Sony has made it clear that more of its first-party games for PlayStation will be released to PC, and that could include “Gran Turismo.” Kazunori Yamauchi, the creator of the racing sim series, confirmed the possibility of the series getting a PC port. But fans should expect some changes.
When asked if a “Gran Turismo” PC port is possible in the future, Yamauchi told GTPlanet, “Yes, I do think so.” But the series creator said it might be difficult to preserve the game’s overall quality as it is on PlayStation.
“There are not many platforms which could run the game in 4K/60p natively, so one way we make that possible is to narrow down the platform,” Yamauchi added. “It’s not a very easy subject, but of course, we are looking into it and considering it.”
Yamauchi’s statement should not come as a surprise. The first PlayStation first-party game to launch on PC was “Horizon Zero Dawn” in 2020. Sony-owned studios have since released other titles on the platform, including “God of War,” “Uncharted 4,” and “Spider-Man,” which were all released on Steam earlier this year.
PlayStation has also confirmed the upcoming PC releases of “The Last of Us Part 1” and “Spider-Man: Miles Morales.” But the list is expected to get longer in the future.
Sony has previously stated its intention to bring more of its games on PC, albeit not at the same release schedule as on console. PlayStation Studios head Hermen Hulst previously said PC gamers may have to wait at least a year from the time PlayStation games are released on the console.
What remains to be seen is if “Gran Turismo 7” will be the game Polyphony Digital will bring to PC. The chance for its PC version to run natively on 4K at 60FPS is not certain, per Yamauchi’s statement. But it is worth noting that all PC ports mentioned above were released with graphics modes that allow them to run at considerably high fidelity and performance settings.
Polyphony Digital recently released an update for “Gran Turismo 7” with additional content to celebrate the franchise’s 25th anniversary. The game gained three cars, including the 2018 BMW M2 Competition, the 1987 Ford Sierra RS 500 Cosworth, and the 1996 Nissan Silvia K’s Aero (S14). The developer also added a new track, the Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta, that stretches for 4,088 meters.
