3. Two new tracks, Yas Marina Circuit and Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve, will be added.

The following two new tracks will be added.

Yas Marina Circuit

(Length: 5,281m / Elevation Change: 11m / No. of Corners: 16 / Longest Straight: 1,233m)

Set on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi—the capital of the United Arab Emirates—the Yas Marina Circuit is a showcase of modern motorsport design. Framed by a marina, luxury hotels, and world-class theme parks, it winds its way across the island with a deliberate blend of long, breath-opening straights and intricate low-speed technical sections. The track has already been the stage for some unforgettable racing moments, and it remains one of the few circuits in the world that hosts twilight races, carrying drivers from daylight into the glow of evening.

Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve

(Length: 4,361m / Elevation Change: 5m / No. of Corners: 14 / Longest Straight: 1,173m)

Named in honor of the late Canadian F1 star Gilles Villeneuve, Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve first opened in 1978 on Montreal’s Île Notre-Dame. This storied track weaves through a sequence of left-right combinations that demand precision, patience, and a steady rhythm from every driver. Its final chicane is particularly notorious—an unforgiving complex that spits cars out toward the infamous “Wall of Champions,” christened after three world champions met their end there during the 1999 Canadian Grand Prix.

4. Dunlop tires

Originally founded in the United Kingdom and now operating out of Japan, Dunlop joins the roster of featured tire brands. After the update, tires sold in the Tuning Shop—as well as the default rubber on select special vehicles—will carry Dunlop’s signature designs. (With some vehicles excluded.)

5. The Power Pack Pavilion is being added to the World Map.

The Power Pack Pavilion will make its debut on the World Map. After completing Menu Book No. 9, Championship: Tokyo Highway Parade, a sailboat icon will appear in the lower-left corner, signaling its arrival. Exclusively available as paid DLC for PS5, the Power Pack delivers a deeply authentic racing experience—50 races spanning 20 categories, each presented as a full track program with practice, qualifying, and a final race.

6. The Collector Level cap will be raised to 70.

The Collector Level cap will be raised from 50 to 70. For levels gained above 50, players will be rewarded with unlimited invitations for use in Brand Central.

7. New World Circuits events join the list.

9. New Data Logger feature will be introduced.

A new Data Logger feature is being introduced. Available in non-racing modes such as Time Trial, License Center, and Circuit Experience, it allows players to load data from their previous attempts or from replays. You can analyze racing lines, throttle and brake inputs, speed, engine RPM, and more—all displayed in real time to help sharpen your technique.

10. Seasonal Menu will be added to Café.

Four Extra Menus will be added to the Extra Menus section of the Café.
