The popular Twin Ring Motegi circuit is coming back to the Gran Turismo game series. Takayuki Aoki, a long-time racer in Super GT, shared this news.
Motegi, now called Mobility Resort Motegi, was in Gran Turismo games like GT4 and GT5 as a paid add-on. But it wasn’t in GT Sport. The oval track at Motegi was special. It had a 1.5-mile oval on top of a road course.
This layout made it unique. The real Gran Turismo Cafe is also there, but it doesn’t look like the one in GT7.

After GT5 came out, a big earthquake hit Japan. Motegi might have been damaged, so the oval track wasn’t used for races after that. But Motegi still hosts races for Super GT and Super Formula.
Even though Super Formula works with Gran Turismo, Motegi wasn’t in the game. But Aoki says that might change. A fan asked if Motegi is coming to Gran Turismo, and Aoki said someone working on the game told him they’re making it happen.

This doesn’t mean Motegi will be in the game, or when it’ll come. GT7 has been out for a while, and updates to add new tracks are rare. But it’s likely Motegi is on the list of tracks Polyphony Digital, the game’s developer, wants to add. And any damage to the oval track probably won’t stop it from being in the game.
