Gran Turismo Sport is less than two weeks away, but in the mean time Polyphony Digital plans to hold an open beta event beginning on Monday the 9th of October, running through until Thursday the 12th.

With the recently released Project Cars 2 and Xbox exclusive Forza Motorsport 7, the heat is on for Polyphony Digital to produce a solid racer for the critically acclaimed Gran Turismo franchise.

Gran Turismo Sport already had a closed beta for a lucky small amount of PlayStation 4 owners, but it looks like Polyphony Digital are wanting to give the public a chance to scrutinise certain aspects of the game before its launch so they can have a working patch ready for launch or soon after.
