Gran Turismo 7 on PSVR 2 is "Historically Significant", Says Kazunori Yamauchi

The Gran Turismo series has had a lot of milestones over its 25-year history, but the anticipation surrounding Gran Turismo 7's free launch-day support for PSVR 2 is reaching hype levels not seen in quite some time, if ever. Kazunori Yamauchi feels it, too.

"it’s pretty historically significant that a full-spec racing game is now playable in VR"
Project Cars 2 doesn't count?

Neonridr474d ago

or Project Cars 3, or Asetto Corsa, or Dirt Rally. Tons of choices when it comes to VR Racing games.

"It’s the first time in racing game history that we’re able to do this now, so I think that this really is a significant moment."

Sounds like he's referring to Polyphony, after the half-baked attempt to get GT Sport working in VR on PS4.

GT7 is the full thing finally!

Neonridr474d ago

@PureBlood - for sure, it's awesome that we are getting the full package here in VR. No cut corners or compromises.

masterfox474d ago

indeed it is, 4k hdr, oled , ultra fast framerate, best racing game outhere , and literally full GT7 game in VR?, so yes it is an insta-WIN!, and the average consumer is in reach to get all this even thou with the PSVR2 price tag, no need to spend thousands and thousands of dlls to have such an awesome experience like in PC, and also hassle free from configurations.

This game in VR is a great experience.

Petebloodyonion474d ago

I would say that the historical part is Sony finally giving ppl a true AAA VR experience from one of their top franchises and most importantly at launch.
Not a spin-off story
Not a game from the previous generation
Not a side project from an obscure IP

That's a win in my book.

ApocalypseShadow474d ago

Of course. Sony's biggest franchise delivering high fidelity VR to consoles. That's nothing but 💯 win. If they bring other Sony in-house franchises to VR, that's going to be sick.

Start the dreaming. Ape escape, Rachet and Clank, Siren, GOW, Killzone, Resistance.. I mean damn. Sony's got Sony many franchises that it could be amazing to see.

But good on Kaz and team bringing GT7 to the next level. Maybe it'll get other top racers to join the party.

C-H-E-F472d ago

Killzone VR would be amazing. I know alot of people hated it but I loved Shadow Fall. I think it will also allow them to pivot the series as well and reintroduce it to this new gen of gamers.

Cars, and more cars... Yet, they rarely add new locations where we can drive all those cars... smh.

We may get a new track this update. The teaser never hints at anything more than the cars, gotta wait for the trailer to know more.

XDefiant dev promises fix to frustrating hit reg issues, though players remain skeptical

Mark Rubin, XDefiant’s executive producer, responded to an X/Twitter post that fixes to hit reg “are something [they] are working on.” Unfortunately, it’s unclear when it will arrive, as neither Rubin nor the development team have yet to provide an actual time frame.

Ha man what is this the 8th time they are working on this issue?

SO the game is using division one maps/assets with some divison 2 thrown in with that we can say they never really made the maps so what have they been doing for there 6 to perhaps 8 years of dev time? must be alot of hookers/blow/parties.

It's astounding how much money they blow and this is the results. Gaming development is out of control.

just_looken1d 4h ago

Right even when ubisoft cancelled division heartland as a beta player that game was a far better state then they push with this trash of a game that is still in a beta state after 3 years of delay's.

we are so starved of any decent fps/3rd person shooters out there it seems we will take anything even though some ps2 fps games were more fun then this game in my old opinion.

FPS_D3TH1d 13h ago

Skeptical because it was an issue with ALL the betas and still hasn’t been fixed

just_looken1d 4h ago

Its like they are using division one servers but they caught fire then were put together with barry/carols help from the janitors wing or some shit. Three years they still can not make it so the gun goes boom the guy gets hit then damage is applied.
