Gran Turismo Sport Release Delayed

As we have become accustomed to game release delays, it might not come as a surprise that the newest iteration of the Gran Turismo franchise suffers the same fate.

Sony and Polyphony Digital have officially announced that the release of their upcoming Gran Turismo Sport title for the PlayStation 4 will not meet its November 2016 deadline. In order to make GT Sport the best Gran Turismo version to date, the game is now scheduled for a 2017 release with no exact date yet given.

 

Aug 30, 2016 // Founder of Polyphony Digital, Creator of Gran Turismo Kazunori Yamauchi said: Hello GT community. I want to share the news that we have made the difficult decision to delay the release of Gran Turismo Sport to 2017. GT Sport is Polyphony‘s foremost competitive gaming title, with high expectations from both the fans and from within our team.

 

From the start, the title has been one of our most ambitious undertakings, using the latest technologies, such as physics-based rendering and sound simulations, and Scapes photo mode. In combining these features with a new Sport mode, we are offering a competitive gaming experience to truly reinvent what it means to be a racing game. We’ve been excited and humbled by the response each time we’ve shared new gameplay with everyone.

 

However, as we approach our planned release date in November, we realise we need more time to perfect GT Sport, to which we’ve already dedicated so much effort to since announcing the title, and do not want to compromise the experience. While we cannot confirm a new release date at this time, we are more committed than ever to making GT Sport the best Gran Turismo game to date.

 

GT Sport will continue to be shown at several gaming events around the world. I hope everyone has the opportunity to experience first-hand the yet-to-be revealed cutting edge experiences that will be achieved by GT Sport. Thank you for all your continued support.
