GT6_Lotus_97T_03

Polyphony Digital has announced an online service maintenance period for Gran Turismo 6, expected to begin on Friday, May 30th, at 04:00 GMT/UTC (click here to convert that to your local time).

1lU0iduAlthough online service maintenance does not guarantee a game update will be released, this is widely expected to be the case after we learned the highly anticipated Ayrton Senna Tribute content for GT6 was set for release in the later part of this week.

As reported in our forums, several Brazilian media outlets have already had their hands on the new Senna content, sharing brief gameplay videos and screenshots.

GTPlanet user devilracer1987 has also discovered two new GT6 PSN Trophies have been added which relate to the new content:

  • Hero’s Trophy: Complete all the Ayrton Senna Tribute events.
  • Senna Master: Get a gold award in every Ayrton Senna Trubute event.

Stay tuned for more details!

    Why don’t you guys go ahead and give us Imola too to complete the Senna Package off right? Actually send us Interlagos & Imola &

    Well I hope it’s the real deal this time. You know I can’t help but think all this could have been avoided if pd had just released it to the countries that had the licensing and the other countries would have to wait a “little longer”. Global release is noble but not at the expense of alienating all ur fans. Of course I’m assuming it was some little postage stamp size countries that the licensing was suspect… But If it was America that had the licensing issues forget everything I said above and you bastards can wait! JK! Also I can’t say for sure but I don’t think this is an f1 license issue. if it was… then we should be seeing a hell of a lot more f1 cars then senna’s coming our way! That’s the whole reason their is only a pd f1 and 2 Ferrari’s (ferrari has its own licenses separate from f1)

    PD kept their word on the update. They said it would be May and here it is, and when there was trouble and it could be out on the announced date they let us all know and resolved the problem as quick as they could. I’m not about to fault PD for the licensing troubles, and mean we are working with an F1 license here, I’m not surprised they gave us trouble!

    Well done PD, thumbs up all around! This is the quality of content and communication we hope to see on atleast a monthly basis!

      It’s currently showing a Gucci purse on my page, and unfortunately my lady is gawking at it…. The true price of playing GT6.

    Senna Content Expected???? OMG!!! YAY! more teaser pictures!!! :) …and the downloadable stuff will come some time late 2015 cant wait!

    So no actual racing then? Pretty sure Senna was a RACING DRIVER. Not a Time-Trialer, or a Hot-Lapper.

    Thumbs down.

    Does this mean midnight tonight? I always get so confused about whether 12 AM belongs to the day before or the day after.

    If it is tonight, I’ll be staying up late to play with my new toys.

      If you’re on the East coast of the U.S. (EDT), then yes, it’s coming at midnight. 12:00AM is the first minute of the “new day”.

    This is the first time I will ever be outright buying an expensive Cr car, the Lotus, before trying any of the content, I need to get this on the Nurburgring right away.

    1. RACECAR

      You realize this is going to be free, right? You’ll get the cars by winning the challenges, or from buying them in the dealership (One of which for only a measely 3,000,000 credits).

    I’m not watching those gameplay videos! I want my first experience of the sound and feel to be when my hands are on the wheel. Mega excited

    1. RACECAR

      Lucky for you, the gameplay videos have nothing but talking so you hardly are hearing anything from the game really.
