    Edit after patch 1.13. I gave this a 1 out of 10 I hoped to change that after the latest patch. But adding 3 cars and a new layout for a track just don’t even come close to what I expected. I pre ordered thinking there was a career progression and the cafe was just some extra content. Until they add a career which I can’t see how they could now. It’s a big fat zero out of ten for me and a major do not buy.

    This is Gran Turismo. The gameplay, control, depth, roster, most of the things we expect from the GT series. The game would have a much higher score, had it not been for some horrendous decisions made by Polyphony.

    I will start with the biggest issue, and the most common complaint. This game is designed with microtransactions in mind. They did not add these microtransactions as an after thought, or as a way to make it easier to obtain other vehicles, they designed the entire economy around them. The reward payout is a bit lack luster. The fact that they don't let you buy the cars directly, but only sell credits (and the cost is insane if you want the higher priced cars) really shows their true intention. But the biggest drawback, is selling your unused cars. This was one of they most common ways to earn credits in most other GT games. However, you cannot earn credits by selling in this iteration. Why did they remove this? Simple, to push users towards buying those credit packs.
    Side note: Polyphony even took the servers offline and cut the rewards drastically shortly after launch. They got flamed hard for that. They have since given most players 1m credits, but that doesn't go far when getting higher end cars.

    Soundtrack. I have always enjoyed the soundtracks from previous iterations of GT. GT7 however, didn't even have the soundtrack as an after-thought. Yes, we can play apps like Spotify in the background, however I would have enjoyed it much more if they were to have at least put some good songs to listen to in the game. Using a music app in the background really doesn't feel the same to me.

    The visuals are great, for the most part. Again, it seems like Polyphony decided to half-ass some of the special effects. Mainly, the rain. Playing in 3rd person perspective, i wouldn't really be able to tell it was raining had it not been for the wet tracks and sound effects. It doesn't look like it is raining at all. The raindrop effects on the windshield were also half-assed. They do realistically move as you drive, and the wiper effects are dismal. Driving through puddles, the water splashes are absolutely pathetic. I have seen better splash effects on the PS2. Polyphony really did not put any effort into the water effects visually.

    How to fix this and make this the absolute driving simulator we all know it should be?
    1. Fix the economy. Let us sell these vehicles to earn more credits. The microtransactions should not feel forced. I personally would have no problem buying them here and there, to show support, however you built the in-game economy around these transactions.

    2.Work on the weather effects. Polyphony has never really been one to cut any corners, however you have cut several corners here, and games from previous generations really put GT7, even on PS5, to shame in the rain department.

    3.Some licensed music would be great. This is the least critical area in my eyes (and ears), however is something that should be given some attention.

    GT7 was marketed as "The return to our roots" release. The true driving simulator. Well, part of driving is buying the cars, customizing cars, driving cars, and selling cars. You have taken that last part of a driving simulator away from is in order to pursue greedy intentions (microtransactions). These three areas I think would really make Gran Turismo 7 the king once again. At least fixing the economy and rain effects.

    Roulette Tickets are a joke, pay out is still low, and now it’s gold or Bronze I can remember every other GT game grading on a scale 8/10 golds and the other 2 being silver would still give you the gold prize. You know I bought my PS5 strictly for this game but now that this game is Trash I’m selling my PS5 and I’m going PC and switching to the plethora of different racing games there.

Then the updates came, and driving was a bit better until the 1.13 patch came, which ruined it from any aspect of driving. I played many simulators and no one is as bad as this one. It is so frustrating to know that they could make this game work well, but they simply didn't. It is no use for a game like this to look so beautiful if driving is so awful. I have never met a game in which a RWD car would act like a FWD (GR3 cars after update 1.13).
    Also, one bad thing is that PD made this game work really good for controller users, but they didn't adapt driving for wheel users.
    I played this game from the release and I regret spending so much money on a game that was released way too soon when it had so many problems and many of them are still present today.
    I really hope they will fix it, but I doubt it. I say this because PD seems to want to sell more than giving a good game, which might be hard to play, but please the real enthusiasts of real driving, not this arcade nonsense. It is far away from how good and stable was GT Sport. It is a shame that this game is so great in all aspects other than driving.

