    The game doesn’t work, down for maintenance for over 24hrs. Not worth buying this game as you can’t play it when you want to.

    It’s the real fomo simulator. I’d like to use an analogy to get across what the experience of owning this game is like. Imagine you bought a coffee machine, it says it froths milk and brews coffee. But guess what? You have to unlock the frother by brewing 5000 coffees!

    How fun would that be? Of course if you dont want to do that you can just pay us another $200 and you can use it right

    How fun would that be? Of course if you dont want to do that you can just pay us another $200 and you can use it right away! That’s shady af? But we don’t MAKE you pay us, you could happily use your new product to brew 5000 coffees and then unlock it! Oh and by the way, whilst you’re enjoying that ‘grind’ of coffee, make sure you’re always online. Actually, try and make sure we are online too because whilst there is no benefit to you as our end user to always being online, we have decided that you must always be connected to our servers to use your product. And if we nuke the product that you bought by releasing a poor update, you won’t be able to use it at all. But we appreciate your patience whilst we sort it out. By which I mean it is now 10000 coffees that you must brew to unlock your frother. Or there’s, you know, that other way of unlocking it, which we are totally not forcing you to do, just go do the same thing 10000 times. Oh I nearly forgot, I should have mentioned, that frother is only available for a limited time. We can’t say how long. And once it’s gone, who knows when it will be back? Not you, maybe us, but not you. So you should probably do whatever you can to get it now before it’s gone and we might replace it with something less desirable, like a bag to store coffee beans. But it could also be something which brews the best coffee ever and if you bought the frother, maybe you won’t be able to get the new thing?

    No need to worry about that! I’m not sure if this came up yet, but you can pay us $500 to skip the hours and hours of repetitiveness. As long as we are online. Enjoy!

    If you’ve not bought it yet, don’t. It was already very hard to earn enough for the high end cars, the lack of big money pay out events is seriously limiting on a game about collecting cars. Add to that the massive reliance on a server connection to play even single player is crippling when the server is not available. Wait, make them sort it out before parting with your money.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Always played this series, loved building a collection of cars and racing real and created tracks.

    This new iteration now means hours of endless grinding (20 hours) to buy a top end car. I can’t do 20 hrs of the same track without losing my mind just to buy one car that you can’t sell if you don’t like.

    The game is £70, for that you expect to be able to achieve what you want and build a car collection. Not enough races or campaigns (just an introduction set of challenges). Small payouts and loot box style system for key upgrades. This was the reason I never bought battle front 2, 2 years of constant daily graft to unlock a game that you already paid for.

    Greed is killing the games we used to love.

If they reverse their microtransaction and always online mechanics, I might be inclined to adjust my score. But until then, Sony, Polyphony Digital and the gaming industry must learn from this - no amount of reputation gives you a pass for anti consumer gaming practices.

    How to ruin a highly anticipated game and decades of trust in 2 weeks. The first sign was the obviously rigged roulette spins, which even my kids joked "you always get the worst prize", but now slashing the in game rewards and a 24hr plus outage for a needlessly "always online" game is scummy at its finest. Do not purchase unless major changes are made!

    BUT
    After a solid start, while almost finishing the whole campaign (menu books), I realized that rolling starts from the back of the pack without any chance of qualifying aren't real racing like. The payouts for the races were ok offline, but after spending about 400k on a r32 skyline to be competitive in sport mode (online), and getting 18k as payout for first place I feel robbed.
    They nerfed other races payouts in single player mode with the idea of pushing the player towards microtransactions... The option is always given, right under the payout screen.
    Since yesterdays update I'm not able to access the game anymore, because you are forced to have internet and a connection to the servers all the time. Which is absolutely nuts and reminds me of the NEED FOR SPEED from 2015, and EA learned from that, apparently. PD is 7 years late like the internet explorer and forces it's players to be constantly connected to the playstation network and their servers. Very customer friendly.
    If you're thinking of buying the game. Get the PCSX2 emulator and a copy of gran turismo 4, and you'll get a finished game which you're surely be happy with. And the crash mechanics are the same btw. For both titles. Or you can get your hands on Forza and not be forced to spend extra cash after buying the initial game for 80€...

