As spotted by GT Planet, the free booklet distributed at Yodobashi Camera reminds us that the “long-awaited GT Mode” is back, in which “you can enjoy the car life” and “buying, selling, and tuning the cars and racing”. Your garage reportedly permits you to store up to 1000 vehicles, snf players have spotted both the Ferrari F8 and F12 amongst the pamphlet’s images.

As Martin summarised for us a couple of weeks back, Gran Turismo 7 is all about delivering more of a classical Gran Turismo experience, after the more experimental multiplayer-focussed Gran Turismo Sport. It marks the return of a fully-fledged career mode, and customisable and upgradeable cars. It’s due out for both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 on 4th March, 2022.
