  Gran Turismo 7 is nearing its second birthday, but Sony and Polyphony Digital are giving the game a bit of a revamp via the new “Spec II” update. This update will add a variety of new content, including 7 vehicles and the new Lake Louise track set in the Canadian Rockies, but it also offers a variety of other features as well, including new challenges, an updated version of the GT Sophy racing AI, and 4-player splitscreen multiplayer on PS5. You can check out a trailer for the Gran Turismo 7 Spec II update, below.

  Here's a rundown of the 7 new cars coming to the game.

  “The moment you've been waiting for has finally arrived with the addition of the Lake Louise snow track. Nestled at the base of the World Heritage Canadian Rockies, this Gran Turismo original offers a one-of-a-kind snow track experience set within a captivating mountainous fantasy ski resort setting.

  The "Long Track" boasts an array of challenges, from low-speed and high-speed corners to an adrenaline-pounding long straightaway. It's the perfect choice for those seeking to their driving skills on challenging terrain. The "Short Track" is for those who prefer a twisty layout with consecutive corners that will put your cornering techniques to the ultimate test. There's even a "Tri-Oval" layout with only three corners, encouraging you to go nearly flat out all the way around. All three tracks are on packed snow and include lighting for night sessions. And, you'll need to equip your car with "snow tires" to drive these tracks.”

  Finally, here’s some information on the new challenges you can tackle.

  “Prepare for an exciting evolution at the World Circuits Pavilion, where you'll embark on a thrilling journey through the heart of racing in Europe, the Americas, and Asia. In Spec II, five standard and two expert level races will be added. And, the "Arcade Race" will become the easier-to-use 'Quick Race.' Also, in addition to the standard AI features, the PS5 version of the game will allow you to take on Gran Turismo Sophy, the prototype revolutionary racing AI agent that's causing a worldwide sensation in the driving-game genre.

  And that's not all, a new Event Directory menu will allow you to easily search and join races from a list, while a new feature in Weekly Challenges will award prizes for clearing all of the races in the section. The Weekly Challenges menu will appear after watching the end movie, and the events will change to a new set every week. A new Master License level will be added to the License Center Pavilion, where you can learn the basics of sports driving. From the application of basic controls, 50 new difficult tests await you after you clear the Normal License protocol.”

  Gran Turismo 7 can be played on PS4 and PS5. The Spec II update launches tomorrow (November 2).
