I think the next GT game may be Sport 2. They'll treat it and GT7 like FM and FH, both getting updates.

How's finding the link to your claim that Kaz said he wants GT7 to last longer than other GT's coming along? Or are you just going to ignore the question like the first time you made the claim?
 
As much as I am not on the "GT8 is coming soon" Hype train, can't be that hard to pull up a link that proves someone said something.
 
30th anniversary is 2027. They are more likely to release GT8 to mark that point than they are to do a Spec B update for GT7.

I think it's pretty obvious that the influx of lower-tier vehicles in recent updates are being built up for a greatly expanded career mode in a hypothetical GT8, and that there's zero reason to make a Sport 2 when the entire fanbase that arrived with Sport is currently leaving in droves.

GT8 is not coming anytime soon, Kaz literally confirmed that he wants to keep GT7 alive for longer than previous games.

Rumours and innuendo, and since @Famine did not take this "bait" I will not...

That is a good point, didn't even think about that. Could be a possibility. But again it's PD's decision on when gt8 is officially released. All we can do is continue to enjoy gt7 and it's cars/tracks. And of course sport mode events and GTWS series.

I mean we cooouuuld, but that's boring. So interesting to read what the Doom Patrol post in these threads.

I mean, the game is very good in some parts but in some, like the Hagerty car prices and the used/legend cars cycles, I can't get some cars because of the real-life price tags.
 
Well see it wouldn't be that boring to me, because I didn't originally start playing gt7 until November 1, 2022. PD needs to add some more missions. But I know it'd be like pulling teeth to get them to do that for me. But some cars are way too expensive for people to buy, they would have to grind at least 100 hours of game time to rack up loads of credits/money.

Gt8 will be releasing end of 2027 / beggining of 2028.
Thats my guess.

So ps6 lunch title? Mmmm i do not think so. To me holiday 2026 or march 2027. Oooooor late 2028/beginning of 2029. I do not see GT as a lunch title.
 


Not a car post, but it is a post relating to the previous update's new content.
Was this an indication of the next update not being too far off? e.g. early June?

To be fair, link or not, "lasting longer" is a relative term. Given that there have been plenty of announcements that the PS4 is ending production, and given that I can't find any for sale on PlayStation Direct:

https://direct.playstation.com/en-us

Then there is this article about PS4 support coming to an end this year:

https://9meters.com/technology/consoles/how-long-will-sony-support-the-ps4-console

With GT7 being the only cross console title, and it already being in it's 4th year, and PS4 support ending, signs point to GT8 coming sooner rather than later. Let's face it, the pandemic is largely to blame for GT7 taking extra time (and probably why it's cross console).

I can't see GT7 getting patched on PS4 while support is ending, and they won't patch the PS5 version and abandon the PS4 version. What I can see is a transition period where the game gets content but no technical changes while they prepare for a GT8 launch.

The prizes from the live event viewers campaign will be handed out after the next update, and the entry period runs until June 23rd, so no update before that.

Yeah, the best time to launch a new GT game is around dinner, you can enjoy eating and racing at the same time, xD.

I think PD will give an official date sometime next year with a gt8 trailer of what's gonna be featured in the game.

I wonder how long this generation will last given the current trends, there's just no way to provide a substantial upgrade in PS6 in 2027 with a decent mass market price of 400-500 bucks. PS5 Pro is a joke and expensive as hell for a meager 40% power boost but that's not entirely Sony's fault I think, just the way things are right now. I would be fine with a 2030 release for PS6, there's really no reason to do it earlier than that, barely any games that take advantage of PS5 as it is.

Ps5 has been completely underwhelming so far. It’s been the generation of remasters

Ironically Xbox studios' output has been pretty good this generation but it's too late to change the tide of console wars. Sony is kinda doing nothing and enjoying high sales regardless.
