Gran Turismo 5 'Academy Edition' racing to stores on September 26

4.7
This fall marks two years since Polyphony Digital's latest Gran Turismo screeched onto retailer shelves, and four years since the company partnered with Nissan on its GT Academy. As a result, the developer's celebrating with a special edition release of Gran Turismo 5 – "Academy Edition" – replete with the various car packs released since the launch in 2010.

More specifically, you'll also get Polyphony Digital creative lead Kazunori Yamauchi's fancy Nissan GTR that he raced in real life during the most recent Nurburgring 24-hour race. If you bought it in real life, it'd cost like a trillion dollars, so this is probably the best way to get access.

When the "Academy Edition" of Gran Turismo 5 launches this September 26, it'll cost €29.99/£19.99. The game doesn't have a price or launch date in the US just yet, but we expect to hear more on that front in the coming days.

I prefer Forza over NFS but, to say they're better than GT? I dunno about that.

upd8 I'm definitely going to be getting this game. Although I don't love all racing games, this series was really good.


I never played these, only grid and need for speed. GT series good?


yeah, is the GT series good? i've only played Need for Speed
