Don’t forget to check out Polyphony’s announcement regarding post-launch plans and improvements right here. If you haven’t picked the game up yet, go read our review where we state, “Gran Turismo 7 represents a true return to form for Polyphony Digital. Despite being the seventh mainline iteration, the team is still able to keep the series feeling fresh with its new coat of paint and innovative technology with its new weather system (and even a new AI tech called “Sophy”). For Gran Turismo players out there thinking this might be a half step measure, it’s not; it’s a full blown experience and so much more.”
