally time for GT Sport to make its release! On November 15th, 2016 GT Spot will officially hit the PS4.

Simply pre-ordering the game will get you early access to a 3-car pack:

• Ford Mustang Group B Rally Car
