Gran Turismo 5 DLC Hits One Million Downloads in Two Weeks

Gran Turismo 5 Interviews November 21st, 2011 by Jordan

In an interview at the GT Awards party, U.S. Gran Turismo producer Taku Imasaki shared an interesting statistic about the game’s recent batch of new content, which included Spa Francorchamps and 15 new cars. As of November 3rd, two weeks and two days since its European release, it had received over 1 million downloads.

Taku remained coy about confirming plans for future DLC packs, though European Sony representatives have already mentioned “many batches” of new content is in the works for GT5, which Kazunori Yamauchi also confirmed would be released approximately every two months.

    The reason it sold so much is simple. Everyone was wishing they could get Forza 4, but since they have ps3′s the dlc was the best they could do.

    I own PS3′s, and this is true for me. I think Forza 4 looks insane, and I was looking for something to help me from going out and buying a xbox 360 for one game. Sadly, for me the dlc wasnt even close to doing the trick. Too many Nissan GTR’s. Wheres all the new cars, standard to premiums, and new tracks??

      what? Do you want ot pay 11€ every two month?

    11€ for a DLC is too much, when they will offer them every 2 month. And I will not see an entire japanese car in future DLCs.

    Funny in the interview he is saying Kaz doesn’t like micro transactions and there for he was not A enthusiast for DLC. I guess with the Announcement that future DLC will come every two months. Kaz has Seen that millions of micro transactions equals big money.

    There for I hope they will bring out some good DLG in the future, Tracks and Cars worth spending our money on such as new super cars and GT racing cars

    PD rules. GT5 has been the best videogame investment of all time for me. I’ve spent hundreds, probably thousands of hours in it.

    I agree please bring the Ariel Atom 3 Supercharged.

    I’m from a country where PS Store is not available. So I cannot download updates. I can still buy updates on disks … if available.
