Gran Turismo 7 update should make the game a hell of a lot less grindy
techradar.comGran Turismo 7's latest update is a substantial one, with improved Credit rewards and new race events taking the spotlight. Hopefully, the changes mean racers can purchase those million-Credit hypercars in a much timelier fashion.
