Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

[RacingFan1]

Question that just came to mind... Anyone knows if GT7 has in-voice chat like GT5 and GT6?
I miss it so much.

First impressions from people who got an early copy from amazon:

Duplicates

Hm, 424 cars 👀

Nine cars from South Korea? Seems like Genesis is available at launch.

GT Cafe is the one that is said as the Pokedex of GT7, yet ironically the Car Collection menu there is the one that actually looks similar to Pokedex menu.

No Hyundai 9 cars

No Hyundai 9 cars

There are six Hyundai cars in GT Sport, and six Hyundai cars in the "400 cars" image. They are:

Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8
Hyundai Genesis Gr.4
Hyundai Genesis Gr.3
Hyundai Genesis Gr.B
Hyundai N2025 Gr.X
Hyundai N2025 Gr.1

If there are nine cars from South Korea in GT7, that means there's three more coming. We haven't seen any evidence of additional Hyundai models, but handily Genesis has already shown three cars:

Genesis Gr.3
Genesis Gr.4
Genesis Gr.X

Although we haven't seen them in a while and there's not been any other evidence of them in GT7, it would make nine cars from South Korea without having to invoke any additional Hyundai models that should have appeared in the "400 cars" image but didn't.

In case anyone wanted to know what steering wheels are supported so far:

And it seems like some of GT5 menu music is back as heard in that video.

Porbably the Veloster and/or i30N??, those new Korean cars seems to have a HB body, even though the video is blurry

 

[Famine]

It would raise the question of why they were not in the "400 Cars" image with the other six Hyundai models.

 

[Nowax]

Man, with all these early shipments, I hope someone gets the PS4 version... You know, for us, the unlucky that didn't get a PS5.

 

[261004]

Perhaps they wanted to keep it as a surprise for launch day, possibly with the new Nissan Z.

 

[NAXEHT]

The only hardest trophies are the Sport mode trophies and the fact that you have to drive specific distances online.

Games should really stop having online trophies nowadays.

They’re not hard at all. They’re simple “congratulations for participating” trophies.

Please explain why. Because we should feel sorry for whoever buys GT7 in 2029 and can’t get platinum because servers are offline?

 

[Famine]

There's a rational reason for the Z not appearing: its name starts with Z.

That doesn't apply to the Hyundais... and it's not like we're talking about the Veloster and i30N being so major they had to be hidden, considering all the other new cars that appeared in the image in the right places.

 

[hejustsits]

Terrible news if we aren't able to sell cars for prize money.

Having a used car dealership but no means of selling unwanted cars lessens the immersion/nostalgia somewhat.

 

[GBalao888]

Based on where we are on the car list, this means that Lewis Hamilton's Mercedes F1 cars have likely been removed.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Hmmmm, if the remaining 3 cars are the Genesis cars, I wonder why they didn't appear in the State of Play? I mean, I remember one being called the X, so that could've just not been shown. But one of them is the Gr.4 version of the G70, I can't see a way where the index would edge that out at the bottom like the X.

 

[mcsqueegy]

If that's the gold standard I'm a bit worried...

Maybe they just didn't put all the cars in the image.

Because not everyone plays online or wants to play online so we shouldn't have to be penalised in a single player focussed game for not playing online.

 

[Keef]

Anybody else getting emails from Playstation Store saying to prepare for your pre-order to ship out, but your payment method is not valid?

I check my order status as it directs me to and it literally said "paid". And there's no link to change my payment method anyway. I've gotten two of these emails over the past two weeks now. It appears that the pre-order system and my Playstation Store account aren't fully connected for some reason...the pre-order doesn't show up in my normal Playstation account. Seems like an oversight on their end.

Whatever, I guess we'll find out what happens.

 

[NAXEHT]

No one’s forcing you to get the platinum trophy. It should be difficult and cover most, if not all of the game. If you can’t be bothered with online then once again — don’t go online. Platinums shouldn’t be gifted.

Yeah that's definitely a GT5 song or in this case a GT5 Prologue one.

 

[hejustsits]

Not being able to get the platinum trophy without playing a significant portion of the game hardly seems like a penalty.

What's that Nissan Skyline? It's...

 

[Famine]

Maybe they just didn't put all the cars in the image.

They definitely didn't. They just put all 400 of them with filenames that start with characters from 4C to WRX in it, in alphabetic order.

As far as we can determine, every other car that would have appeared on a 21st row has a filename beginning with X, Y, or Z -- hence the post about the absence of the Fittipaldi EF7, which definitely should have been there - including the XJ13, XJR-9, Z4 GT3, Z8, and (if it is indeed included, which seems likely given the source) Nissan Z. Every other car that we know is in the game and should be there is there.

Of course the three Genesis cars should also have been on the list, but the debut of an entire brand is pretty significant. Given what other new cars the image revealed, two (or three) additional Hyundais wouldn't be particularly worthy of hiding, but three new cars from an entirely new brand to the series would be.

What I can't work out right now is what car #424 is. Regardless of whether the three additional South Korean cars are Hyundai or Genesis, with those and the Z, we're at 423...

 

[Nowax]

This will be the last video I see of GT7 before getting the game. It'd be nice if anyone from here on would mark any leak as a spoiler, I don't think I'm the only one who doesn't want to see any of the game before it launches.

"More than 400 cars! Gotta drive 'em all!"

sees silhouette of a random car "What's that automobile?"

Nope, 421. Checked the footage to realize the W08s are gone.

That's the same year GT8 is being released after the 2028 delay.
