Kazunori Yamauchi proudly explained, in interviews ahead of Gran Turismo 7’s launch, that the game’s core development team has remained unchanged despite 25 years of working on the series. It shows. GT7 looks, sounds and feels like that PS1 classic, only now in Ultra HD on PS5. The devs have learned from several mistakes along the way, honed its triumphs, and the result is pure class.
The latest entry in the series is certainly not brash and flashy like Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec, nor has it disappeared up its own exhaust pipe like GT5. It’ll be familiar to anyone who’s enjoyed GT Sport these past few years, but imagine that game bolstered with everything else the series used to have – namely old tracks, modding, tuning, and a massive career mode. Oh, and the car wash button. Now you’re close to imagining GT7.
The main single-player career is roughly 30 hours long. This sees you visiting the new ‘Gran Turismo Café’, completing ‘menus’ of cars from various marques either by buying them or winning them in races. After every few menus you will have a short championship to enter, normally comprising three races. Each menu and championship takes about 20 minutes to complete, after which you return to the café to hear about the new cars you’ve collected.
