Only 5 more days left before Sony Interactive Entertainment and developer Polyphony Digital will release the highly anticipated Gran Turismo Sport title for the PlayStation 4.

The Gran Turismo franchise fans will be delighted to hear that the British 3-time Formula 1 World Champion Lewis Hamilton will be appearing in ‘Gran Turismo Sport’ as a racing mentor that will lead and guide the players. In Gran Turismo Sport, Lewis Hamilton will reveal his driving philosophy, techniques, and his way of life through various in-game media, and will inspire players of Gran Turismo Sport to improve their in-game and/or real-world driving skills.

The announcement was accompanied by an introduction trailer featuring a meet-up of Gran Turismo Sport game designer Kazunori Yamauchi and F1 star Lewis Hamilton.

It has been announced that the 3 time F1 World Champion Lewis Hamilton will be appearing in ‘Gran Turismo Sport’ as the mentor and Maestro who will lead and guide the players. The movie “Lewis Hamilton and Gran Turismo Sport – Introduction” has also been released for your viewing.

Comment from Lewis Hamilton – I have been playing Gran Turismo since I was a child, so to actually be part of the gameplay design has been an incredible experience.

 

Comment from Gran Turismo Series Producer Kazunori Yamauchi – From watching Lewis drive on TV all these years, I had an idea of how he might drive, but the experience of watching him drive in person was well beyond my wildest expectations. And I’m really glad to be able to share his driving philosophy with all Gran Turismo players.
