The Sony Afeela prototype is part of GT7’s free update. “Before the real vehicle is released, we would like as many people as possible to ride it in-game. Please enjoy it,” writes Sony Honda Mobility.

You also get a Škoda Vision Gran Turismo concept “created exclusively for the game,” and a ‘70 Chevrolet Chevelle SS454 Sport Coupe.

"We just released the Spec II update and the number of active users jumped up to double what it was before that,” said Series Producer and totem Kazunori Yamauchi to OverTake.GG during the World Series finals in Barcelona."

It included the first permanent roll-out of the Sony AI co-created opponent agent, seven new cars, snow driving, fresh single-player events and four-player local split-screen alongside a bevy of refinements. It arrived nearly two years after the game’s release and follows a spate of near-monthly content additions in between.

Speaking of sales, exact figures were not available, but Yamauchi-san was extremely positive about its results.

“[Gran Turismo 7] has been a success and we have more users,” enthused Yamauchi when comparing it to GT Sport.

Gran Turismo 7 Active Users Remain ‘Really High’​

The shift from a game that is complete from day one, such as in the PlayStation 2 era, to a ‘games as a service’ (GaaS) model is in part to try and keep players engaged for longer and racing over several years.

Gran Turismo 7’s approach is indicative of this strategy, where the importance of outright sales figures has been superseded by a social media tech giant-esque goal of ‘active’ users.

I would love to see numbers of users for GT7 before Spec 2 and after, Kaz
“[Gran Turismo 7] has been a success and we have more users,” enthused Yamauchi when comparing it to GT Sport.

Sometime last year numbers were 14+ million players overall for GT Sport. So, is Kaz refer to that?

I assume he meant launch aligned

If so,GT Sport had +6.6 mil. players. as end of 2018/beginning of 2019


So, GT7 should be more than that.
