Just like in previous Gran Turismo games, the licence tests feature as a challenge in order to gain access to further races, along with providing a way to learn and improve your racing technique. It’s amazing how in-depth Gran Turismo 7 goes without making it seem over-complicated for the average player. This can range from a simple car wash to a regular car servicing, all the way up to an engine rebuild.
If you are into car tuning just like in real-life, the game also accommodates this with a wealth of other options that can be modified on your car.Īlso just like in real-life, car maintenance needs to be performed for your car to be running smoothly. Following the performance score system makes tuning and car purchasing a breeze.
GRAN TURISMO 7 RATING UPGRADE
Each car in Gran Turismo 7 has a performance score (think of it as an average figure) and each upgrade will tell you how much it will increase or decrease your score, giving you a clearer idea as to whether the selected upgrade will be of benefit to your car. Taking your car to the tuning shop will allow you to purchase these upgrades and give you the winning advantage in a race, and the system is designed in a user-intuitive way for those who may not be as savvy with the automotive mechanical side of things. A higher player level unlocks additional features such as more tuning upgrades for your car. Each car that you win or purchase earns the player Collector Points, which increases your player level in the game. These core aspects are collecting cars, performing tuning upgrades, general maintenance and licence tests, which all remain as part of the franchise’s formula, but have been emphasised further in Gran Turismo 7.
GRAN TURISMO 7 RATING HOW TO
I found the Menu Book system to be very complementary to the overall experience as it gives players a defined direction on how to play the game, without changing the core aspects of Gran Turismo. After finishing numerous Menu Books, more aspects of Gran Turismo World start to unlock, along with new tracks to race on, which gives you added functionality to the game. These objectives range from obtaining certain cars that are won through races or winning a podium finish in a championship.
Once you accept the Menu Book, you then go and complete the objectives required before returning to the café. Think of this system as if it were a mission or a quest. Each time you visit the café, the owner offers you a Menu Book, which contains the objectives in order to complete it. With Gran Turismo 7, the game incorporates a new system constructed around a café in Gran Turismo World, called Menu Books. Previous Gran Turismo titles have essentially been left open-ended from the start, allowing the player to define their own direction by selecting any race they like and purchasing whichever car needed to compete in that race (subject to credits available and licence attained). I found the selection of used cars to choose from to be rather humorous, as the prices accurately reflect their current real-world resale values (such as a 2001 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R that costs six-figures in-game). Before competing in your first race, you must select a used car to purchase. Each of these options is progressively unlocked throughout the course of the game. You start the game off in Gran Turismo World, which is a small town with buildings that act as menu options, such as the tuning shop, auto garage and car dealerships. If you have played Gran Turismo Sport, you will feel right at home as the user interface mostly remains the same.
But how does the latest offering compare with the previous release? Fast forward to 2022 and the franchise returns with Gran Turismo 7, coinciding with the franchise’s 25 th anniversary. The idea of collecting cars, racing through a library of iconic tracks, and learning various driving techniques to improve your lap time, all in a rinse-repeat fashion never grows old. Gran Turismo holds a special place in me, having grown up with the franchise since it started in 1997.