    Maybe they will fix it, but I'm really disappointed for a legacy title, especially from a Sony "first hand" developer. Shame on you PolyPHONY Digital. Shame on the gaming industry and their constant push for micro transactions.
    THIS WEEK THEY PUT A LEGENDARY VEHICLE I THE LEGENDARY CARS MARKET, WHICH COSTS 18.5 MIL., THAT'S 185€ IN MICROTRANSACTIONS!!!

Indeed, they have largely reduced the credits earned per race and it becomes ridiculously long and time-consuming, needless to say also ultra boring to earn new credits to buy new cars. Other modes than the solo mode are not rewarding at all, and the utmost shame is that a lot of cars are very expensive, some of them costing the equivalent of +30h of farming in terrible conditions. There are +400 cars in the game, and what we want as players is to be able to earn new cars at a regular pace to enjoy them, and not to have to wait 5 years before buying thisbeloved and long-desired 12m Jaguar.

    Polyphony created at the last minute before the release of the game extremely unaffordable MTs in prevision of such moves, and as of now you may spend 120e of real money just to buy ONE car if you cannot farm. This is absolutely unacceptable because we do not want to pay 1000 euros a full game, but not to be deceived by a game maker that already sells its game 80e. The endless maintenance today also proves that the compulsory online servers to play the solo was a bad idea and destroys the gaming experience for which we had very high expectations, considering the prestige of the games, and their past mistakes.

    It seems that Kazunogain and his teams don't learn ! The game is failing on some parts but stays a pretty good game who deserve a grade between 7 and 9, it is too bad to waste such an experience with bad decisions and treacherous MTs.

    If the policy regarding the reduction of credits flips back, I will reconsider my grade and will eventually regrade the game by a 7+.

    We'll be a lot to do that, so please hear us ! It's a massive and collective complaint (just check Reddit, Twitter, GTPlanet).

    I hope we'll be heard. Sincerely from France,

Ce n'est pas l'ajout de quelques effets sur la dualsens et un léger upscale qui pour moi justifie une "version" PS5. Cela ne rempli pas la charte certes morale d'un jeu PS5.

    De plus on nous promet un retour aux sources qui n'existe pas véritablement avec au final très peu de course et championnat, aucune endurance. La plupart des anciens circuits sont absents, personnellement j'adorais les villes totalement absentes du jeu à l'heure actuelle. Alors ok on nous fait miroiter des mises à jour mais moi j'ai déjà payé le jeu au prix fort. Comme retour aux sources je m'attendais à un fleuve et j'ai eu un ruisseau.

    Maintenant les micro transaction qui sont la base du jeu qui clairement est construit pour être frustrant et inciter à sortie la carte bleu j'aurais préféré le savoir avant de précommander, masquer les choses jusqu'à la dernière minute c'est moche. Malheureusement on commence à connaitre les nouvelles méthodes de Sony. Pourquoi ne peut on pas revendre les véhicules gagner, pourquoi des gains sont aussi faible comparé aux précédents GT. Gtsport était un beta test du nouveau système vénal de Polyphony digital orchestré par Sony certainement et ils l'ont appliqué au centuple dans GT7.

    On nous promet plus de 420 véhicules dans le jeu mais combien sont ils présents réellement dans le jeu à l'achat? Impossible d'acheter les véhicules de la liste avant plusieurs semaines / mois tant que Polyphony n'aura pas décidé de les faire apparaitre brièvement dans le marché occasion. Un conseil, connectez vous tous les jours pour ne pas rater le coche. Seule une poignée de véhicule est disponible actuellement. Pourquoi afficher autant de véhicule dans la promotion d'un jeu lorsque même plein aux as ils nous est impossible de les acheter?

    Je ne parle même pas des véhicules légendaire dont les tarifs prohibitifs sont conçus pour sortir la CB. 20€ bien réel pour 2 000 000 cr en jeu soit 120€ pour un véhicule à 12 000 000 de cr
    C'est véhicules vont bientôt arriver en masse dans le jeu et il ne vous restera qu'a jouer pendant plusieurs années pour vous en offrir 1 alors choisissez bien ou alors sortez votre CB. Idem pour les véhicules moins couteux ou il faut attendre une invitation "arbitraire?" et temporaire pour pouvoir acheter le véhicule.

