GT5 Preview in Next Month’s Official PlayStation Magazine
June 9th, 2009 by Jordan
Not long after the dust settled at E3, people started to ask when we could expect the next batch of news from Yamauchi and his team at Polyphony Digital. It didn’t take much time to find out: the PlayStation Official Magazine is expected to preview Gran Turismo 5 in next month’s issue. Of course, there are no guarantees as to what this “preview” will contain – indeed, it may simply be a re-hashing of what we already learned at E3. With that said, it makes sense for Sony to drive “official” magazine sales by using its own media property to announce new information. Keep a close eye on those newsstands!

I saw this get mentioned somewhere aswell. Is this to be the July Issue thats already out at the moment here in the UK or is this the August Issue which gets released in July? Sorry bit confused. The July Issue here at the moment has a Preview of COD Modern Warfare 2 and Fifa 10 Etc but I didnt see any mention of the Front Gold cover of GT5 at all? If someone could clear this up for me i’d be greatly appreciated :)

@Marky: I’m not sure about which specific issue will include the preview. It’s not the new issue that is just now hitting store shelves, though – it’s the next one.
@tsuchiya: Nobody knows if Porsche or Lamborghini will be in the game at this point.

What are the chances of a GT (PSP) preview?
June 10th, 2009 at 5:07 am
It’s nice to have something to look out for in terms of +-30days..
and not having to wait months till something new pops up!
June 10th, 2009 at 5:19 am
They are really taking this very carefully. Releasing its own material on its parent magazine. Smart move!
June 10th, 2009 at 10:27 am
Can’t wait to get more information about this game!!! :P I hope the preview offers a lot of details we don’t know yet. What about a more specific releasedate?
June 10th, 2009 at 12:19 pm
for all us GT fans….better mention a release date
June 10th, 2009 at 1:52 pm
Don´t count on a release date anytime before October, and PD would never announce it in a magazine but rather at an event, now which one is the question!
But atleast we will get some deeper info in OPM i hope!
June 10th, 2009 at 2:33 pm
A 2009 release is a cast iron lock.
I think that’s clear.
June 11th, 2009 at 12:36 pm
kaz said to that guy who got to visit PD studios, that it will be released sooner then you think, and we will do it as a surprise so its gana be announced in the next month
June 11th, 2009 at 4:24 pm
I´m only interested in the RELEASE DATE.
2010 is too late, summer 2009 would be nice.
June 11th, 2009 at 6:49 pm
Release date – 25/09/2009, Two online shop sites have this as the release date
June 13th, 2009 at 4:40 am
playstation magazine also confirms a TBC 2009 date as well.EB games has also updated the GT5 page with a pic of the GT5 Box artwork its gana be announced in next month PS mag. I just checked the Australian mag, and they are featuring a spred of GT5 so next month we will know whats it gana have and when we are gana get it, start your Pre ordering Guys
June 13th, 2009 at 4:41 am
26th june the mag will be out in retail, so subscriptions will be 2 weeks B4 that maybe
June 13th, 2009 at 6:03 am
Alan that release date is pure b.u.l.l.s.h.i.t.
GT5 can’t come out before gt mobile and online shops DON’T KNOW when the game will be released. They just NEED to put something, understood?
June 13th, 2009 at 12:21 pm
no im a subscriber to uk opm and always get it early buy it never two weeks b4 official date in shops, normally a week before u can get it in shops
June 13th, 2009 at 1:14 pm
How many times I have to say that GT5 will be released 25.9.2009? The information that I have are 100% right. I look forward to as much as you do and i have no reason to lie.
June 14th, 2009 at 12:51 pm
who is your source? I think you could be correct & its a real possibility
June 14th, 2009 at 2:47 pm
My source is a man who works as a software engineer in a software company that makes part of the game engine for PD. Now get ready for the GT test. Testing should be completed by 18.7.09, the game could be released 25.9.2009.
June 14th, 2009 at 3:25 pm
Thankyou for telling us this. Do you know if OPM is one of the testers? Plus what software company is he working for?
June 15th, 2009 at 6:50 am
can anyone source their claims? where the hell has a release date 25-09-09 come from?
June 26th, 2009 at 11:34 am
Of course, there are no guarantees as to what this “preview” will contain – indeed, it may simply be a re-hashing of what we already learned at E3. – YOU GOT THAT RIGHT!
