Gran Turismo Concept: 2002 Tokyo-Seoul

About

Gran Turismo Concept 2002 Tokyo-Seoul is a racing simulator built around real-world cars and tracks. It expands on the original 2001 Japanese release by adding models from the Seoul Motor Show including domestic South Korean brands like Hyundai. Players can race solo or compete locally in split screen or online multiplayer. The focus is on handling and physics with a catalog of high performance vehicles from global manufacturers. The game shipped 90000 copies in South Korea by 2008 reflecting strong local interest. Its split screen mode and inclusion of regional automakers helped differentiate it from earlier Gran Turismo entries. While brief in scope it remains a regional oddity in the series history with accessible mechanics and a solid selection of tracks.