    Il reste aussi la solution insipide de farmer un circuit inlassablement pour espérer obtenir une petite partie du contenu du jeu qui vous est promis par le marketing mais pour cela il faudrait encore que Polyphony ne réduise pas les gains par deux comme cela vient d'arriver après une semaine de sortie de jeu. Ah oui les règles peuvent changer après votre achat du jeu.

    On en parle du solo accessible uniquement si vous avez une connexion internet? Cela fait 24h que le jeu est tout bonnement indisponible pour l'ensemble des joueurs car les serveurs du jeu sont KO. Quelle qu'en soit la raison, on achète un jeu ou l'on peut jouer si les serveurs de polyphony sont en ligne et si notre opérateur internet n'est pas susceptible.

    Alors oui je suis un fan de la licence de la première heure mais aigri/frustré par la transformation de ma licence fétiche en machine à cash au mépris de sa communauté sans qui Polyphony ne serait rien.

    Le jeu est plutôt bon, je n'ai pas rejoué a GT depuis le tout premier sur psx, c'est avec plaisir que je redécouvre la licence.

    Cependant, les tickets de loterie truqués, le faible gain des courses, le système de marché d'occasion foireux, l'impossibilité de revendre ses voitures et surtout l'impossibilité de jouer au jeu en solo hors ligne quand il est en maintenance ( en ce moment plus de 24h sans pouvoir jouer) font que l'expérience en est fortement gâchée.

    De plus, on apprend qu'au fur et a mesure des mises a jour, les gains sont revu à la baisse, tout ça pour pousser le jouer a payer avec le l'argent réel les crédits du jeu si il veux les voitures les plus cher sans devoir passer sa vie sur le jeu, nois ne sommes pas tous des chômeurs, et il a été prouvé que les gains sur ce gt7 sont de base largement inférieur aux anciens GT, mais ils continuent a aller à la baisse...

    Je m'engage a modifié ma note si ce système est revue à la hausse et qu'ils se calment avec cette pratique honteuse digne d'un jeu free2play, GT m'a coûté 70€ je ne veux pas rapasser a la caisse ni passer ma vie sur le jeu.

    The game is good and i had so much fun on it. Graphics are very well.

    But i cannot give this game more than a 0. Fan of gran turismo series and always in love with Le Mans cars, in this game, it's a big problem if you're not rich in real life.

Microtransactions cost are very high, 2 million credits for 20$, so a car costing 12 million cost you 120$.

    And i need to speak of the updates too. Update 1.06 give us a lot of problem, impossibile to do some mission or licence because they put wrong tires on it and we remain a whole week with this problem. Update 1.07 is the worst update i ever see in my life. Updating a game for me mean to make the game better. But they decide to do the opposite. You cannot play the game anymore because the servers are down for maintenance from yesterday morning and you know that when the game will be playable, you will not have the opportunity to earn a decent amount of credits to purchase the cars you love unless you can play all day 10 hours.

When I saw they were rebalancing the race payouts, I thought, “Great they are listening to their fans”. Except, they were not. They have reduced payouts, making some cars take literal days of grinding literally one or two tracks with almost acceptable payouts. Its just greed to push towards microtransactions, as are many of the other design choices. Invites to buy cars, used and legendary cars rotate in real life days rather than in game days as it used to be. Oh and as of writing this review, their update to nerf payouts (which once again, were already too low) has broken the game and put it offline for 24 hours, because of unnecessary always online for a primarily single player game. Honestly, if they just increased custom race payouts 10-20x I would be happy (yes, they currently pay that bad…) Expand

Other modes than the solo mode are not rewarding at all, and the utmost shame is that a lot of cars are very expensive, some of them costing the equivalent of +30h of farming in terrible conditions. There are +400 cars in the game, and what we want as players is to be able to earn new cars at a regular pace to enjoy them, and not to have to wait 5 years before buying thisbeloved and long-desired 12m Jaguar.

