Gran Turismo is one of the greatest racing simulation video game series of all time. You can be sure of supreme graphics, expertly manufactured gameplay, and realistic-looking cars when playing this series. For fans of the series, you will be excited to know that the new Gran Turismo 7 update is now available, and it features quite a hamper of goodies too. Check out the update trailer for EA’s primary racing series below for a better look.
The latest Gran Turismo 7 update takes the game to version 1.27, and there is a lot to take in. The biggest feature included in this whopping 1.3GB patch is the addition of five new cars which include the Alfa Romeo Giulia GTAm ’20, Bugatti Chiron ’16, Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray ’20, Toyota Celica GT-FOUR Rally Car (ST205) ’95 and Ferrari Vision Gran Turismo. That’s quite the selection of epic cars so be sure to check them all out.
But it’s not just vehicles that this new patch is including because there is the addition of two new post-game Extra Menus to complete, which asks players to take part in a couple of challenges. Now, there aren’t any new circuits in this update, but instead, there are a few new events that have been added for already existing tracks. A cool new addition to the ‘Scapes’ is Norway as the new Curation, which looks pretty fricking awesome as well – what else would we expect with this game’s graphics?
