Kazunori Yamauchi, the leader of Polyphony Digital, has revealed that Gran Turismo 7 is achieving significant commercial success. The developer noted that the strong sales performance has surprised the studio, as they did not anticipate such high figures at the time of the game's initial launch.
The title, which debuted in March 2022, is approaching its five-year anniversary. The studio attributes its ongoing commitment to providing frequent updates and new game modes to the title's active player base, which continues to grow despite the time elapsed since its release.
To maintain this momentum, the developer announced the Gran Turismo 7 Spec 4 update. This content release is split into two parts, with the first scheduled for October and the second arriving in December, ensuring a steady stream of new features for the community.
The game has consistently received support through various additions, including free updates that celebrate events like the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Recent expansions have also introduced new vehicles to the game's roster, further incentivizing both existing players and new purchasers.
