Gran Turismo 7 pushed into 2022

Gran Turismo 7 pushed into 2022

It seems that the pandemic has scored another victim, in that Gran Turismo 7 has been delayed from its late 2021 release, until sometime in 2022. A PlayStation spokesman confirmed so via a statement.

“Gran Turismo 7 has been impacted by COVID-related production challenges and therefore will shift from 2021 to 2022. With the ongoing pandemic, it’s a dynamic and changing situation and some critical aspects of game production have been slowed over the past several months. We’ll share more specifics on Gran Turismo 7‘s release date when available.”

While the game was never dated, there was a lot of expectation it would release in the later half, after it was removed from a trailer that showcased the first six months of this year.

Either way, hope all the team at Polyphony and other studios helping make the game, are safe and whenever the game is released, the fact it is leaving behind the esport approach and becoming a more traditional game provides some hope.