An ok-ish career mode. There's no fomo because they cycle the same events so you can earn your car after grinding. In gt you can't even earn 1 car in the time it takes to earn one in Asphalt Legends

    There's not enough events and the way the events is organized is like all over the places. Back then the events where organized in specific type of races. Like you go an event for FF challenge and see the races and tracks. Now you go to tracks and see events, which is badly designed. I thought the cafe was for mini challenges like coffee break in GT4 and not for the main gameplay. -Car prizes is rather meaningless. Back then you get excited to see what car you have unlocked cause some of them were not purchasable or hidden. Now car prizes is reduced and rewards are money instead of getting car prize. This design of this game, unfortunately, is collecting money and go buy a car. Which make you feel this game has no soul or fun like how it was. Back then, like the first 4 gran turismo games, the cars where customized by PD and made them available as prize cars. I wish they can make an event with initial D's car as a prize car instead of throwing it in dealership and make it available for purchase. -Even though musics are awesome, but they are reused. I wish they add more new cool musics and in race musics like how they used to do.
    -This game is seriously need to be fixed to be great again. I think no one would see this review and care

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you have played Gran Turismo sport or any game before it, you can tell that a lot of effort was put into focusing on the car culture and history of the game. Besides this, it’s not worth the $90 for the game. The penalty and overall racing system of the game is the same as sport. Unless you want a one minute penalty for passing a stopped car, don’t buy. The economy of the game is getting better but still is subpar. Massive changes need to be made for gt7 to be the game that was promised years ago. Expand

For those who paid 80€ for this, this is unacceptable. In the future, when the game is discontinued and this issue is not resolved, you are basically left with nothing. The time and money you invested into playing this game will be competely wasted.

    Even worse thing is that the game itself is not bad, in fact it's one of the best racers I've ever played. It's a real shame that developers are willing to kill their game, which they put countless of hours into making, just for some extra money when they force people to buy their next new game. These practices are killing gaming industry as a whole, that's why I gave this game such a low rating.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am a fan of the series since Playstation 2, have been playing and enjoying the series for over 15 years.

    On the Playstation 5, I pre-ordered the game in 2021 and have been waiting for the release with great anticipation.

    On the release date, I was able to drive a bit and play the game.

    But what was my surprise that they returned the money for the pre-order and took the game away? I'm from Kazakhstan and I don't understand why Sony is so sloppy about the fans of the series.

    Judging by the videos and reviews, the game does not give anything new. I will never buy games in the series of Polyphony digital again.

    And then there is the issue of the microtransactions. How come, now that you can buy in with real money (if you want and can afford it), the game gives you a lot less credits when you win a race or a championship.

    Have they not already earned enough. I am very disappointed and I want my money back.

    It’s Cyberpunk 2077 all over again! There are other companies that somehow are able to deliver a finished game like Horizon Forbidden West.

After six months of mind numbing grinding and carefully calculating and testing setups and tunes for every race, they've gone and undone the entire tuning process, undoing hundreds of hours of trial and error and making 70% of GT7 cars useless as there is no race that they are even eligible to be entered into now. The costs of some of the cars have quadrupled to twenty million credits, taking hundreds of hours just afford to buy it. What a mess.

    Warn you, in real world if you ride a car and don’t like it you can sell it and get other things you like. Not in GT7, you need to sit there and do hundreds races again to buy another car… Microtransaction is a joke. The cars are so expensive you better save the money and get another console, racing in another platform. That’s a better investment of time and money and I think I couldn’t even sell my GT7 disc, no one wants it nowadays…

    Single player has absolutely terrible AI. Still can’t sell duplicate cars. Sports mode is frustrating as the penalties are still terrible. Split screen still doesn’t work. These guys just don’t care anymore. Never buying a Polyphony game again after being a huge fan from day 1. Gran Tursimso has always been the reason I bought the newer console but I’m done now.

    The characters are like a retro polygon models its so nasty and the graphics are done poorly, no raindrops from the sky, only dark clouds and mist on the ground. The cars don't actually turn but its the camera that turns along the racetrack. The car always goes straight. Poor physics in gt7

    Att night, Gran Turismo 7 was released on PS4 and PS5 consoles, but applications from Russia cannot buy a driving simulator. Even for those who pre-ordered in advance, the game does not download.
    The Gran Turismo 7 page on the PS Store is currently unavailable either from the browser or the app itself on the console.

    Game is a complete disappointment and to those in Russia complaining about it all I can say is be glad you got a refund, you guys aren't missing anything.

