VIRTUAL REALITY SIMULATORS

Gran Turismo VR Driving Simulator

Gran Turismo (ALL AGES) is a series of racing simulation video games developed by Polyphony Digital. Developed for PlayStation systems, Gran Turismo games are intended to emulate the appearance and performance of a large selection of vehicles, nearly all of which are licensed reproductions of real-world automobiles. Since the franchise's debut in 1997, over 85 million units have been sold worldwide for the PlayStation, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation Portable, making it the highest selling video game franchise under the PlayStation brand.

Ace Combat Flight Simulator

Prior to the Ace Combat franchise's creation, Namco developed an arcade flight game titled Air Combat. Released in 1992, it was followed in 1995 by a revision called Air Combat 22. While not truly part of the Ace Combat franchise, these games are considered to be its direct predecessors. As of 2018, the Ace Combat franchise has sold over 14 million copies, making it Bandai Namco's sixth best-selling franchise.
