Zoom Vor rund zwei Wochen wurde das von den Gran Turismo-Fans erwartete und sowohl für die PlayStation 5 als auch für die PlayStation 4 verfügbare Gran Turismo 7 veröffentlicht. Seither hat das Entwicklerstudio Polyphony Digital zwei Updates herausgegeben; eines am Donnerstag, 10. März und eines am Donnerstag, 17. März 2022. Mit den Aktualisierungen, zu denen die offiziellen Änderungsnotizen weiter unten eingesehen werden können, wird einerseits am Funktionsumfang geschraubt, andererseits Fehler beseitigt und Anpassungen vorgenommen die das Ziel verfolgen die allgemeine Spielbarkeit zu verbessern.
Mit dem jüngsten Update V1.07 ist es nun möglich Gran Turismo 7-Rennen über den Broadcast-Modus auf YouTube zu streamen. Zur Vermeidung von Copyright-Problemen steht in diesem Modus jedoch keine spielinterne Musik zur Verfügung und die Music Rally oder Music Replay-Stücke sind nicht anwählbar. Aktivieren lässt sich der Broadcast-Modus über [GT Menu] > [Options] > [Global] > [Sound Volume] und Einstellung [Broadcast Mode] auf On.
Das in der Woche zuvor veröffentlichte Update brachte 64 Musikstücke für Music Replay und eine funktionale Ergänzung in Form der Anzeige der Windstärke und Windrichtung in der Streckenkarte.
