Gran Turismo 7โs anticipated โ and, at least in previews, acclaimed โ free PSVR2 update will release worldwide on 21st February, a day before the headset itself. Series creator Polyphony Digital revealed that update 1.29 will begin rolling out from next Tuesday, giving you ample time to download and install it ahead of the peripheralโs worldwide release.
โGT7 takes full advantage of PSVR2โs next-gen features,โ a blog post reads. โUtilising specially optimised HDR tone mapping, as well as foveated rendering from the eye-tracking feature (a technology that renders areas of the screen that the player is directly looking at in high definition), and dynamic 3D audio support, players will experience a whole new dimension of highly immersive gameplay.โ
The post goes on to detail the features of the PSVR2 update, which include the ability to play the entire game in virtual reality, as well as the newly added VR Showroom. The latter, for those who havenโt been keeping up, will allow you to observe your entire fleet of vehicles in intricate, up-close detail.
You can check out some new screenshots through the link, and refer to our list of All PSVR2 Launch Games through the link.

Can not wait. I want to hibernate for the next week
Need to download this again ready for launch. Cant wait this is going to be amazing ๐๐๐
Hopefully will become better than a Sunday driver in vr
Getting so close now, I got my reminder email that they'll process my order soon, yesterday! IIRC from the Edge, they email that about a week or so before they actually ship, and charge it a few days after the email. Getting closer!!
This is going to be incredible even without a wheel but that's going on the shopping list for later
The is no better way to play a driving game than in VR. As far as I'm concerned this is a system seller.
I canโt wait to try this. Driveclub VR was one of my favourite PlayStation VR games and this is going to blow it out of the water.
@riceNpea
I struggle to think of any game thatโs not better in VR. Driving and flight are obvious, but AB Rescue Mission is the best platformer ever made and seeing in 3D makes jump placement far easier and more intuitive. Horror is by far scarier. Exploration more wonderful. Shooting far better. Really struggling to thank of anything thatโs not better in VR.
Maybe fighting games?
Best thing that will happen for me this year for sure. I can't remember what makes me more excited than GT7 in VR.
Except for the birth of my son and the marriage to my wife, of course.
A game that would have sold the PSVR2 for me if it was announced a few months before Christmas.
1.29... What a weird version number to unlock a complete new experience (on a new device). v2.0 would have been a better fit.
I think psvr2 will be game changing
(Excuse the pun lol),well that's quite obvious now anyway,imagine alien isolation in vr ,that game is damn fantastic in normal mode ,bur in vr everyone that tried alien isolation in vr if it ever gets a vr update, several extra pairs of pants to the party would need to be bought lol
When I got my PC VR headset I played Dirt (and Elite Dangerous) non stop.
As a Motorsport/Automobile fan, VR is a childhood dream come true. Racing games alone makes the investment worth it for me.
@Agramonte I agree. Imo, if you want to impress someone with a VR expierience you should show them a racing game of some description. GT7 should have been announce alot sooner than it was (they would have known months ago it was being worked on) and really have had alot more PR than its got this close to launch. This game alone would have shifted VR2 units.
@Agramonte totally agree, although it was very blurry, I had a lot of fun with Driveclub VR back on PSVR. With GT7 driving around real world tracks and those Tokyo Expressway courses I've been playing since the PS1 will be a dream come true and even better because it won't be a blurry mess
So if the headset accidentally comes a day early for whatever reason then youโll have something to do
I purchased GT7 last week just because it will be available to play in PSVR2. I had never really loved-loved a racing game before, even in VR (Wipeout is fun, but I wanted real cars), but GT7 is just amazing, and I'm hooked even before the new headset ships. I'm also considering a steering wheel-and-pedals add-on because I'm enjoying it so much using the controller to steer and expect to play the game for a long time. Amazing graphics, responsive gameplay, and an addictive collecting and upgrade loop: it will be astonishing in VR.
It is time to delete most of my games and download the VR games ready for launch lol
I am hyped for this one. I am expecting a truly mindblowing experience
@thefourfoldroot1 "Maybe fighting games?"
Never played Teleroboxer on Virtual Boy, huh?
@NEStalgia
Lol, no, in a time before internet, I never even new Virtual Boy existed until after it was dead. Plus it never released in Europe at all.
@thefourfoldroot1 never knew what you missed. Bet you're seeing red
I did love my virtual boy though ๐
Donโt think Iโve ever been this excited for a computer game related release.
To anyone lucky enough to be able to afford it, enjoy.
Better not be a big file size the games already over 100 GB don't want to have to have a bunch of space taken up by a vr mode that I can't use
8 DAYS TO GO!!!!
The hype is strong with this one!
@carlos82 @Kidfunkadelic83
Yeah. Next on my wish list is F1 and a New Ace Combat with story campaign VR support. Or a story driven space shooter like CHORUS
I get people want action games like ALYX/Horizon. But VR is so amazing to fully place you in a cockpit.
@Agramonte that would be amazing. No mans sky ahould be pretty awsome but im not in to all that base building stuff. Elite dangerous would look amazing in VR. I think games with speed are well suited to VR. Yes, F1 would be amaaaaazing ๐. I wish Sony has ported over wipeout for launch too.
