![]() ![]() The places you’ll visit the most, especially earlier on in the game before you unlock anything else, are the World Circuit and Café. More places will open up and be accessible as you progress through the game, including Scapes, Livery Editor and more. These include the Café, the License Center, Tuning Shop, Garage, and more. In the GT Simulation Mode single-player campaign, you’ll get access to the World Map, which is a hub where you can access different locations for various purposes. Gran Turismo 7 is obviously a racing game, but what do you actually do? Well, Gran Turismo 7 doesn’t feature the open-world system of games like Forza Horizon 5 or the Need For Speed titles. You have to race more meticulously, and not just press the accelerate button. That said, with assists on, I had a much easier time than I expected, though the game is still pretty difficult for casual racing fans. My point is this there’s a steeper learning curve to this game that’s not in other more arcadey racing games. Sure, Gran Turismo 7 has a bunch of extensive assist mechanics in the options menu that you can turn on, but ultimately, you still need to get good to win, usually. You can’t just get a faster car and speed your way to victory by pressing the accelerate button. Hardcore sim racing fans may think it’s dumb of me to point this out, but many casual gamers may not realise just how different sim racing games play in comparison to arcade racers. It’s closer to the annual F1 titles ( a couple of which I previously reviewed) compared to say, arcade racing franchises like Need For Speed, Burnout or Forza Horizon. The most important I should point out is that Gran Turismo 7 is a racing simulator, first and foremost. So, if you’ve never played a Gran Turismo title or if you don’t really play racing games in general, should you get Gran Turismo 7? I’ll be answering that in my review. Still, the reality is that there’ll be just as many casual gamers interested in Gran Turismo 7 as hardcore fans, but this review will be prioritising more on the perspective of the former. They’re not my forte in any way and the last Gran Turismo title I previously was Gran Turismo 4 for the PS2 (so you’ll know where I’m coming from). 2017’s Gran Turismo Sport was a worthy multiplayer-focused experiment by Polyphony Digital, but fans of the series have been waiting for a more traditional Gran Turismo experience, and Gran Turismo 7 definitely delivers on that.įor full transparency, I would like to clarify that I played and reviewed Gran Turismo 7 as a casual fan of racing games. It’s been almost a decade since the last mainline title in the franchise, Gran Turismo 6 for the PS3 in 2013, but the “real driving simulator” is finally back.
