Gran Turismo 7 PS5 PlayStation 5 1

Gran Turismo 7 is so close we can almost taste the gasoline in the air. After a slew of new footage last week, North America’s chief classification board ESRB has now rated the simulation racer for release. Unsurprisingly, it’s an E for Everyone: “The game contains a historical photo that depicts a driver smoking a cigarette. In a picture mode, a sign reads ‘Spirits, Whiskey, Gin, Wine, Beer, Ale, Stouts’.” Won’t someone think of the children?

All of this means that the game is very much on track for its 4th March release date, with development likely to be wrapping up at Polyphony Digital. Of course, this is a service-based title so the work never ends, and if GT Sport is anything to go by, there will be a ton of post-release support planned. Nevertheless, it’s exciting to see the game keep pace with its intended launch target, and we’re really looking forward to getting behind the wheel in the New Year.