    Polyphony created at the last minute before the release of the game extremely unaffordable MTs in prevision of such moves, and as of now you may spend 120e of real money just to buy ONE car if you cannot farm. This is absolutely unacceptable because we do not want to pay 1000 euros a full game, but not to be deceived by a game maker that already sells its game 80e. The endless maintenance today also proves that the compulsory online servers to play the solo was a bad idea and destroys the gaming experience for which we had very high expectations, considering the prestige of the games, and their past mistakes.

    It seems that Kazunogain and his teams don't learn ! The game is failing on some parts but stays a pretty good game who deserve a grade between 7 and 9, it is too bad to waste such an experience with bad decisions and treacherous MTs.

    If the policy regarding the reduction of credits flips back, I will reconsider my grade and will eventually regrade the game by a 7+.

    We'll be a lot to do that, so please hear us ! It's a massive and collective complaint (just check Reddit, Twitter, GTPlanet).

    Why can’t we sell cars? It was a core mechanic of previous games - again pushing us towards mtx.

    Why is the campaign so sparse? It feels like GT4 and 5 had more content. The cafe feature is a glorified tutorial and the lack of traditional campaign absolute sucks, cafe feels so linear and boring/sanitised. No endurance races and b-spec as well. An honesty pathetic attempt at a Gran turismo game, feels like a rehash of sport designed as a ‘proper’ Gran Turismo.

    I have created an account here solely for this game. This is how strongly I feel about this game.

    I have been gaming for 32 years. I have bought every GT release ever, including all the prologues, specs etc. So I am a big GT lover. This game has been the one game above all else that I have been the most excited for.

    For the first 2 weeks, the game was a joy to play, and I was bemused by the complaints of other gamers. Visuals, sound, car physics etc are all top work. No complaints here at all.

    However, it becomes crystal clear when you are progressing through the Cafe mode, that the big thing in this game, is the microtransactions and the lack of the GT campaign. After the Cafe mode, which is a forced car collection, there is no GT campaign mode as you have in previous games. There is no section that lists the Amateur, Beginner, professional etc races. No menu where you can jump into the Sunday Cups, or the FF/FR Challenges etc.

    Gran Turismo without its campaign mode, and an easy way to jump into competition races, is absolutely abhorrent. This should have been made perfectly clear to us before buying the game.

    As you play the Cafe mode, you get roulette tickets for completing certain aspects - the roulette tickets are then an RNG encounter that is heavily, and I mean HEAVILY weighted to give you the lowest reward possible, and then IMMEDIATELY prompts you to buy credits from PSN. I am talking situations where there are 5 rewards, for example a race car, 500k credits, a engine swap, 1million credits, 5k credits. I have yet to receive any cars, any car parts, any gold bars. For every ticket, it has been the lowest credit reward. Reading social comments, this is the same for a large chunk of players.

    But it is ok, because you can sell your cars that you ha......oh no. Wait. Nope. Despite the PSN description saying it, and despite it being in GT games forever, you cannot sell your cars for credits. The push for MTX is sickening.

    But that isn't it.

    PD are that intent on forcing the MTX, that just yesterday they pushed an update which slashed the credits received for a load of races you select by navigating to the track selector. They did this because gamers were playing one track over and over to get credits, as the game as very little way of rewarding you.

    This update killed the game by the way, and as of writing this some 24 hours later, it is still broken. PD want this game online only as they are concerned about credit trading and hacking, so this £70 game is now useless when they are broken their end. (still cant play now)

    Playing the game naturally doesn't give the user the credits as they approach the end of the Cafe. In order for the player to gain new cars, aside the daily mileage rewards, there literally is nothing presented to the player. You can't jump into a menu with the competitions in as one doesn't exist. If you want to do a race that was in the Sunday Cup for example, you have to go to the track world, select one of the 3 world areas, then go through each track and select it, and then check what event it is used for, then select the event you want. Crazy navigations.

    When we saw the trailers, you see CGI of race weekends, with the trucks and trailers and pit crews etc. As of menu book 37 in the Cafe mode, there has been 1 race with standing starts, and 0 with tyre wear or fuel usage, and 0 with pit action.

