A Gran Turismo 7 State of Play is coming on Wednesday

Sony has announced that a new State of Play presentation based on Gran Turismo 7 will be shown this week.

The presentation will take place on Wednesday, February 2 at 2pm PT / 5pm ET / 10pm GMT.

According to Sony, the presentation will be solely focused on Gran Turismo 7, and will not feature any other games.

The show will last for just over 30 minutes, and will consist of “new PS5 footage and gameplay details”.

Gran Turismo 7 was originally planned for release last year but was delayed after production was impacted by the coronavirus pandemic.

Polyphony Digital‘s racer will now be released for PS5 and PS4 on March 4, 2022.

A Gran Turismo 7 gameplay video released in December showed off the returning Deep Forest Raceway circuit, which is one of over 90 tracks reportedly set to be included in the title.

More recently, Sony released a Gran Turismo 7 gameplay video showing off the returning Daytona International Speedway, which previously appeared in Gran Turismo 5 and Gran Turismo 6.

The PS5 gameplay video shows a lap of the Daytona track, taken from the cockpit view. It then shows the same lap from the replay view, where the frame rate drops from 60fps to 30fps but the level of detail is increased.
