I wonder how long it would take me to create 500.000 PSN accounts and launch the game once with each of them so that Kaz can say GT Sport has reached 10 million players .
Am I part of it?
but is it ? I watched fia finals live and around 4k people were watching it, many streamers would make much better results playing random gameThey created GT Tv channel and every year they organize the GT world championship, the most followed and loved event in the videogames world.
And they would have to remove ~330,000 demo only accounts from the count.As of now there are exactly 13.412.701 GT Sport accounts, so they aren't just counting accounts.

Aww dangNo, I am sorry to say you are the one racer on Earth that was not included. Better luck next time.
The articleGT Sport hinged more on online esports, and how that seemed to initially put some fans off. “As a result, we got 9.5 million users, but it didn’t sell explosively from the beginning, and it seemed that the understanding gradually progressed and the support increased over the three years”.
For some people and me bought the game after the inclusion of the Offline mode and some updates.

Likely, but it was also just Christmas. They probably sold a record numbers of GTS, PS4, and PS+ this year. Back in June 2019 they announced 8 million copies sold. Pre-Covid.I wonder if PD realizes that the main reason they are seeing new accounts still is because the penalty system is so bad that nearly every player has at least one Alt account now?
I wonder if PD realizes that [...] nearly every player has at least one Alt account now?
I wouldn’t be surprised to see that there was only 5/6 million PS4’s running those 9.5 million accounts
