Gran Turismo 7 to get free PSVR2 update at launch

Gran Turismo 7 is an impressive PlayStation console exclusive for a number of reasons. Not only is the game rich with content, but it is also a tech showpiece, taking advantage of all the various PS5 hardware and software features. In an exciting announcement, it has been revealed that come the launch of Sony’s PSVR2 headset in late February Gran Turismo 7 will get a free update to support the next-gen VR headset.

Making the announcement at CES, Sony revealed that the popular and recently released racing simulator Gran Turismo 7 will be getting a free update to support the PlayStation VR2 headset come its launch on the 22nd of February.

While details are currently rather light, from the gameplay shared we already know that this release will be much more fully-featured than previous efforts.

Back with the original PlayStation VR, Sony released a VR mode for the then-latest GT Sport. While a decent mode, it was much more static than the main game, lacking any AI racers while seeing a great deal of other compromises.

Again, while we do not know just how much of GT7 will be playable in VR, it will certainly be more than the previous attempt, with the gameplay shared showing that the VR mode will include dynamic time of day and weather as well as a full set of opponents to race. Hopefully we will hear more about this update closer to the launch of PSVR2.
