Gran Turismo 7 officially revealed for the PlayStation 5

Polyphony Digital has dropped the first official trailer for Gran Turismo 7 following the reveal of the PlayStation 5 just a few hours ago. The next entry in the famous racing simulator series comes almost seven years since the last numbered Gran Turismo game, and looks to be more fully fledged than the current Gran Turismo Sport used for the MSF CyberTurismo esports championship.

The trailer reveals plenty of in-game footage, where we get to see production and race cars from various eras zooming around road courses and race tracks. The game takes full advantage of the PS5’s new hardware, so the visuals (with ray tracing) and audio are a joy to take in, as you’d expect.

Among the cars we managed to spot in the trailer, some of which are not in GT Sport (marked by an asterisk), include the:

Aston Martin DB11
Aston Martin DBR9*
BAC Mono*
Chevrolet C2 Corvette
Chevrolet C3 Corvette
Chevrolet C7 R
Dodge Viper GTS
Dodge Viper GT3
Ford GT40
Ford GT
Honda NSX
Honda NSX GT3
Jaguar E-Type
Lamborghini Murcielago*
Lamborghini Diablo
Mazda RX-Vision GT3
Porsche 917K*
Porsche Carrera GT*
Porsche 996 GT1*
Subaru WRX GT3
Toyota Supra GT3

While the game’s menu aesthetics and in-game displays appear similar to those found in GT Sport, GT7 brings with it a full-on campaign mode, which includes “old favourites” like the used car lot and tuning parts shop. Other icons seen on the campaign home page include the driving school, GT World, GT Cafe, GT Auto and Scapes, among others. Oh yeah, Trial Mountain is back too!

Unfortunately, the only missing piece of information is a release date. However, we do know the PS5 is set to go on sale this holiday season between October and December, and GT7 could be launched alongside the new console. Best to start saving up now.
