U.S. retailer NewEgg has it down for 28th November release

Back in February SONY's SCEE SVP Michael Denny had let it slip

“Look at the games coming out on the PlayStation 3 like The Last of Us, Beyond: Two Souls, GT6, and then on the third-party side of things another fantastic Assassin’s Creed, GTA,” SCEE’s SVP Michael Denny said in a recent interview.

however,series creator Kazunori Yamauchi actually 'announced' the game back in 2010

Mr. Gran Turismo, Kazunori Yamauchi, has told AutoWeek that the studio's already at work on the next game in the series.

Asked whether Gran Turismo 6 development was underway, he simply replied: "Yeah.

And when can we expect it to release?
"It's not something that we can talk that lightly on," said Yamauchi. "It took 2,000 days to get all the ideas that went into GT5. It's just too early to be talking about GT6."

So, this will be a PS5 release day game, right?

[Turtle]

Yep.

It would also conveniently explain its absence from any media, since they should be advertising it by now if it was coming out on the PS3 in November.

And, if they held it for the PS5, it would make a great launch title.

Not to mention late November is a perfect launch window for the PS5, which we know will be released this year.

Pssst...

you mean PS4?

S.I.M was taking the piss with the PS5 theory


I dunno,i think there will be plenty of new games for this gen in November that haven't been advertised yet...a new COD title is coming for one

and then,i think SONY's strategy for GT6 is to not make the customer wait so long this time,by (officially)announcing it probably at E3 and it coming a few months later,instead of announcing it and 5 years later(or whatever it was)gamers getting it

[Rumpy]

I might be out of the loop here, but PS5? Don't you all mean PS4? Or did Sony just decide to skip over the PS4 and call it the PS5?

As for GT6, I'd love it to have a bit of free roaming and not just be track-based..

[Turtle]

Yeah, PS4. I shouldn't post after an early and long work day and no nap.

[MonkeyFinger]

Figured you meant it would be announced for the PS4 but by the time it actually came out it would be a launch title on the PS5. 

[Suitably Ironic Moniker]

Wow, I guess I should have included this guy  .

Wow, I guess I should have included this guy  .

well i didn't need it

officially announced for PS3

Sony has officially announced Gran Turismo 6 for PS3.

According to a leaked press release obtained by iAfrica, the game will be released this holiday season.

CVG understands the leaked press release is not fake, though it does not detail many of the game's features that will be revealed later today at a live event.

[metallicorphan]

Polyphony's Gran Turismo 6 is official, and is heading for Sony's PlayStation 3 later this year.

The announcement comes through the slightly bungled issuing of a press release ahead of a Silverstone event later this afternoon, where series creator Kazunori Yamauchi will officially unveil his latest game.

Silverstone itself is one of seven new tracks coming to the game, and while there's no official confirmation yet of what else will be joining the Northampton circuit there are already several pointers out in the wild. A video from the Detroit Motor Show earlier this year revealed a handful of old favourites will be returning, while Polyphony staff have been spotted scanning Australia's legendary Mount Panorama circuit in Bathurst.

All of Gran Turismo 5's vehicles are returning, and the comprehensive garage is being bolstered by new additions that bring the car count up to 1200. There will be more customisation options available, a feature alluded to in the first leaked screenshot of the game, which showed a Mercedes SLS AMG with several aero updates.

There will also be a renewed focus on downloadable content, with Yamauchi saying the game will be supported long after its release. Will it find its way to the PlayStation 4 too? We're hoping to bring you more details from the event itself later today.

EDIT:

It'll also boast an all-new physics model developed in tandem with automotive manufacturers and an advanced graphics engine that introduces adaptive tesselation.

Gran Turismo 6 will also be introducing new tracks on a monthly basis as Polyphony supports the game beyond its projected release at the end of the year.

CVG have 50 screenshots

[Laner]

Not a PS4 launch title?  Wow.

[Turtle]

Have a feeling that some of these later ps3 games will be forward compatible somehow.

Will be interesting to see where they go with this version since 5 was a mess. Wonder if they'll keep it ultra hardcore or add more features and gameplay to make it more fun and easier fort people to get into the game and just race.

Trailer and high rez screens on our front page. 

[metallicorphan]

Not a PS4 launch title?  Wow.

are you saying that after seeing the screens or meaning SONY's decision for it to be on PS3?


EDIT:

PS4 under consideration

Speaking to IGN at the recent GT6 reveal event at Silverstone race track, Yamauchi said, "We actually do have a PlayStation 4 version in mind, but for this holiday season, we thought it would be best for users to release on PS3 for now."

Seemingly moving to settle any premature excitement, however, Yamauchi added, "I thought the best scenario would be to have the game come out, then to have new scenarios, new DLC and other updates. Once the players have thoroughly played out the system, if the PlayStation 4 version came out naturally, as part of that process, I think that would be the best scenario."

If such a version were to be released, he added, gamers would "probably" be able to transfer over their saved progress.

[Laner]

Not a PS4 launch title?  Wow.

are you saying that after seeing the screens or meaning SONY's decision for it to be on PS3?

The latter.  Obviously we don't have all the info, but why they wouldn't do everything in their power to make it a PS4 launch title is a head scratcher.

[Isgrimnur]

So I should finally order GT5...?

[Rumpy]

That's unexpected. Considering how long it took for GT5 to come out, I'd have expected it to be a launch title. Unless they plan on making two versions of it But that's an odd decision considering the PS4's right around the corner. I don't really see the need for it this late in the game. On the upside, looks like they've finally fixed the smoke if looking at the screenshots is any indication.
