The Gran Turismo 7 competitive landscape is expanding through various global esports events and in-game updates. In mid-August 2026, the World Series Round 2 was scheduled to broadcast from Polyphony Digital’s Tokyo studio, featuring pre-recorded races for the Manufacturers Cup and Nations Cup to replace a cancelled Abu Dhabi opener.

By late August, the focus shifted toward new weekly Daily Races and a regional challenge in Singapore. Sony announced the Gran Turismo 7 Challenge at the Sony Store in Singapore, running from September 5 to 27, 2026. This event allows participants to compete for tickets to the GT World Series Singapore Round, which is set to take place at Marina Bay Sands on October 3, 2026.
