    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.

    PD, why did you screw up your new game?

    Microtransactions everywhere, cars heavily overpriced, proper GT career does not exist, not enough events for cars, the graphics are still from the previous generation, weak and very slow updates...
    and the developers are just silent.

    just a terrible live service game! GT4 forever!

    This is the worst game I've ever played and have never felt as conned out of my money as I do now. I made the mistake of watching a review from PD shill SuperGT on YouTube instead of getting an accurate measure from honest people. This is my finish with Sony aswell as their customer service is appalling.

    The cars are polished, but the game is not. Polyphony Digital ignores player feedback. This series has gone downhill ever since it went 'online'. Note: The devs shut down past game servers within just a few years of them launching.

    The cars are polished, but the game is not. Polyphony Digital ignores player feedback. This series has gone downhill ever since it went 'online'. Note: The devs shut down past game servers within just a few years of them launching.

    Internet & updates:
    - When server maintenance happens, most game features become unavailable.
    - Want to play 2-player split screen? you need to connect to their server.
    - Want to play offline? you can only choose from 13 cars in the arcade.
    - Lackluster updates add game crashings bugs, generic tracks and more cars.

    Economy:
    - The economy is deliberately fudged so they can sell microtransactions.
    - Race rewards are poor. There are too many expensive cars and tuning parts.
    - Patch updates have nerfed race rewards and even tripled car prices.
    - You cannot test drive cars at the dealership (or sell cars you own).

    Restrictions:
    - Performance points (PP) restrictions are absolutely frustrating.
    - Races have restrictions but patch updates keep changing car PP numbers.
    - You enter a race one day, and then next update; your car is not eligible.
    - Your time and money is wasted. Too often you will be down-tuning your cars.

    Licences & pre-race:
    - It is cumbersome to look for cars (no search, just big lists to scroll).
    - The higher level License tests are optional (no races require them).
    - Some license tests e.g Laguna Seca, you will need a lot of luck to pass.
    - There is no race qualifying option or B-spec mode in the campaign.

    Racing experience:
    - Game is heavily optimised for racing wheels (controller is less precise).
    - Too many rolling starts (leading cars are half a lap ahead on short tracks).
    - The driving speed feels good but the mph/kmh numbers seem exaggerated.
    - A.I. are generally on a fixed path and often end up driving into you.

    Penalties & damage:
    - Events with penalties suck. Hit a wall by accident? get penalized twice.
    - Events with car damage suck. Scratch a wall and the car drives all wonky.
    - After around 30 seconds the car magically recovers from any incident.
    - No car body damage, only scratches that just disappear after a race.

    Weather & Tracks:
    - Terrible rain effect on all cars, it is as slippery as black ice.
    - Hard tires lose all grip after like 5-8 laps, it is beyond unrealistic.
    - Rally races are awful, cars float and launch into the air comically.
    - Lack of track variety. There are no winter/snow or city tracks.

    Prizes & RNG:
    - To motivate racing daily, there is a roulette wheel prize. It is rigged.
    - All prizes are pre-selected - the spinning animation is just for show.
    - The best car parts are locked behind RNG (can't be bought at tuning shop).
    - You need to win a 'invite' to be able to buy some cars at the dealership.

    I got the platinum trophy but felt no joy. The core of this game is rotten.

    The best racing game I've ever played. Excellent setting, a game that is chosen by people who like an honest simulation or a scary arcade. Basically, only people who can't drive and prefer to play bad games like the NFS and Forza series don't like this game.

    EDIT update 2.2: I've revised the score to 0. This isn't the worse game in the world, but I've never, ever known a developer so intent on making a game worse with every single update. 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.

    I turned off GT7 last night in disgust after the update and I think that will be the last time.

    - WARNING BUY AT YOUR OWN RISK

    They want you to use MTX in a full price game
    - Cars are much more expensive than in previous games. Some updates made cars that were already expensive more expensive.
    - Payouts seem lower than before and when there is one that pays out well Polyphony cuts the pay out by about half
    - Many other pay outs were lowered as well, two were raised but that does not cover the amount that was lowered so a net loss for users
    - The "roulette" cards are rigged. In my experience you get the lowest prize about 90% of the time. Outside of the cars or other credit prizes they are generally worthless. Especially the "prize" that then allows you to spend 2 million credits on a car that you are now allowed to buy. Seems like predatory MTX practices to me.

    They are not honest
    - Claimed you can sell cars, you cannot
    - In an "apology" post they want you to see the long term vision, translating that from corporate speak means "we will not change anything and just ride out the wave of anger and continue our predatory MTX practices"
    - Can't stress this enough as of 9/29/2022 you still cannot SELL cars

    Single player is online only
    - You cannot play the single player offline races without an internet connect AND their servers need to be up and running
    - Early one their servers were down for roughly 30 hours severely limiting what you could play (it was not worth playing)
    - It took them about 20 hours to even post any type of statement about what the problem was or when a resolution might be in place
    - The interface to get from one area or race to another is not great. A lot of button presses and even more to exit a race.

    Multiplayer
    - Rammers are all over. You might have some clean races but do not expect to
    - You can get rammed, get a penalty for that and the rammer gets nothing
    - You might barely tap another car and get a penalty
    - Really frustrating. Almost at the same level of racing Monza on the F1 game in an open lobby.

    Conclusion
    - Play another racing game, this one is not worth your time

    Been a GT fan since GT5. I'm a casual player, so multi-player isn't important.

    The game still looks fantastic, even on a PS4 (which I use). Driving physics are tougher than GT Sport and I rely on GTPlanet.com for tuning recommendations. Game play is still challenging

    My main criticisms involve game play rewards (roulette tickets) and (hardly) microtransactions.

