Gran Turismo 7 “April” Update Content Predictions…

[barak181]

I am hoping for Silverstone, Monaco and Pikes Peak.

All three I would very much like to see. My understanding is that PD holds the rights to Pike's Peak, so I don't know what the hold up is with that.

Would the LFA be this game's most requested car to be added, similar to the Premium Supra RZ back in GT Sport?

Well, wishful thinking aside, in pragmatic terms what might happen in the next update is:

- Apricot Hill: track teased numerous times in pre-release trailers. That is, if they are going to add a new location.

Considering the GT website talks about "new layouts" for the upcoming April update, there should probably come Suzuka West, Nurb Gp No-Chicane and No-Arena, or even a new Dragon Trail layout (perhaps the union of Gardens and Seaside).

- Toyota GR GT3 Concept '22 (Gr. 3) and Toyota GR010 Hybrid (Gr. 1): Toyota's relationship with PD is more than intimate.

- Toyota GT-One, Porsche 911 GT1 '98 and Nissan R390 GT1: the three cars will add to the two opponents that are already in the game (CLK-LM and McLaren F1 GTR Longtail). These cars are legends of the GT franchise. And, maybe, Panoz Esperante GTR-1.

It baffles me that they took the LFA out in Sport and 7. It's one of the iconic Japanese cars.

I don't think we will be getting any Update in April, we just got it last week.
The next update will come then in (early)May i guess...

No, I think you're wrong. There will probably be nothing this week, but next week or the week after that it's almost certain that there will be a major update. Imemrhin was promised a few more for this month, which have not yet been implemented.

My understanding is that PD holds the rights to Pike's Peak, so I don't know what the hold up is with that.

I doubt it will happen, they've had the exclusive rights for a long time but done nothing with them besides promoting the real hillclimb each year. It's a shame since it blocks others from licensing the track.

PD themself stated they will add some cars and track layouts before the end of the month

 

[Matt atkins]

No, that's not how things work.

You made the claim. Prove it.

I can’t sorry I apolize

For reference, GT Sport's first content update only started with three cars. Then as months went by, the succeeding updates featured more and more cars in one update.

For reference:

Spoiler

Pattern based on GT Sport's update history:

November 2017 - 3 cars
December 2017 - 15 cars
January 2018 - 10 cars
February 2018 - 12 cars
March 2018 - 13 cars
April 2018 - 3 cars
May 2018 - 9 cars
July 2018 - 9 cars (originally eight, nine if the color variation Mercedes F1 car was included, both F1 cars aren't in GT7 anymore)
August 2018 - 8 cars
September 2018 - 9 cars
November 2018 - 8 cars
December 2018 - 7 cars
January 2019 - 8 cars
March 2019 - 10 cars (five cars in two separate updates)
April 2019 - 5 cars
June 2019 - 5 cars
July 2019 - 5 cars
August 2019 - 5 cars
September 2019 - 4 cars
October 2019 - 4 cars
November 2019 - 6 cars (including the Toyota GR Supra Race Car '19 from the GT Sport GR Supra survey)
December 2019 - 8 cars (including the Mercedes-AMG VGT LH Edition, which isn't in GT7 anymore)
February 2020 - 3 cars
April 2020 - 1 car
May 2020 - 1 car
November 2020 - 1 car
July 2021 - 1 car

That's two years and three months worth of content updates that GT Sport had, resulting in 170 cars added throughout its lifetime. Perhaps GT7 could have a longer lifespan than GT Sport and much larger volume of updates?

Update 2 of GT Sport added 12 cars and 1 new Circuit

 

[RPR6143 RPG]

I bet the Toyota GR010 Hybrid is going to be in the May 2022 update since it wasn't in the silhouette of the April one.

For all the negative opinions of PD their support post launch is simply unmatched, expecially considering basically all of it is free DLC too.

Subaru BRZ GT300 '21

Could Be either the (EA11R) 1991 or the (EA21R) 1995

OR

Expecting like one track layout and those new cars are disappointing already. Killing the tomahawk grind will also kill my play time.

They need to add tons of events like GT Sport or bump up custom race payouts massively. Like there was already nothing to do besides grind for money with the tomahawk to buy any car I want.
