With an excellent 87/100 MetacriticGran Turismo 7 seems to deserve its place as an indispensable racing game. The critically acclaimed re-release of Polyphony Digital has made its mark, offering a fun and relatively classic experience while demonstrating its love for the motoring world through a wealth of educational and documentary content. Its only drawback? Due to Gran Turismo 7’s lack of ambition on the part of the game, the multi-generational edition has remained limited by the PS4’s technical specs. IGN Gives him a score of 90/100: “Blending the consistent format of GT gaming with GT Sport’s stoic focus on competitive online multiplayer, Gran Turismo 7 makes a few mistakes but remains a platform-worthy performance for developer Polyphony Digital.” destructivethe respected American magazine gives it a fantastic 85/100 value:”Gran Turismo 7 isn’t a complete overhaul of the racing game’s formula, but it doesn’t have to be.”

Gran Turismo 7 State of Play

Gran Turismo 7 brings great technological innovations. Developed by Polyphony Digital, this new title shows us the exact work on car models down to the smallest detail. We also find mention of Ray-Tracing technology, which will provide a more realistic light to players with Playstation 5. It will be available in the game’s Replay mode and in Garage, the console’s performance does not allow it to do justice to justice. High framerates in the game and with ray tracing. It is indeed the most greedy graphics technology among recent innovations.

Whoever says racing game also says changing landscapes and dynamic weather. Gran Turismo 7 will not fish in this aspect because it will provide fully progressive weather effects, in order to immerse players in the advanced paths, where we can see the gradual formation of ponds for example. Sony has even talked about the effect the temperature and humidity of the air have on driving, to please fans of ultra-realistic simulation. Add to that the haptic responses of the PS5 consoles and you get a more realistic-than-life driving experience, if we are to believe the words of the Japanese giant.

Finally, the state of play focused on the “world map”, which is a menu feature that represents the entire world of Gran Turismo 7 and provides the player with an opportunity to move between the various activities available. Among them is the Museum, which will collect information and interactive content on the history of the various big names in motorsport, giving the opportunity for car and history buffs to satiate their thirst for knowledge. Alongside this, we will also find the café, a place where you can meet some of the most prominent personalities in the automotive world, for an immersive introduction to this prolific world.
