Gran-turismo-6----all-dlc--bces01893.part3
It is important to clarify upfront that searching for, downloading, or distributing copyrighted game content—such as DLC files for Gran Turismo 6—without proper authorization is illegal in most jurisdictions. The filename Gran-Turismo-6----All-DLC--BCES01893.part3 strongly suggests a split archive file (part 3 of a multi-part RAR or ZIP set) containing pirated DLC for the PS3 exclusive Gran Turismo 6 (BCES01893 being the European Blu-ray disc identifier).
This article will explain:
- What this file is technically.
- Why such files appear online.
- The legal and security risks.
- How to legitimately obtain Gran Turismo 6 DLC today.
Enter the “All DLC” Archives
On archival forums (Reddit’s r/Roms, Internet Archive, PS3 scene sites), users sometimes upload collections labeled:
Gran-Turismo-6----All-DLC--BCES01893.part1.rar
...part2.rar
...part3.rar Gran-Turismo-6----All-DLC--BCES01893.part3
These are split RAR archives – a common way to distribute large files before cloud storage limits eased. A .part3 file is simply the third segment of the full archive. Alone, it’s useless; combined with parts 1 and 2, it reconstructs a folder containing:
- PKG files (PlayStation 3 package format)
- RAP files (license/activation keys)
- Sometimes an edited PARAM.SFO
Important: Using such an archive typically requires a modified PS3 (CFW/HEN) or an emulator (RPCS3) and is legally gray unless you own the original game and had purchased the DLC before delisting. Distributing DLC PKGs without permission violates copyright.
Understanding the GT6 "BCES01893" Archive
What is BCES01893?
BCES01893 is the product code for the European Blu-ray release of Gran Turismo 6 (Standard Edition). It appears on the game’s disc, case, and in its digital file structure. This identifier matters for: It is important to clarify upfront that searching
- Game updates (patches were numbered, but PARAM.SFO files reference BCES01893)
- Save data (your GT6 progress folder is named
BCES01893-SAVE)
- DLC compatibility – DLC purchased from the EU PlayStation Store is tied to this code
Gran Turismo 6 & the Mystery of BCES01893: A Look at DLC, File Structures, and Preservation
By [Your Name]
In the world of PlayStation 3 gaming, few titles command as much respect—or storage space—as Gran Turismo 6 (GT6). Released in late 2013, Polyphony Digital’s sim racer arrived at the tail end of the PS3’s lifecycle, boasting over 1,200 cars, 37 locations, and a staggering 19GB install size even from the disc. But for enthusiasts and data hoarders, one code keeps reappearing in forum posts and backup discussions: BCES01893.
B. Purchase remaining DLC from PSN Store (web or PS3)
Search for “Gran Turismo 6” on the PS3 store. Some packs remain: What this file is technically
- Ayrton Senna Tribute Bundle ($4.99)
- Racing Car Pack ($3.99)
- Corvette C7 Pack ($2.99)
Log into your PSN account, add funds, download directly to PS3. No jailbreak needed.
2. How to Use the File
You cannot use .part3 by itself. It contains a fraction of the total data. To successfully extract and use the game, you need the complete set:
- Gather all parts: Ensure you have
.part1, .part2, .part3, and so on, all in the same folder.
- Check File Integrity: Ensure the file sizes are consistent (e.g., Part 1 and 2 might be 4GB each, while Part 3 might be smaller).
- Extraction: Use extraction software like WinRAR or 7-Zip. Right-click
part1 and select "Extract Here." The software will automatically detect and pull data from part2 and part3 to reconstruct the full game folder.
5. Security Dangers of “All-DLC” Archives
The promise of “all DLC in one click” is a common trap. Real risks include:
- Fake
.exe files disguised as .part3.rar.
- Password-protected archives with malware inside that requires running an “unlocker.exe”.
- Corrupted parts – Part3 may be a dummy file; you download everything only to find part3 is missing critical headers.
- Keyloggers that steal your PSN email/password if you launch the game through a malicious launcher.
Even if the archive works, running unsigned code on a jailbroken PS3 exposes your home network. Attackers could use your console to pivot to your PC or router.
The DLC Legacy of GT6
Unlike Gran Turismo 5, which had a “Complete Edition” disc, GT6’s DLC was entirely online-based and is now no longer available for purchase following the shutdown of the PS3 PlayStation Store in July 2021 (though redownloading remains possible for past buyers). The DLC included:
- Racing Gear Pack (helmets, suits)
- GT6 Track Pack (Silverstone Grand Prix Circuit, Matterhorn)
- Ayrton Senna Tribute Pack (cars, helmet, challenges)
- Corvette C7 Test Prototype
- Toyota FT-1 (and FT-1 graphite)
- Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Final Edition
- Paint & number sticker packs
Altogether, the DLC added about 25 cars and several tracks. For completionists, not grabbing the DLC before the store closure meant losing access permanently—unless you had previously downloaded it.