    To start off. The always online or GAAS model for a 70$ is crap. Company decides to kill the servers and there went your game. Next would be the music. All the others had Judas priest etc and other songs and this one is just boring

All the others had Judas priest etc and other songs and this one is just boring and lame as hell instrumental music that is quickly forgotten. You cant sell cars as they want you to pay with their micro transactions. So its pretty much pokemon for cars at this point. I have no interest in "collecting them all" and filling up my car-e-dex . The game plays like a mobile game and has the same microtransactions tactics you would see in a mobile game.

    The game loops the professor I mean the guy in the cafe is find 3 cars by doing 3 rolling start 2 lap races (and they are just about all rolling start) and 1 multi day race tournament. back to the cafe for your next mission from the professor for the next 3 pokem...i mean cars. I keep forgetting what game reviewing here. thats the core of the game ...very dry and boring. Next would be the graphics are meh not exactly PS5 quality. I Didn't bother looking at multiplayer options as i lost interest in the game. The upgrade system is very lackluster and boring. The basic GUI is meh. This will be the last GT game I ever buy. I will check out microsofts Forza or need for speed. They got the last dollar they will ever see from me on this crap of a game.

    Love the game, just not the fact it works out about £160 in microtransactions to buy a the most expensive car, Sony didn't even include the microtransactions in the version for the media to review and added it afterwards. It will literally take forever to build up your garage unless you pay hundreds of pounds to buy credits. Yet again Sony and polyphony dig

    Nothing useful to do after the cafe menu training camp, buying very nice cars is either grinder material or half the cost of the game in micro transactions. Non upgraded cars feel like you're driving a boat and slide at 40 km/h no real car does this. Given up playing as nothing to do now

    Des weiteren ist auch hier wieder die Downloadmenge grauenhaft. Ich frage mich immer wozu ich eine Blu-ray habe ? Ist da überhaupt etwas drauf ?
    Danach kommt der Onlinezwang ! Offline spielen geht hier gar nicht !
    Zu Begin kann man quasi nichts im Spiel machen, da einfach ALLES gesperrt ist.
    Ich selbst hatte einen Vorbestellerbonus der mir bisher so gut wie nichts gebracht hat. Denn man kann zu Begin des Spiels nicht mal auf die Neuwagen zugreifen. Was soll dieser Blödsinn in einem Spiel in dem es auch einen Echtgeldshop gibt und man ingame Währung kaufen kann ?!
    Entzieht sich, aus meiner Sicht, jeglicher Sinnhaftigkeit.
    Zudem finde ich es extrem lästig nicht im Vorfeld zu sehen welche Strecken ich frei spielen kann und welche Fahrzeuge und Lizenzen ich für was brauche ?!
    Die Weltkarte ist NUR mit roten Punkten versehen und man kann auf NICHTS zugreifen, geschweige denn irgendetwas nachlesen. Spielmotivation erzeugt das nicht gerade. Das war in den vorherigen Teilen oft besser gelöst.
    Auch das ständige BlaBla im Cafe fühlt sich meist sehr überflüssig und hakelig an. Für mich stört es den Spielfluss.
    Zudem. So Dinge wie diesen GT Service - in dem man Fahrzeuge waschen und pflegen kann, hätten auch ein par Animationen gut getan. Nette Idee eigentlich, aber eher mangelhaft umgesetzt.

    Und verflucht nochmal !
    Warum kann ich mir keine separaten Musiktraks für jeweilige Strecken und Menüs aussuchen ?!
    Das ging schon bei vielen der vorherigen Teilen und ist extrem störend !
    Nicht jeden Titel finde ich gut und möchte ihn ständig hören müssen... -,-

    Als Gesamtwertung bekommt das Spiel von mir daher gerade mal ein "ausreichend"
    Den Kauf bei dem hohen Preis, kann ich nicht empfehlen.

    Mal gebraucht für 20 Euro wäre tatsächlich wohl die bessere Wahl gewesen.

This being said, 9 months too late and GT7 missed all the GOTY awards. It still has the worst soundtrack in the series (very budget), it still has RETARDED AI from year 1999 that will destroy your progress in difficult races by making you go off track and loose 10+ seconds. It still has that same, stupid 'coffee' career progress, it still has that MP like races in career (ex. there's no grouping by FF, FR, MR etc. as dominant but rather VERY restrictive manufacturer and PP races). 4/10 and RIP Gran Turismo

    I've deleted my old review, but here's a warning:
    Game career ends abruptly; it's short, lacks career maker races, endurance races and some cups in general. After that it'll force you to grind or use real money to level up (doing so by car collecting) which is even harder considering you can't sell them!

