PlayStation has announced that it will broadcast a Gran Turismo 7 State of Play on Wednesday, February 2.
The event will be shown on Twitch and YouTube, starting at 2pm Pacific / 5pm Eastern / 10pm UK (that’s February 3 at 9am AEDT).
Sony says the broadcast will include “30 minutes of new PS5 footage and gameplay details,” and adds that it will cover modes and features in the upcoming driving simulator.
After a delay, Gran Turismo 7 will be released for PS5 and PS4 on March 4, 2022.
Creator Kazunori Yamauchi says the game will be “a title that connects the past to the present and to the future”, aiming to bring together 25 years of the series’ history into a single game. The game will feature returning features (the used car dealership, variable time and weather) and tracks (High Speed Ring and Trial Mountain) alongside its new inclusions.
It will also include a controversial always-online connection, but Yamauchi says that’s to prevent cheating and allow for livery data to work properly.
