Gran Turismo Sport Official Thread

I just checked the last few posts and thought this was GT7 shutting down soon. I was honestly annoyed for a minute because I was still planning to get it at some point. I can't imagine many people still playing this old game anyway. But, perhaps I should just skip it if so much is tied to the always online stuff.

Online requirement to save removed, can play campaign content offline as the game is shelved.


[UPDATE: 29 January 2024]​

On January 31, 2024, at 06:00 UTC, the online services of the PlayStation®4-exclusive software “Gran Turismo Sport” will come to an end. Prior to this on December 01, 2023, we will also end the distribution of purchasable Add-On items from the PlayStation Store that can be used in-game.

After the end of service date, it will no longer be possible to utilize online services such as the Community, Open Lobby, and Sport Mode, nor online features/items such as custom liveries. The offline portions of the game can still be played, including purchased Add-Ons.

Additionally, all gameplay progression will continue to be saved through Saved Data on the PlayStation®4 system.

We would like to thank the many users of the Gran Turismo Sport online service since its first launch in 2017. From here on, we will continue to further improve the online services for the currently available title “Gran Turismo 7” on PlayStation®4 and PlayStation®5.

What happens to my “Garage” cars and my Career Mode progression?​
