Acura NSX Concept Featured in New Gran Turismo Video

Videos January 15th, 2013 by Jordan

If you thought all of the surprises for Gran Turismo fans were over this week, think again! Polyphony Digital has just released another brand-new trailer featuring the Acura NSX Concept, which has just debuted at the 2013 North American International Auto Show in Detroit.

As most will recall, the NSX was also featured in a video from the show last year, which revealed Special Stage Route X to players for the very first time. This video, too, reveals what appears to be several suspiciously impressive new landscapes and locations…

There is still no information, however, as to if or when the NSX Concept will be available to players in Gran Turismo 5.

    I think that the NSX and all the new tracks are almost Ready … PD don’t need to wait 2 or more years to update everything on GT6 … it is coming on GT5 soon.

    Very interesting this Sport Hybrid-All Wheel Drive technology. Maybe its hard for GT developers to encode it just for one particular car, or there’s development hell for the car, which is why this has gone on for a year.

    Will there be a Honda version too?

      I think that Honda will sell the new NSX as Acura to appeal to the car buyers in the higher market. Mostly from USA & Europe with a 6 digit price tag.

    That is not GT5 code producing these images. Anyone who has played alot of GT5 knows that these videos are superior to what GT5 looks like. We are looking at NEW GT6 code here and NEW tracks for GT6. Well done Polyphony Digital these trailers look absolutely stunning !!!!

      Quite bold of you. Can you cite anything to support your claim?

      Yes, fordskydog, we don´t even have a teaser trailer, why should PD give us more detailed info on the things that were going to be in the game?

    When can I have this car. Looks better inside and outside than Vette. Why was another video made again… without adding the NSX to GT5?

      I guess cause the prototype isn’t final yet. If look from the previous video to this video you’ll notice they now have the interior as last video didn’t. And the rims have been changed. My guess is they want to wait until its final or save it for GT6.

    I think there are waiting for the car to come out so they can see the interior and make it premium

      Or PDI could contact Honda headquarters and ask them to see the real prototype…

    If all manufactures did this with GT5, there will be new game buyers and some really happy GT gamers!

      Yeah, too bad some companies choose to present their products in games where criminal activities are just. (ahem, Porsche)

    You can release all the trailers you want there’s one small problem with your enthusiasm hear? There’s no car in the game!! (this is the 2nd trailer) YARN!!!

    We had 4 concepts for the 86 before we got it. It’s coming soon.

    Could be starting off the 2013 year right. Or maybe subtle hints of GT6. I think GT6 would be the appropriate place for all of the old tracks revamped, adding in more day/night and weather tracks and premiums. They need a selling point for their next game, not a bad idea.

      What would show off GT6 would be a quick video that shows 30+ GT5 premium cars on one course, that would be a great lead into GT6. Anyway who knows about these tracks and I doubt that GT6 will make PS4/Orbis debut, so perhaps there is one more update in store for GT5 but since GT channel was closed at the end of last year can only spell slow times for GT5 and ramp up for GT6. So the only way I see GT6 coming out anywhere near PS4 release is everything that we see now are all part of GT6, all the found things by Sorg are all a part of GT6 and GT5 is like a huge GT6 prologue. All the added courses, cars, missing tuning options these things can most certainly be part of a completely revised engine just for GT6. Kaz has said that GT5 is the ground work for GT6 so one can only hope that they attack the problems in GT5 and pound them out for GT6.

      I don’t know if it will be PS4. If it is then it will be very similar graphics, more polygons and high AA, shadows and AF. They would do another engine revamp for Gran Turismo 7. I’m not worried if it’s on PS3, it already looks beautiful so more tracks, premiums and features are greatly welcomed. But with next-gens highly likely to be debuting this year, I don’t doubt that GT6 will be a PS4 launch title. That will be good for Sony and Polophony. Now I know a lot of people won’t make the switch yet but a bundle could guarantee probably a million sales. I see games still being developed for current consoles for about 3-5 more years after next gens come out. It’s highly likely also that Call of Duty will have some PS3/Xbox 360 ports because so many people will not switch yet. It would be counter-productive for mass AAA titles Like Battlefield and Call of Duty and the like to not port down to current gen. Next-gen is really exciting, I’m so ready for DirectX 11 lighting, native 1080p @ 60FPS and so on.

      Goooood points aronh17. How ’bout a multi-platform release for PS3, PS4 and Vita?

    • January 15th, 2013 at 11:36 pm - #

      I could see a Vita port, idk if GT6 would be ported to PS3 after being released on PS4 if it does. GT5 is their benchmark for PS3. They’ve pushed the graphics, physics and special effects to the max. Lights beaming and coloring smoke and dirt, dynamic smoke and not to mention the game runs like native 1280×1080 when your PS3 is set to 1080p with 2xMSAA which is outstanding. No need for GT6 on PS3 if it’s on PS4 to my opinion. Anybody that’s a big fan of the series will most likely switch to PS4 for GT6 anyways to me. I think I would, but I’m still going to wait it out until all the bugs are ironed out and maybe until a slim release.

      If GT6 is released on PS4 there will be no port for PS3. Sony uses ‘PS only’ games to sell their consoles. Making a port for PS3 would mean more people would stick to their PS3s, which is of course not what Sony wants.

      Daytona Road Course in weather/day night cycle, please. I hve wanted to run Rolex 24hr there since i saw it. Other tracks that host long day/night races areset up that way. Daytona deserves it too, I think.a

      +1,000,000 for the Rolex 24, I also want proper run off in turn 1 and us to run the GT bus stop, not the motorcycle one that isn’t even there anymore!

    I’m not entirely sure that’s Seattle Circuit, but it could be. Apricot Hill is highly unlikely since there is a lot of tracks that have a similar scenery.

    Remember that we’ve seen El Capitan before and it never got into the game.

    Must be a new Concept Car pack. The Corvette and the NSX. Hopefully there will be new tracks which is what I care for the most.

      The Vette isn’t a concept; it’s coming out soon.

      Well, technically it’s not a production model yet.

    • January 15th, 2013 at 2:03 pm - #
      HuskyGT

      Well, it’s more like a pre-production model. Probably the real production model will look and work exactly the same.