    There are more things I could mention but I just don't have the effort in me to trash the GT name anymore. I am not angry, even though I should be. I am sorely disappointed that a franchise such as GT has been allowed to become a cesspool of MTX. There has been 0 thought here about how the player will feel with this aggressive push towards buying credits.

    The maddening thing, is that the game has all the ingredients there to be a superb racing game ; but they have thrown up a wall of MTX to halt the players progress in the hope they will use their credit card.

    This game has been deleted off my system, and unless there is a huge overhaul of this game, the GT franchise is now dead to me.

    The economy in the game is horrible. Recent update just made it worse by nerfing the payouts of most of the races. This game also requires internet even when you want to play singleplayer. So if there is maintenance going on, you can't access anything else other than arcade mode which is awful. Come on PD, what are you doing? This game has so much more potential but you guys are ruining it.

    The server drama this game has gone through is extremely poor, how ever the fact that PG changed the earnings in the last update to be 40%-50% less so you'd be pushed towards microtransactions is appalling. If I could get my money back, I would un a blink. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS SC! Sony should be disgusted in themselves

    The real driving simlulator means you can't afford your dream cars in both real life and in game
    Micro transaction is cancer

    Bonjour,sachez que j'aime beaucoup les Jeux de voiture,mais la, Inadmissible cette baisse de rémunération au course, tout ce traffic pour favoriser les micro transaction, et cerise sur le gâteau, que je ne puisse pas joué à mon jeu quand je veux sous prétexte qu'il faut être connecté, la du coup coup 24hque personne ne peu joué, inacceptable.

    First review on the site. Been playing GT since GT1 back in 1998. Been playing sim racing games my whole life. I have the highest respect for Polyphony Digital and Kazunori Yamauchi before this, but not anymore. The last 2 weeks, and especially last 24 hours after v1.07 update and extended server outage, have destroyed any trust I have in the series.

    1) This is an AAA game sold at full
    First review on the site. Been playing GT since GT1 back in 1998. Been playing sim racing games my whole life. I have the highest respect for Polyphony Digital and Kazunori Yamauchi before this, but not anymore. The last 2 weeks, and especially last 24 hours after v1.07 update and extended server outage, have destroyed any trust I have in the series.

    1) This is an AAA game sold at full price, but it is designed like a freemium mobile game with predatory microtransactions. Credits are very hard to come by (e.g. the most expensive car needed 11+ hours of racing to buy before the update). But you can buy credit packs from PSN ($300 AUD for the aforementioned car). Buying parts for tuning cost money. Visual customization cost money. And the latest update has slashed the highest earning race payout in half.

    2) Lootboxes. You get a roulette ticket for completing races, but nothing good ever comes out of it. You get pitiful credits, and never good cars or parts. Again it pushes you towards MTX.

    3) Time limited dealerships. New Car Dealer has "invite system" for the most desirable cars. How to get invited? You guessed it - through random roulette. Used Car Dealer and Legendary Dealer cycle randomly every 24 hours. If you haven't got enough credits to buy a car when it appears, tough luck as MTX is your only option.

    4) Cannot sell cars like in previous games. You can only remove them from garage. Again, this reduces the chance to earn credits.

    5) Engine swaps, one of the most exciting feature, is also locked behind the random roulette.

    6) Bugs and glitches. Numerous issues from release day, some halting progression entirely. Each new update brings its own set of bugs as well. And they prioritized reducing the race payouts instead of fixing them.

    7) Always online. Said to reduce cheating. Sure, but offline play should be exempt from this. Currently the server has been out for 24+ hours with zero explanation or ETA from the developer.

    8) Physics issues. RWD and 4WD road cars have a fatal physics flaw as their rear tyre breaks traction way too easily. Wheel FFB is lacking (they spent all their time optimizing DualShock 5 and forgot about us hardcore simracers). Lots of tuning exploits to game the PP (performance rating) system and imbalances online play.

    9) Lack of cars and tracks. Roughly 300/400 cars and 29/33 tracks are carried over from GT Sport. The new cars are often outdated models. They are bringing classic fictional tracks back, but the layout and atmosphere has been altered significantly. Monthly updates only brings 3 cars each month, and often these are Vision GT concepts that nobody wants, or slight variants of existing models.

