Support NeoGAF

[BlvckFox]

Gotta say, I really didn’t care for this until I read the article. Seems like a pretty significant difference in VR. Looking forward to it.

 

[kyliethicc]

I think it’s pretty crazy that they opened up pre orders before announcing the GT7 VR mode, its like the number 1 selling point IMO (outside of Horizon).

yeah for me its THE selling point. this is a VR2 system seller for me, much more than Horizon

what about Multiplayer?

 

[Markio128]

what about Multiplayer?

Full multiplayer included.

 

[SmokedMeat]

VR racing is amazing. People new to this will be amazed.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

Full multiplayer included.

now....this is what i am taking about.

 

[TrebleShot]

This looks absolutely phenomenal, I can not wait to try this.
Hopefully support for these in the future:

F1
WRC
Any racing game tbh

 

[midnightAI]

Lots of impressions coming through, one from GTPlanet...

 

[iHaunter]

what about Multiplayer?

Yes! All of the game is fully included except split screen since PS5 can't support 2x VR headsets at once.

But full online also playable in VR.

 

[Umbasaborne]

I will get a psvr 2 for this if they ever get cheaper

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

This achievement is going to be such a W for sony and Gran Turismo.

is going to be the "But it has VR support". you can't compete against that.

 

[PisswasserYellow]

VR racing is amazing. People new to this will be amazed.

It really is. I love racing sims but my Rift S recently shit the bed and I just can't go back to playing on a screen.

 

[mckmas8808]

Oh. Well then. Maybe I spoke to soon when I said not at launch.

 

[Punished Miku]

Basically just feels like real driving. One of the few methods of play that doesn't conflict with your body since you'll just be sitting in a chair.

Oh man, Dirt Rally still made me a bit nauseous lol

 

[GreyHand23]

what about Multiplayer?

All of the game is available in vr including multiplayer.

 

[sachos]

The word of mouth begins.

 

[Punished Miku]

Yeah, I enjoyed the few I played on Quest but still felt like I didn't want to go more than 15 minutes.

 

[Markio128]

Shit - the Laguna Seca ‘corkscrew’ is going to fuck so many people up in VR

 

[mckmas8808]

Ryan is making me want to buy GT7 lol. I already have a PSVR2 pre-ordered.

 

[James Sawyer Ford]

But THE DUCK told me this was thrown together in two weeks because of low psvr2 pre orders

 

[ManaByte]

GT7 is pure class I can't wait to experience it in VR

GIF isn't accurate. Andrew House is a Hobbit.

[mckmas8808]

It's incredible to see Ryan McCaffery talk like this about PSVR2, since he's been IGN's head Xbox guy for the past 10 years! This is huge!

This is Sony being Sony. They ALWAYS do marketing like this. I think it's stupid, but they believe in having multiple marketing beats for everything they sell. They used to do this back when they did E3. They'll have an E3 showcase and leave information out of it. Just to release more information 2 hours after the showcase.

Do it!
I don't have PS5 nor PSVR 2 nor GT7 and I think I'm buying those together
It's my dream come true. Long time GT fan and have not played GT7 yet

 

[FalsettoVibe]

Yep.....he sounded super impressed.

 

[Son_of_Zardoz]

Kind of regret that my force feedback wheel is Xbox/PC, not for Playstation. GT7 in VR is going to be amazing.

 

[Tiago Rodrigues]

GT7 is worth it even without VR2.

And this said by someone that usually doesn't like driving games.

 

[mckmas8808]

I think that guy owned a Delorean

He did and said the Delorean in Gt7 in PSVR2 was PERFECT! He felt like he was back in his old car again.

 

[Markio128]

On a positive note, the dualsense is great with GT7.

 

[Markio128]

He did and said the Delorean in Gt7 in PSVR2 was PERFECT! He felt like he was back in his old car again.

And now he won’t have to worry about the thing breaking down every 50 miles. Win. Seriously though, he did seem genuinely stoked about it, which is really nice to see.

 

[ExcitableBoy]

I have preordered the PSVR2 based on these impressions.

I assume GT VR is a free update if you have the base game?

 

[Raven117]

Im considering buying a PSVR just for this......

Gran Turismo 7 in PSVR2: New Footage and Hands-On First Impressions

https://youtu.be/S9YZxGwHfrQ I just got back from a trip to PlayStation’s North American headquarters where I had the chance to be one of the first people to play Gran Turismo 7 on the PSVR2, and I’m here to tell you all about it. Let’s get to it! Compatibility The big news is that Gr

www.gtplanet.net

"The PSVR2 is a massive leap from the original PSVR, and as someone who currently owns a Meta Quest 2, I would even go so far as to say the PSVR2 sets a new benchmark among mainstream virtual reality headsets. The PSVR2 is significantly more comfortable than the Quest 2, which seems to press all of its weight directly into your face around your eyes."

"This process is called “foveated rendering”, and it works so well while you are actually using the PSVR2 that you would never even know it’s happening. It’s impossible to look at a lower resolution area because the headset detects your eyes have moved and updates the new focus area in milliseconds."

"I played for nearly an hour on various tracks, in various weather conditions, with a full grid of cars, and I never noticed any dropped frames or stuttering. It just worked, and it looked incredible."

"Driving games are just perfectly suited to virtual reality, and from my perspective it appears that Gran Turismo 7 is offering one of the best virtual reality driving experiences available today."

"The detail and lighting in things like the gauge clusters are just a treat to look at in the PSVR2’s HDR display when you’re racing at night."

It is indeed

[MidGenRefresh]

I'm not a VR fan but when I had Oculus the one game that blown me away was Project Cars 2 in VR. Racing games are a perfect fit for this tech.

 

[Quixz]

Ryan McCaffrey saying such positive things?!

 

[Rush2112]

IGN hype coming right on the heels of the false Bloomberg report. When AAA companies say jump, IGN gets on its knees and starts sucking.

 

[Raven117]

Same here.

The idea of checking over your shoulder during an online race...is...I mean...wow.

Or maybe he just liked it.

 

[Markio128]

Mildly disappointed that GT7 doesn’t use the VR controllers - in multiplayer, I was hoping to:

 

[NickFire]

its a free update on VR2 launch day

if you already own GT7, you can play the entire game in VR on launch day for free

I wasn't talking about changing my tune on the game (already got that).

But my oh my oh my. Sony went and f'ing did it. They actually flipped a notorious Xbox fella to the Blue. That's when you know the tech is ready!

Good vid, thanks for posting. Getting more interested.

Can anyone comment on how claustrophobic cockpits translate in VR? Windshields look like slits to me in these vids.

I currently sit a few feet away from from a TV, and even then I dont do cockpit view. Just feels disconnected with a wheel.

 

[Ansphn]

Holy shit. GT7 VR is about to change the destiny of VR. Mark my word. It's a game changer for VR.

 

[SlimySnake]

They need to put VR kiosks in Bestbuys and Gamestops. Thats what sold me PSVR back in 2016. I need to see GT7 running in vr or im going to pass.
