Gran Turismo 5 Prologue Free Downloadable Demo will be available for a limited time to coincide with the holding of the 40th Tokyo Motor Show 2007.
We hope you enjoy all of the features, including unveiling events where the details of the cars in the game are synchronized with the new cars being presented at the actual exhibition, the distribution of an original program covering the exhibition, and distributed text news related to motor sports and automobile manufacturers.
[How the demo is provided]
This free demo is available as a download.
Because this game can only be downloaded from the PLAYSTATION®Store online service, which is specifically for the PLAYSTATION®3, a PLAYSTATION®3 that is connected to the network is required.

From October 20th, 2007 (Saturday) to November 11th, 2007 (Sunday)
Note: It may become difficult to access the PLAYSTATION®Store or the download may take a long time due to high traffic levels when the download first becomes available. In this case, although we apologize for the inconvenience, we ask that you try again at another time.
