Gran Turismo 6

As you might have noticed when looking over the GT6 car list revealed last week, the game is set to feature one of the most significant and unique vehicles in the world universe.

Uh oh! A bit of drama may be in the works regarding the Nissan DeltaWing in Gran Turismo 6.

As part of yesterday’s GT6 info blowout, Polyphony Digital released a short trailer which highlights the game’s new weather system, time transitions, and astronomical simulation features.

The official Gran Turismo website has just been updated today with an information blowout, highlighting some of the major new features of the game:

During the Tokyo Game Show last week, several media outlets were invited to tour Polyphony Digital’s new Tokyo offices (the company is actually headquartered in Fukuoka, Japan).

Official videos from last week’s Jalopnik Film Festival have now been published, and include an interview with Kazunori Yamauchi and a complete recording of the panel session with Yamauchi, Jim Glickenhaus, Tamir Moscovici, and Ken Block.

Polyphony Digital’s partnership with KW Suspension for Gran Turismo 6 could be more of a collaborative effort than many may have initially realized.
