Sim Racer Project Motor Racing Is Free to Play All This Week on PS5, No PS Plus Required

Project Motor Racing, a simulation racing game by Giants Software, is available for free on PlayStation 5 this week as a limited-time promotional trial. Normally priced at $49.99 USD (£44.99 GBP), the full game can be played at no cost from October 26 through November 1, 2026, without requiring an active PlayStation Plus subscription.

This free trial period offers players the opportunity to experience the complete game rather than a restricted demo version, making it a substantial opportunity for those interested in sim racing titles. The game remains a premium title, but the week-long window provides a low-barrier entry point for potential buyers to evaluate whether the experience suits their interests before making a purchase decision.

Giants Software’s decision to offer the full game free during this week-long window is a common marketing strategy in the gaming industry, particularly for titles in niche genres like simulation racing where potential players may want to test compatibility with their hardware and assess whether the gameplay aligns with their preferences. The removal of the PlayStation Plus barrier further lowers the entry point for PS5 owners who may not maintain an active subscription.