    I usually grind each day to get two tickets (one for completing a cafe book, another for completing a daily workout). I usually receive 3,000 credits (the lowest amount) or tuning parts for cars I don't own. The most I've ever received was 30,000 credits. Compare this to GT Sport, where each reward brings the chance of winning a car (more than generous). I'd like to see a more reasonable breakdown of rewards - currently, it's usually one car, one tuning part, and three levels of credits. Dump the tuning parts (which is useless unless you own the car) and replace it with another car

    Microtransactions are hardly that. As many cars cost 1,000,000 credits (which is difficult to get through game play), you're pretty much forced to pay $14.98 for 1,000,000 credits (750,000 + 250,000) or $19.99 for 2,000,000 credits. A legendary car can go for upwards of 20,000,000 credits, which is $199.00 FOR A DIGITAL CAR. Until Sony and Polyphony can come up with something more reasonable, it's just a cash grab

    addendum: I dropped $20 to add 2,000,000 credits for tuning upgrades. Lo and behold, just received an invite to purchase a Bugatti. Cost of the car? 2,000,000. Coincidence? I think not

    Feels like a return to form after the disappointing GT Sport, but still not quite the car messiah I expected it to be. The DualSense takes driving with a controller to a whole new level, but the microtransactions almost ruin the whole experience.

    This game is probably the best racing you can get but it is a problem that when servers are down there isn’t much too entertain you until there back up. Micro transactions are all optional and playing the campaign you are given a lot of cars. It would be better if they weren’t there but they aren’t intrusive.

Up to try any genre of games and sometimes I find something new that I didn't think I'd like. I own a PC (built by me), Xbox One X, Xbox Series X, PS3, PS4, PS5, and a Switch. I prefer Playstation due to their focus on narrative games. For scoring, I’ll be using the Gameinformer review scale and of coursed influenced by my personal opinions.

    (9)Superb. Just shy of gaming nirvana, this score is a high recommendation because the game reviewed is head-and shoulders above its competition

    Bad Business Practices
    (-1) Game Economy makes it impossible for a player to unlock all the content of the single player aspect of the game without paying into the microtransactions.
    (-1) Online Only makes it impossible for people without an internet connection to even play the single player part of the game.

    I’m giving this a nine due to its Sports Mode, and Café mode.

    Sports Mode is Gran Turismo’s ranked multiplayer mode. Each week they release 3 new races, and one time travel to compete against everyone in the world. In sports mode you’ll be given a driver’s rating and a sportsmanship ranking to help put people in lobbies of likeminded/skilled racers as you. At first you’ll be constantly changing as the game learns more about you but will eventually stabilize within a month. Two of the three races are based on a certain group of cars that usually cost around 350-450k while the other is based on a specific car which people can change the set-up on. You can always rent a car at no cost to you if you don’t have a car the meets the requirement. My only complaint about Sports mode is that the payout is very small which forces you to make money through Single Player to be able to afford cars in a reasonable amount of time.

    Café Mode is the campaign mode of Gran Turismo. It dives into the history of auto-racing, car types, and car manufactures which is very unique when compared to other racing games. It’s an innovating idea which has the player race/collect certain cars and then they give a 2-5min history lesson. There are a few issues with the Single Player which is that the AI is too easy to beat even on the hardest difficulty and you don’t have the option to qualify.

    I have been a huge fan of past GT's but the most recent has several notable flaws. The beginning of the game is unintuitive and takes an exorbitant amount of time to unlock key aspects such as unlocking famous tracks I want to experience such as the Nurburgring. The game also lacks key tracks such as the only F1 track in North America COTA's. And important automobile companies such as Lotus.

I paid for a 25th anniversary edition around 100$ and I can’t play because either, I get an update, or the server is down… frankly unacceptable.

    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.

    This is a real shame and Sony should know better to ruin a really good franchise like Gran Tourismo. So in the future it will be Forza and not GT…

    So I bought it two weeks ago. I can not compare it to how it was before as I do not know but as a new buyer how does it feel.

    The game play is fairly good. Not to much different from GT sport but still a bit freshness here and there. (My son aged 9 had a different take. After looking at me playing for 10 minutes he asked "what's the difference? it's the same game!" :)

    However earning money is still difficult and the thing that annoys me the most is the reward roulette!

    When you complete certain actions including your daily workout, I.e. drive roughly 26 km you get a price. In GT sport the daily workout resulted in a roulette of one of five cars. Now it is either car(s) , car parts or (always) money in different amounts. During my play and at least 18 roulette spins (one star and two star) I have consistently been awarded the lowest award which is worth next to nothing. I've been sitting, hoping against better judgement, that I would receive a good reward this time but alas no.

    It almost felt personal sitting there getting that low reward every time, feeling cheated, and realizing that they are so greedy that they mess with such a minor thing as the probabilitíes of the roulette.

    So all in all, according to others better than before, still irritatingly greedy in a way that has impacted my interest in playing further and in my opinion ruining the possibility of a good gaming experience. You can not have all the fun you as a gamer like and deserve without paying a lot of extra for an already AAA-priced game. Stay away for a bit longer and hope they keep adjusting.

    Low quality game. The developers Polyphony Digital are now oned by Sony and haven't made a good game since Gran Turismo 5. More like a mobile game.

    The love for games here is exceptional. The detail of every vehicle, the love and attention to every little screw and panel line are obsessive. I had a great time playing this stunningly beautiful and great sounding game. I just wish I could play it offline as my internet is with Virgin Media, which means I am only connected for a few minutes at a time before it drops out again. and theThe love for games here is exceptional.

I no longer play it. But I hope to return to the franchise when they fix the money grabbing aspect. it would have got a 9 or a 10 but sadly this drives it down to a 5 for me. 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.
