Gran Turismo 7 Reportedly Aiming to Launch in First Half of 2021

Gran Turismo 7 may launch in the first half of 2021, according to a reported Canadian PlayStation 5 advertisement. As reported by GTPlanet (and spotted by user ElietheStig on the site's forums,) a YouTube advert for the PlayStation 5 shows an image from the game. The screenshot is accompanied by a small piece of text, which reads "Sortie prévue pour la première moitié de 2021," which when translated reads "Release scheduled for the first half of 2021." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/06/11/gran-turismo-7-announcement-and-gameplay-trailer-ps5-reveal-event"] Sony has yet to announce an official release date for Gran Turismo 7, which was revealed back in June of this year, but this advert suggests that we might see Gran Turismo 7 release within the PlayStation 5's launch window, at some point in early 2021. The advert is yet to be verified by multiple sources, so do take it with a pinch of salt.

An official PlayStation Blog post added that the game will benefit from the haptic feedback provided by the DualSense and the PlayStation 5's 3D Audio system.
