As revealed yesterday, Gran Turismo 7’s latest patch is now available on PS5 and PS4. A trio of new vehicles headline this update, of course, but there’s a whole host of other fixes and additions.
The Nissan Silvia K’s Type S (S14) ’94, Porsche Vision Gran Turismo Spyder, and Volkswagen ID.R ’19 can now be added to your Garage. Beyond that, a new Menu Book named The Silvia Sisters has been added, as well as two Extra Menus. These can only be accessed after reaching the game’s ending.
Two new Scapes have been introduced as well, and a bunch of new events are now available in World Circuits. On top of all that is a laundry list of other improvements, fixes, and updates to make the experience that little bit nicer. The Logitech G Pro racing wheel is now supported, online connectivity is improved, and numerous bugs have been squashed.
