14 DAY TRIAL // Polyphony Digital boss Kazunori Yamauchi has talked a bit about the long-awaited Gran Turismo 7 racing simulator, confirming that it uses the power of the PS4, but also that it might not appear until 2016.
Gran Turismo 6 launched last December for the PS3, despite the fact that the PS4 had already been on sale for around a month or so. Even before then, Polyphony Digital promised that an overhauled Gran Turismo 7 would appear for the PS4 as soon as possible, hinting at a late 2014 or 2015 release.
Now, Polyphony boss Kazunori Yamauchi has talked with GamesTM and hinted that the launch period might be extended to cover not just 2015 but also 2016, as his team wants to do everything it wanted to do in Gran Turismo 6 but couldn't due to PS3 hardware constraints.
"For GT7, myself and my staff have a clear vision: to do everything we couldn’t do in GT6. We want to make it very Gran Turismo. By that I mean it’s going to be a game that matches the very era that we live in, in 2015 or 2016," Yamauchi explains.
As such, it seems that Gran Turismo fans might have to once again play the waiting game and see just when the next title is going to appear in the series.