    Take it as a warning.

The gameplay is mediocre at best, races are forgettable, the AI is laughable. I played a handful of the single player before realising that this game isn't so much about being a driving simulator as much as a combo simulator requiring you to press a variety of controls at the exact right time to achieve the desired effect, not fun. Take that and throw in the odd near-impossible gold time to beat for "challenge" & microtransactions for when the "challenge" becomes too much and you already have the boring, generic and repetitive idea of what this game is trying to be. Customisation is minimal compared to other games and some more advanced features like being able to talk into your mic to ask for updates etc. doesn't exist either. It feels like you slap on the most expensive parts and your good to keep winning easily. Graphics are awfully misleading to the point they feel like a scam, any sort of realism you see in a cutscene, photo etc. is literally just a staged concept of your car driving over a photo of a real location. In an actual race the graphics are basic, washed out and looking more like something out of Fortnite than realistic. The story is a complete cash grab, built for what looks like a child audience. Most of the people involved in the story don't have voice lines, the way the game talks to you feels almost patronising, after a few hours I could take no more and did the next best thing possible, deleted it. I'm giving this a 2, that's for the fact it turns on and you can play it. Is it worth the price? No. Would I recommend it? No. Expand

One or two we're offered and for the last month it's this stupid BOP races, im done with this absolute crap honestly, I will never buy another GT game ever, u are a bunch of greedy liars, u lie about what the game is and sell it as something its not, u have lost me and several of my friends due to your greed and lies, now u can reap what u sow.

    Update: The game gets an extra point for addressing concerns relating to the broken economy. The biggest issue is still the ALWAYS ONLINE REQUIREMENT FOR SINGLE PLAYER. If they remove this then the game is a 9 out of 10. If they get rid of the stupid roulette spins then I would change to a 10 out of 10.

    I wanted to wait for Polyphony/Sony's response before I wrote this review. I am so bitterly disappointed and this is the first review I've ever written so that should speak volumes in itself.
    The single player portion of this game requiring an online connection is simply wrong and is unacceptable. I cannot believe that it is literally impossible to start your game over and/or create a new save file. The official recommendation from Sony is to create a whole new Playstation ID every time I just want to start fresh. The save file is forever tied to the account, backed up to the cloud and made impossible to ever remove. Am I purchasing this game or just renting it? The update recently released made no mention whatsoever about changing the online requirements so you've officially lost a loyal fan of this series.
    You and your live service BS can get f%^&^d and I am returning the game today. Btw, get rid of those awful random roulette spins, this is not a mobile game however much you want to make it feel like one.

    I would really struggle to recommend anyone to buy this at the moment, and especially at £70. Wait for a sale.

It is a great building block and keeps me hopeful for GT8 to make improvements but there is a lot left desired here. Once they make changes as promised it will be better but in its current state it is a basic racing game not worth full price in my opinion.

    Pros:
    The GT World Map is nice and well setup
    Love the return of GT Auto, Used Car Dealership, and Tuning Shop
    Good Mix of Cars
    Cafe is a nice feature
    So much car history and information (my favorite feature of this game)

    Cons:
    Always online even in single player, which is a bummer
    Races are way too easy, Playing on hardest difficulty I have yet to find a challenging event other than License and Missions.
    Have to down grade cars constantly in order to create minimal challenge
    No Damage. Hit a wall at 200mph no problem spin around once and good to go

    The physics and customization are 10/10 though. This is where the game shines, the tracks & cars are pretty much perfectly modeled and the driving itself is quite punishing (in a good way). The game also does a great job on teaching you how to be a better driver.

    Overall a massive letdown for a game that was advertised as being the ultimate gran turismo experience. Feels more like a glorified $30 game.

    This is really awful after they raise the price of car in the latest patch...The classic two steps forward one step back maneuver, followed by a sneaky half step forward now that the backlash has died down in an attempt to see how much they can push and get away with.

    The micro-transaction system and forced networking have seriously affected the game experience. A car even costs tens of dollars to buy, so what's the point of paying for the game?

    They would have earned alot more from micro-transaction if they kept the cars a little cheaper and expand the GT driving experience. Sensible grinding for exp or in our case, cp, is totally acceptable but they have completely ruined the balance of the game.

    Short sighted and frankly greedy mindset. They are rotten to the core. There are plenty of other games which are worth playing, if you are just in for a short term driving thrill, no problem. If you are into something serious and want to try as much as driving experience as possible, this is NOT the game that you will enjoy in that sense. The game is not and will not be well maintained. They only care about quick money and some public stunt with youtubers racing events.

