Gran Turismo 5 Release Date Announced at E3

Polyphony Digital announced at E3 the release date for Gran Tursimo 5 (about time!). The long awaited GT5 has been a game that almost every GT fanboy has been waiting for.

What we know so far:

  • Vehicular Damage:

Performance Damage
Performance damage affects how the car performs based on calculating the physical effects of collisions and damage on various parameters. It affects vehicle stability and control, depending on the amount of damage taken. This level of damage affects both premium and standard cars.

Dirt, Scratches, and Dents
This is damage that can be visually seen, and involves the vehicle collecting dirt, scratches and dents. This level of damage affects both premium and standard cars.

Dislodging and Deformation of Body Panels
This third level of damage causes body panels to come loose or to deform from their original shapes. This level of damage affects premium cars only.

  • Lighting effects have changed dramatically. Break lights now illuminate the dirt that’s kicked up behind the car during dusk, and the sun follows the passage of time. So as you drive the endurance races the you’ll see the sun set as you get later and later into the night hours.

  • Nascar will make it’s debut in GT
  • Stereoscopic 3-D
  • Online multiplayer, spectator, and private track modes available
  • Collectors Edition is available for pre-order. Pre-order includes the following:
