The World Map menu structure makes a comeback for Gran Turismo 7, giving players a bird's-eye view of the world of GT. During the course of the Gran Turismo Cup campaign, players will experience around 100 circuit racing events for various vehicle classes - and that's before you include unique mission races, GT license events, time trials, drift trials, car meets and any wacky custom events you can think of.Īfter the launch, Polyphony Digital promises more tracks and cars will be added via future online updates. And finally, there's the Legendary Car Dealer, where expensive but iconic and historic cars like the '65 Aston Martin DB5 or Porsche's 1970 917K race car are held in reverence and sold for a fortune.Īt launch, GT7 will also feature 34 real-world tracks and fantasy circuits from previous GT games with a total of around 97 unique course configurations. Like in real life, this lineup will be updated and adjusted daily with the aim of recreating the thrill of finding a deal on a gem. There's also the Used Car Dealer hub, which features a roster of cars from before 2001. Cars newer than model year 2001 are bought from the Brand Central hub, which is also where you'll find a museum dedicated to exploring the history of each automaker with a photographic timeline. Players will acquire these cars with credits earned from racing, winning and completing various challenges. GT7 will feature over 400 cars at launch from over 50 brands from around the world. That is the ultimate objective of Gran Turismo 7." The cars and the courses "We want to excite people to the allure of cars, even without any prior knowledge, and become aware of just how fun it is to drive, own or tune. "That's why theme is to convey the culture and fascination for cars - the most fantastic gadget of humankind born in the 20th century - to a new generation of people," he said. "Today, you won't find as many people talking about car culture anymore less people are talking about the beauty of cars, or focused on the fun of driving," Yamauchi said during a preview of the new title. GT7 promises the most accurate vehicle racing simulation in the series' history, but it also aims to be a hub to learn about the history and culture of cars and appreciate both their physical and mechanical beauty. Series producer Kazunori Yamauchi describes the title as a "car life simulator" or a sandbox where players can experience every aspect of car culture.Īfter stripping the experience to its bare bones for 2017's competitive online Gran Turismo Sport, GT7 looks to be a return to form, reminding me very much of what I consider the apex of the series, Gran Turismo 4 way back on the PS2. OK, enough racing cliches, because while serious circuit racing is still very much the heart and soul of the Gran Turismo experience, there's so much more to GT7. Polyphony Digital's premier racing simulator for PlayStation consoles is speeding towards its 25th anniversary this year and the next generation is just around the corner, with Gran Turismo 7 set to cross the finish line on March 4.