    I have decided I will just delete this game and consider the money spent to purchase the game a complete loss. I will never purchase another GT game that has a live service component to it. The current state of GT7 with the live service features and how the devs have increased the prices of all vehicles so they are hardly able to purchase and decreased the rewards for races is outrageous.I have decided I will just delete this game and consider the money spent to purchase the game a complete loss.

    This is the first game I have hated so much that I turned against and took it for trade in within hours. The online switching is a frustrating mess. It loses your progress. The 10 minute intro is unskippable! After watching it for the second time only to find the game lost your damn progress is absolute trash.

    Music rally is like purgatory that you get suck in before arriving to more menu

    Music rally is like purgatory that you get suck in before arriving to more menu hell. I will say that the racing seems nice but the rest of the stuff kills it. I feel like they had to go out of their way to make this game such a disaster. I will probably never come back to this series if they are gonna be so **** now. I can just go play the old ones that were awesome.

    Sony needs to get this in check or they are going to stain their brand because this one of the big PS IPs. To mess it up so bad is not a good sign.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am a player of the first hour and have spent many many hours in the GT world. Of course, the graphics have improved, the cars feel more realistic, but this is mainly due to Fanatec. But that's already the end of the positive part for me. The opponents just shoot you in the rear! In one race, I was lying in 1st place on the last lap in the rain and was simply rammed from behind and I lost the race. That can happen, but if it happens regularly, you have to say. What the hell have you developed for an AI? It can't be that the AI has the task to shoot me out all the time!!! Also the pit stop times are completely surreal. I need three times as long as the AI. What is that?! I don't even want to start with the far too few menu books and the associated far too short career section. Just as little as the online compulsion. The worst thing for me, besides the stupid AI, is the support. There is only the possibility to contact the general Sony support and they forward it. What kind of support is that if you can't even reach Polyphony itself and criticize directly....

    All in all this is for me not only the worst gaming experience in the GT world but also the worst game I have ever played. I find reassuring only that I do not seem to be alone when I read the reviews so.

    Game is a joke. They literally ruined a great game. There's races in the game that require you to use certain cars. Problem is you can only purchase these cars through "legend cars" and the issue is there's over 100 cars in legend cars but they only show about 10 cars at a time. And take about 7 days to rotate. I've been waiting over 2 and a half months for these 4 cars I'm looking for soGame is a joke. They literally ruined a great game. There's races in the game that require you to use certain cars.

A ton of hidden on track info that the user doesn’t get to know. Tuning is soulless. Any slight adjustments to the car can drastically change the cars physics and drivability. Yet PD has decided to disable the features that lets you know what these adjustments do. Adding bandaid after bandaid to the PP system has left the tuning aspect of the game basically pointless.definitely a product of lazy fixes. Online only has no benefits. Nothing to gain multiplayer lobby’s still struggle to stay stable and the longer a lobby is up the worse it gets. No lobby handoffs and if a host leaves the whole lobby shuts down. Balance of Performance (BOP) is anything butgr1 & gr4 are horrid. We never get the bragged on dynamic weather in daily races. So if you wanted to race with friends or a big tuning player or just want a equal playing field to measure yourself against other drivers this IS NOT the game for you. That’s not even counting the multiple cars that are around $190 if you don’t want to grind for weeks & weeks on the same 3 races. There are soo many more problems I could get into with the lack of road car rally races, horrible single player campaign, and biases that are way to obvious. I had about 15 more problems I wanted to touch on but this should underline the biggest issues of the game. $20 or less grab it. I wouldn’t pay a cent more for this game. Expand

    Gran Turismo 7 has a lot of good and plenty of great. The use of DualSense and the particularly well-tuned loading is exemplary, and there's a huge amount of work behind the game, with a lot of detail that's almost hard to believe at times. [Issue#318]

    Gran Turismo 7 brings to the tracks every single thing fans always wanted: the GT Mode everyone loves, plenty of customization options, car loads, classic scenarios and one of the best DualSense and 3D Audio experiences the PS5 has to offer. This is the best Gran Turismo experience we have ever seen in a long time.

    Gran Turismo 7 is a love letter to motorsport history and an impeccable technical showcase. The franchise's traditional formula gets good improvements, but it's still extremely true to its roots. One of the best racing series ever shines spectacularly on the PS5.
