Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.29 Confirmed for February 21​

A post on the official Gran Turismo game website has confirmed what we pretty much expected: the next Gran Turismo 7 update will land on Tuesday, February 21...

Great news man thanks

4x 4 star tickets with engines await that update

 

[speeeyskells]

At least we got a time frame

I was betting on an extreme long shot, but my Silvia engine ticket may just have to go to waste since it expires the 19th. Oh well! Lol

Ok, that's good! So at this point if the update arrive next Tuesday, silhouettes might be coming towards the half of this week? The sonner they come, the better it is. I expect at least 5-6 cars and some new tracks or layouts.

Silhouettes could still show up Sunday.

Thanks! But let be honest, they didn't add anything in the last 2 months, pretty sure they are working on getting VR in a decent state... I don't believe "the day one" thing....if the same is full of bugs, like after almost a year lobbies are still not working properly.
Anyway hope this make the game better.

It was only 1 month without a update ...

@Famine

which allows you to walk around your cars with 12 different new background.

Missed an s.

Happy to finally see an update article 😁

 

[ICEYOU3]

Local split screen isn't already in the game?

 

[Boxster]

I am curious whether there will be other new content as well (cars, races, menus), but we will have to wait for that.

My guy December 15th was 2 months ago.

Rule #1 with GT7: don’t expect anything except what you know for sure (in this case PSVR2 support)

 

[PuffelPizza]

I'm very afraid that nothing will be added, just V2 support.

On the plus side, hopefully with principal PSVR development done the developers can move back to making new game content.

Guess 1.28 went to the ether bin.

This is the first time an update has been hyped more than a day in advance on the Gran Turismo website, so I'm not reading anything into the lack of mention of any non-VR content, or the lack of a Kaz silhouette "update coming next week" tweet (or even just an "update coming next week" with no silhouette tweet), just yet. See me this time next week if Kaz still hasn't posted a silhouette tweet, or if Kaz posts an "update coming" without any silhouettes.

Unfortunately they take that "new game" too literally and shift to GT8

 

[RobertHammer]

Yes this wednesday it will be 2 months but if VR2 update wasn't later this month , update would have been this week instead of 21 Feb

so it is still 1 month without actual game update

 

[StarRacer]

So what I feared is becoming reality........all of us who won't or can't buy the VR2 are basically an afterthought now in GT7.....

 

[Rythec]

Hi everyone, I am very interested in the psvr2 but I hesitate to take it, I have a T300rs steering wheel and I hesitate between taking the psvr2 and a new fanatec steering wheel. What would you advise me

You can take revenge by punting VR2 players in Sport races.

If your only interest in the VR is for GT (and other racing games), honestly I'd get the wheel first. It will likely get much more use and make more difference to your experience, plus there's no issues with potential motion sickness limiting your playtime.

What are you on about?

What you're saying basically boils down to: game developers will basically switch to VR2 exclusively. Doesn't sound like reality to me, but like a lot of bollocks.

The last update was December 15th. It was the December update. This update on February 21st will be the February update.
There was not a January update, hence 1 month without an update. It is all in how you look at it.

Regardless, we will get one next week.....I can't wait!

It is, PSVR2 just doesn’t support it

 

[Marckyboy]

Surely it makes no difference? The game is playable in both normal and vr, it was designed that way. Only exclusive Vr content will be the showroom etc as can't do those without it. The nature of Vr though means there will be games that are Vr only, just like with vr1.

Quoted the wrong post, it's a reply to the original comment!

easily vr2. The T300 is a great wheel still. VR2 will make your GT7 much better.
