Following the release of update 1.07 of Gran Turismo 7, the servers have been taken offline, and today Polyphony Digital has explained the reason.
The message comes signed directly by producer Kazunori Yamauchi, who apologized for the outage and promised a fix in update 1.08.
Yamauchi-san also acknowledged the changes made to event rewards, explained the reasoning and promised information on “update plans for additional content, additional race events and additional features that will constructively resolve this.”
Gran Turismo 7 is currently available for PS5 and PS4 and you can read our review.
You can also take a look at the editions available to plan your pre-order, a gameplay video focusing on the return of the Deep Forest Raceway track, another showing Daytona, the new Porsche Vision Gran Turismo, videos dedicated to the music, and another trailer from a few weeks ago.
We also saw a series of featurettes started a few months ago in which Yamauchi-san himself talked about car culture in general, one on collecting cars, one on racing, one on liveries, one on the Scapes photo mode, one featuring tuning, and one on the power of PS5.
