Ignore IGN and any other gaming review. They are paid reviewers and do not give a good or accurate review of the game.
Make no mistake you are PAYING for a freemium game and not a AAA title. The game costs 70 base for PS5 and has the credit earning mechanics of a freemium game like Clash of Clans. You will spend 15-20 minutes on a race for a laughable amount of 70-80k credits after spending that or more to get your car tuned to the PP requirements for each story/car progression all while have cars cost millions to 10s of millions either forcing you into hundreds of hours of game time or 100s of dollars with cars costing 20-40 dollars each for the race cars. And this is AFTER they "increased" rewards due to back lash.
The routlett tickets are also freemium styled rigged. You will be shown 5 rewards giving you the impression it will be a 1/5 or 20% chance to earn any of the rewards. This is a lie. You will hit the lowest reward for each of the tier (star)1-6? Roughly 75-85% of the time and when a high end reward does land on its 5% you will not hit the car but a useless part for a car you may not even own. Expect car rewards to be around 1-2%. Another horrible system to latch on to people with addictive personalities to get them to spend money for in game currency for cars. That is a typical freemium tactic.
Game play and editing car specs are on par with old GT games so there's no fault there. However I will NEVER recommend this game due to its deceptive freemium system. These Devs should be ashamed of themselves.
Avoid this game
