Gran Turismo 7 Game Update

The first Gran Turismo 7 content update for 2026 is now available, with the 1.67 game update landing on consoles earlier this morning following the server maintenance period.

Gran Turismo 7 looks to be heading back to its normal update schedule after a slightly chaotic period towards the end of 2025, with the first new game update of 2026 landing on consoles this Thursday.

As we’ve been somewhat suspecting, a new update is coming for Gran Turismo 7 next week as confirmed by series creator Kazunori Yamauchi in a regular social media post this morning.

Update (22/01): We’ve spoken to HPA and, unfortunately, this one is a mere slip of the finger. The company’s website was supposed to read “Gran Turismo 5” for the TT (the game in which it made its debut), and this has now been corrected. As it’s HPA’s 35th anniversary this year though, wouldn’t it be a nice way to mark it, Polyphony? The original article continues below:

During an interview at the Gran Turismo World Series 2025 World Finals here in Fukuoka, Japan, series producer Kazunori Yamauchi revealed that Gran Turismo 7 is currently maintaining an active user base of over two million monthly players—and perhaps more impressively, that number is still growing.

Somewhat unexpectedly, Polyphony Digital has pushed out a second update in exactly a week for Gran Turismo 7, with 1.66 bringing a small list of changes that attend to a handful of issues.

A quiet change to Gran Turismo 7, instituted in the recent 1.65/Spec III update, has made the game the dirtiest it has ever been — and we don’t mean in the Daily Races.

Ten weeks after it was first announced, the bumper Gran Turismo 7 Spec III update is now available to players worldwide, bringing a host of new content and features to get to grips with.

After what feels like the longest two months in the game’s life to date, Gran Turismo 7’s Spec III update is now available as a preload ahead of being unlocked on December 4.

Just under a month on from its surprise announcement, Polyphony Digital has announced more information on the first ever paid DLC for Gran Turismo 7: the Power Pack.

It’s now been confirmed that the bumper Gran Turismo 7 Spec III update will be arriving in the first week of December, exactly as we’ve been suspecting for a little while now.

A little unexpectedly, three days after the Gran Turismo World Series live event in Los Angeles, Sony and Polyphony Digital have announced a first-ever paid DLC pack for Gran Turismo 7.

Polyphony Digital has revealed more on its new Data Logger feature, heading into Gran Turismo 7 soon in the December “Spec III” update.

One of the all-time classic fan-favorite Gran Turismo cars is making its way back to the series after 25 years of absence, with the ridiculous Renault Espace F1 now confirmed to be part of the Gran Turismo 7 Spec III update.

Although we’ve only just head about the addition of the Polestar brand to Gran Turismo 7 in the upcoming Spec III update, it’s also been revealed as the center of a competitive online Time Trial event with a spectacular prize.

As part of today’s PlayStation State of Play, Gran Turismo series creator Kazunori Yamauchi has announced a massive new update for Gran Turismo 7, going by the expected name “Spec III”, and coming in December 2025.

Running a day early than we’d been expecting, the September 2025 update for Gran Turismo 7 is now available to all players following the server maintenance period.

We have a slightly earlier than usual date for the next Gran Turismo 7 update, with series creator Kazunori Yamauchi confirming the date to be Wednesday September 24.

A new update is coming for Gran Turismo 7 next week, with the timing confirmed by series creator Kazunori Yamauchi just after the Gran Turismo World Series event in Berlin along with a glimpse at some of the contents.
