Polyphony Digital has always pushed the boundaries of what’s possible with PlayStation hardware, and so it’s no surprise to see it go all-in with PS5 Pro. While Gran Turismo 7’s main improvements for Sony’s supercharged hardware will include the implementation of PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) and raytracing during gameplay, the Japanese dev is also experimenting with an 8K, 60fps mode.
“Players will be able to see the precisely modelled cars and tracks in unprecedented detail and clarity, with a breath-taking sense of presence,” main programmer Shuichi Takano explained on the PS Blog. “Thanks to these cutting-edge developments, Gran Turismo 7 will be able to provide more exciting and visually stunning race experiences than was previously possible.”

Do you have an 8K panel in your setup? Will you be racing the Nürburgring in glorious 8K clarity? Inspect every pixel in the comments section below.
