Speaking of licencing. When I boot up Super Woden GP II it says

Meanwhile the title car is clearly a McLaren F1 and all cars in the game are clearly real cars, but with different names.

It’s probably way too late for PD, but if they were to remaster past games(leave out track licencing just for the sake of talking about the cars only), could they get away with just renaming cars and adding fake sponsors?

The risk that this is associated with that is getting manufacturers angry, risking future relationships and making licensing harder than it is today for PD. Hence this can work in small indie games, but not in the franchise as big as GT is.

PS Highly recommend Super Wooden GP II, great game!

This, and also while they're really obvious what they're based off of, SWGP2 will still have modified the cars just enough to be able to claim it's not the real thing. Basically the same thing PD did with the F1500 to say it's not a Lotus 97T.
 
Hmm, however, PD are “getting away” with making cars in GT7 look like the real race cars and all it takes are for players to add the deals. No doubt that’s different to actually adding a Nissan Primera 2.0 Te from the first Grand Turismo and changing the grille and badge. Still, PD have been working around getting full on licencing for race cars by just adding the parts to upgrade cars as such. I don’t know if that still involves getting licencing for those parts. Maybe it does if it’s an official Audi GT3 EVO rear wing or current Aston Martin GT3 front splitter or a DTM wing for the E30 M3. Though those parts aren’t given names from their respective designers/manufacturers.

Still drives me batty how PD made a pseudo Super Taikyu Crown. They know about the GreenBrave car and it’s such an awful tease. Just wish they’d have put the real car in the game.

Definitely. I mentioned how there's also the "Calsonic" R32 Group A replica sans decals, in the Fuji Clubman+ race. PD saw fit to even do the massive negative camber on the front wheels.

We have just got Xiaomi and PD cooperation revealed with SU7 and Xiaomi vision GT being added specifically to GT7 in the future…

This means that GT8 isn’t anywhere close. PD is aming for long term support for GT7

The announcement of a partnership absolutely does not mean that there will be no announcements in the coming months for GT8!! Look back at GT Sport, the Jaguar VGT appeared in November 2019. Regular updates to the game stopped in May 2020 (6 months later).
 
Delete please. I screwed myself over. And by that I mean real badly. Request: Please delete this mess. I don't want a ruckus to start all over the thread. Please.

Please take this with a whole Ocean of salt but when I searched for GT8 leaks, someone posted this. I have NO idea if this is true. I just wanted to share this. If this is true, then Polyphony is in a really bad state.

One hell of a YT channel…

Worth checking out the other videos…
Great thumbnails too.

I call BS on all of this.

I'm not buying this at all. It sounds like news from 15 years ago during the development of GT5. I think PD have sorted things out when it comes to working with old and new code.

A GT remaster would be hated by nearly everyone. There are so many extras that would be missing, it's pointless.

It's also just about impossible. You NEVER see remasters/remakes of racing games because of all the licensing that goes into it. Once the license is up for the various manufacturers, they would need to repurchase ALL of them, which in many cases is damn near impossible. You will NEVER see a Gran Turismo remaster, for this reason. The astronomical number of licenses they would have to shell out money for (if they could even get them in the first place as some no longer exist or have changed hands) negates the entire reason for putting out a remake. They wouldn't make any money on it.

It'll be interesting to see how long it will take for the Xiaomi SU7 to actually be added to the game, and how far along in the approximate 9 month development time cars take it is at the time of announcement.

If it was only first scanned when Kaz got to drive it, it shouldn't arrive until Spring next year, so I assume it must've been scanned significantly beforehand because you wouldn't announce it if it was so far off.
They didn't use it in a race, and no in-game model of the car was shown in reveal/trailer footage, so I'd take a guess at saying it's still a few months & updates away.

It may take a year for getting developed and added to the game, but that's just a prediction. I'd say it would be ready by May/June of 2026. They would have to test it out too before publishing it to the game. Idk though...but it's great that they are bringing something new and fresh to gt7.
 
Yeah GT probably counts as both single player and live service in their eyes, and so that's why they put PD with those particular devs:

Guerrilla - working on a Horizon MMO as well as the single player entries.
Bluepoint/Bend - were working on live service games (that got canned) after their previous single player entries.
Media Molecule (I assume that's their logo) - not sure of their new project but Dreams was more live service than not.

Also there's this slide:
