The game has 30 tracks and 1,200 cars to choose from. Among the other circuits new to the series are Willow Springs International Motorsports Park, Ascari Race Resort, and ones based in a sports stadium, in addition to several ones based in the Matterhorn, including the one near Riffelsee.
As well as some tracks featuring variable weather and time of day, there is also a dynamic celestial sphere, so that stars in the night sky have accurate positions. With this, there is also a feature where players can drive at Hadley Rille on the moon with the Lunar Rover.
The Top Gear test track, which appeared in Gran Turismo 5, doesn't return in the game due to the show's partnership with the Forza Motorsport franchise for the Xbox consoles.
