Gran Turismo 7’s first post-release update has arrived, introducing fixes for various issues and a couple of new features.
Game update 1.06 (see full patch notes below) delivers fixes for progression blocks and application errors, including “a very rare issue wherein progress made on a Menu Book would not be recognised and prevented players to continue their playthrough”.
In terms of new features, wind direction and wind speed indicators have been added to the race display, while Music Replay has been expanded with 64 new tracks.
Gran Turismo 7 released for PS4 and PS5 worldwide on Friday, excluding Russia, where Sony Interactive Entertainment has halted sales following the country’s invasion of Ukraine.
The game’s s microtransactions went live on the title’s release day, revealing a significant increase in price over those included PS4 predecessor Gran Turismo Sport.
“If you can suffer through the clunky menus, endless dull dialogue and 100 visits to the cafe, then there’s an excellent racing game somewhere hidden in Gran Turismo 7,” according to VGC’s review of the game.
“It’s baffling that the game does its best to impede you from getting to the track, but when you actually get there, there’s a lot of fun to be had.”