    10) Boring career mode. Lack of events - lots of cars have no specific championship (Gr.2, Formula cars). AI is still painfully slow and unaware of your car. Most races are catch the rabbit type events with no actual racing. Updates only add a few races that are over in an hour of gameplay. Not to mention still a distinct lack of high paying races forcing you to grind the same 4 events over and over.

    11) Music Rally. Useless feature. Development time could have been spent adding an improved Course Maker from GT5/6 instead.

    12) GT Cafe. Great idea, but execution is hampered by the lacking car list, poor racing and all the problems above. Also very short and you barely have enough credits to buy all the cars once its done. EDIT: They added new menu books but these are just "buy x cars and get x reward", no actual racing.

    Good things: graphics and photomode are still as gorgeous as ever. Wet weather driving is truly dynamic with wind speed, weather radar, drying lines and puddles/aquaplaning. Soundtrack still carries that signature GT feel (although a lot of tracks are also recycled from previous games). But these are features that are to be expected nowadays, and they are greatly outweighed by the negatives above.

    Conclusion: lacking in content and racing, poor physics on a wheel, lots of bugs and always online requirement. This is a full priced title but designed like an F2P game to make you cough up even more money if you want to enjoy all of the (already limited) content. The latest update reduced payouts even more, and also breaks the server for 24+ hours so nobody can play. Zero explanations given by developer. Certainly the worst GT game by far (including Prologues and spinoffs like GT PSP), and shows a worrying trend by Polyphony Digital for the future. Kazunori should be ashamed of betraying the trust of so many car lovers worldwide who has supported the series since it's inception.

    EDIT: 7 months and several updates later, things are barely better. Grind is still atrocious, still lack of events/cars/tracks, unstable online lobbies, promised feature missing (car selling). Sad to say this game still deserves its 0 score.

    Paid $70 for a AAA game just to not be able to play it. I logged in TWICE once at 2am~ yesterday and today at 3am~ to find 24+ hours later the servers are STILL under maintenance. Clearly the devs are too incompetent work on their own game.

Servers have been down past couple of days and you're not allowed to do anything but a one-off race that does not count towards any progress. Moreover, this installment is heavily biased towards making you buy microtransactions and/or grinding the same race for hours to get a basic car. I genuinely do not understand how developers keep making the same mistakes and do not learn from one another. Microtransactions kill games, kill the grind and ultimately are a middle finger towards your fanbase. This is not a free-to-play or some indie game, everyone's paid around 70 pounds to get access to play this game and it's been designed to milk more cash from the players. It is no longer a "driving simulator," the game is literally a "car collector" game and the game does not hide this either. Your main level rank is a "car collector level." You are also not allowed to sell any cars and they've removed the free daily car that you'd get from GT Sport. Expand

    Sadly, modern gaming (anti-)patterns have reached a once beloved game series and we see the unholy trio: greed (in the form of cutting in-game rewards to push microtransactions), loot boxes (in the form of tickets which are heavily weighted towards giving the worst prize) and "anti-cheat" (in the form of online-only gameplay even for single player experiences).

    Sadly, modern gaming (anti-)patterns have reached a once beloved game series and we see the unholy trio: greed (in the form of cutting in-game rewards to push microtransactions), loot boxes (in the form of tickets which are heavily weighted towards giving the worst prize) and "anti-cheat" (in the form of online-only gameplay even for single player experiences).

    The driving itself is fun, but online playing (if the servers work, which they do not for a while now) is borderline impossible since you need credits to tune your car.

    Single player would be fun if there was something after the GT cafe. What is left after the shortest single player campaign in a GT game ever is the collection and tuning of cars and trying them out on the track. If you have the credits. Which you don't. If you can get the cars. Which you can't, since it's a roulette wheel of daily prizes. If you can play at all. Which you can't since the servers are down.

    Still, the driving is really fun. The Dualsense implementation is top notch and if Polyphony manages to at least remove the greedy practices, I'm sure we can have a good overall game. In its current unplayable state, the money is better spent somewhere else.

    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.
