Title: Gran Turismo 7 already announced
Post by: Titan on November 25, 2013, 01:51:00 PM
Jesus. They haven't even released Gran Turismo 6 yet for PS3 and they are already saying Gran Turismo 7 is in the works and getting released "soon" for PS4? Don't understand why they just didn't make GT6 cross platform. They seem to know what they're doing. Hoping they don't flood the market with GT games in one year. Seeing as I'm planning on getting a PS4 within the next few months, I may just skip GT6. I still haven't even gotten halfway with GT5 :)

The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One are already swimming in racing titles. Forza Motorsport 5 and Need for Speed: Rivals were both a part of the next-gen launch lineup, and DriveClub will hit the market early next year. Despite the competition, though, the folks at Polyphony Digital, the developer behind Gran Turismo, are planning to make their own next-gen splash. And if Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi gets his wish, the game will be here very soon.

"We don't want to take too long on Gran Turismo 7," Yamauchi said in an interview with Top Gear. "Best-case scenario? Next year."

When you consider that Gran Turismo 6 is scheduled to be released on December 6th, a 2014 launch for GT7 seems like an impossibly lofty goal. But Yamauchi obviously doesn't agree.

"In GT6 we really had to tune the software 100 per cent to maximize the PS3's architecture," he explained, "but of course the PS4's hardware is much better, so I think the overall quality of the game across the board will be boosted when you come to play it".

Plus, Yamauchi isn't concerned about the competition. For him, the racing community is a tightly knit group, and there's enough support to go around. "We always respect our competition," he said. "The racing genre isn't really that big in its entirety, so I'm glad that everyone works hard to boost the genre as a whole."

I hammered GT5 pretty much to death and will do the same with GT6 as I have it preordered. It look superb and doesn't look last gen when compared to Drive Club and Forza 5.

Apparently it's much much easier to develop games for the PS4. Makes sense....since it was a game developer (from Naughty Dog, I think) that helped lead the PS4 development.

Wouldn't surprise me. Naughty dog I has never put our a bad game. I'll pretty much buy any game they make.
