Gran Turismo 7 is bigger than ever with 2 million monthly players

Launching back in 2022, Polyphony Digital’s Gran Turismo 7 has received a ton of post-launch support in the years since, with the racing title adding all sorts from new vehicles to tracks; expanded modes; enemy AI and much more. Thanks to this consistent level of quality output, the team at Polyphony have revealed that GT7 continues to see over 2 million monthly active users – with the figure still growing.

In an interview with Kazunori Yamauchi during the Gran Turismo World Series finals (transcribed by GTPlanet), the series producer revealed that “Gran Turismo 7 has been released for several years, but still, the active users are currently over 2 million people, and the new users are increasing.”

While an impressive figure in its own right, this is especially notable as according to Yamauchi “The status that Gran Turismo 7 is in now is probably the best of any Gran Turismo titles that we’ve had in the past. We’ve never experienced this phenomenon before, and neither has PlayStation.”

As mentioned, Gran Turismo 7 has seen countless updates since the game’s initial launch in 2022, with the title receiving a suite of new tracks, vehicles, modes and the addition of an advanced ‘SophyAI’ rival driver.

Additionally, the game most recently saw its free Spec III update arrive alongside GT7’s first proper paid DLC, adding 50 new races, Sophy AI 3.0 and more.

When it comes to post launch support, Gran Turismo 7 has perhaps been one of the best first-party PlayStation titles in this regard. As such, it is encouraging to know that the game has continued to see new players checking it out. It will be interesting to see how long Polyphony Digital plan to support GT7.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
