In a recent interview, Yamauchi said that people will not wait so much on a game that is way too far from being released. He said that since the game is “Gran Turismo,” fans and gamers deserve that it come to them earlier.
Yamauchi’s latest statement about the release date of “Gran Turismo 7” was consistent with his pronouncement sometime in October 2014. He also hinted that it seems pretty clear that the game will come in the next year and a half so it is likely that “Gran Turismo 7” will be released later in 2016, with the latest being early 2017.
It will also not help the cause of “Gran Turismo 7” coming out later than its direct competitor, the “Forza Motorsport 6” being released exclusively on the Xbox One, as it may prompt other gamers to jump to the other racing game title instead of waiting for the PS4 exclusive.
Perusing through the commentaries of avid gamers on the forum site of GT Planet, it is very clear that they want the upcoming car racing video game “Gran Turismo 7” to integrate the best features of previous “Gran Turismo” games with the reported new features to make the game really great.
