Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

[CTznOfTime]

Sorry but just one more photo that I thought was super interesting is the EVO I next to the EVO II

I actually like the EVO 1 look , I wish Kaz also gave us that...

I thought we were getting the Evo I when Kaz posted the silhouettes. We could have them got the Evo II parts instead. Anyway, it’d be nice to have the Evo I added like the E30s have the two versions.

 

[Abyss1]

Due to having problems finding the Rig I want I haven't loaded/played GT7 since August of last year. I also need to get a PS5 Pro, but the RTX 5090 is coming out later this month so I'll probably be getting that...whenever I decide to start GT7 again Im pretty sure I will have a pretty nice and hefty update

And if you want, you can recreate the Nurburgring Edition (Front - Type A, Rear Wing - Type A and BBS RG-Fs should do the trick)

Love mine 😁 (also, if you just add the Sports Computer you get the exact 563hp of the Nurb)

Propably try with clear browser cache.

Tried both of these, nothing. Tried different browsers, same problem. Strange.

If you're connected to a VPN, disconnect it. The GT7 site doesn't allow VPNs ever since the AWS outage some years ago.

Gran Turismo remained strong in Europe but took a nosedive in the US after GT5. So it's good to see GT7 doing the numbers in that market. Some estimations I've seen suggest over 3.4 Million in the US alone, so probably over 10 Million worldwide.

Jan 2025 update is getting a tight window..

Would be surprising if there was no update this month, since in december they announced the hyundai ionic 5 as coming with the january update. Maybe, at worst, it comes one week later in feb, but we will likely have the update.

They also mentioned a January update a week ago.

I had a feeling that might have been it, good call.

 

[Volksauto]

I recall Kaz posting on Twitter, "Update coming tomorrow.." for one of the GT Sport updates on the second last day of the month. I wouldn't worry too much wondering if the update will arrive on time.

Firstly, struggling to believe GT7 is fifth in units - between GT1 at 10.85m and GT2 at 9.37m, and still behind GT Sport - at almost three years in.

Secondly, what's the deal with making new accounts and spiking the old ones?

I think we need to see the European and Asian figures. Anecdotally (and from the monthly charts on the PS Blog) it seems GT really dropped off in the US until December's price cut & demo.

US Sales

Gran Turismo 3 - 7,140,000 (Heavily bundled, RRP $40, then $19.99 Greatest Hits)
Gran Turismo - 3,990,000
Gran Turismo 2 - 3,960,000
Gran Turismo 4 - 3,470,000
Gran Turismo 7 - ? (RRP $70)
Gran Turismo 5 - 3,440,000
Gran Turismo 5 Prologue - 1,340,000
Gran Turismo 6 - 1,240,000
Gran Turismo PSP - 1,050,000

If those numbers are anything like it won't be long until GT7 moves in behind GT3 for units sold. The respective RRP's are why it's already #1 for revenue.

GT Sport is unknown but didn't perform well on US Circana/NPD charts (revenue based). It was heavily discounted and bundled in Europe some 3-6 months after release.

I think Sport Mode is broken

What does "ranks 1st in dollars" mean?

What does "ranks 1st in dollars" mean?

It’s made the most money of all the games released.

 

[Nakano219]

It's worth noting that a lot of that money comes from games being $70 now, and Sony having gone the Nintendo route and not permanently discounting games anymore (whereas Sport for example will have a lot of units sold but a really low average sale price). So it's not quite as impressive as "most money made of any Gran Turismo" sounds.

Still, as mentioned above the game outsold FFVII Rebirth on the PS Store in the EU last year. We can argue about how well the game is doing, but it having done well seems fairly undisputable at this point.

Well, that makes sense. How this guy expressed it doesn't make sense at all.

 

[Fernandoz]

Worst fomo game ever, on par with concord, but the IP keeping it alive

 

[RACECAR]

I see we're back with the Nuclear takes again..

Don’t tell them that you can’t get past Forza Reward cars unless you have a Time Machine…

 

[Meythia]

fomo

This is something that only strikes individuals, while others are immune to this kind of fear.
It is not a terror that applies to every gamer, for example I couldnt care any less to have a few cars of which I know I will never use them for the simple fact I think they are ugly.

 

[RACECAR]

My favorite part is "Worst FOMO Game Ever", which implies that there is a best FOMO game ever.

What are people afraid of missing out on?

 

[PSN offapple]

The admins are gonna get tired of having to delete sections of conversation at this rate.

What are people afraid of missing out on?

I had a stint playing Assetto Corsa last year, and missed out on getting the dark grey 400R. Now I daren’t even leave the house.

 

[mynameis66]

You beat me to it,i cant think of anything fomo in GT7.The only thing to really miss out on is credits.Theres no exclusive cars or anything like that.

 

[GBalao888]

What are people afraid of missing out on?

To some extent, the rotation of the Used and Legend car dealers.

 

[RobertHammer]

That guy is just baiting people and it seems hes out of any good arguments when he has to mention concord lmao

meanwhile GT7 series’ Highest-Grossing Title
