Grand Touring It was the great dominator of driving simulators during the second half of the 90s of the last century and the beginning of the 21st century, a circumstance that made it one of the star sagas of PlayStation. However, from the seventh generation of consoles (PS360) it lost relevance due in part to its lack of evolution, and although it still has its followers, it does not have the impact of past times.
Despite not having the impact of times past, Kazunori Yamauchi, who is the creator of Gran Turismo, has dropped the possibility that the mythical saga of driving simulators will be brought to Windows on x86. It is important to note that this is not a confirmation, but this is what Yamauchi himself had to say at the World Grand Tourer Finale in the city-state of Monaco:
Yes I think so. Gran Turismo is a very well tuned title. There aren’t many platforms that can run the game at 4K/60fps natively, so one way to make it possible is to scale down the platform. It is not a very easy subject, but of course, we are looking into it and considering it.
In short, Polyphony Digital, developer of Gran Turismo, a subsidiary of PlayStation Studio and a company of which Yamauchi is CEO, does not rule out a possible port to PC, quite possibly from the seventh numbered installment of the saga.
Watching PlayStation video games on PC is starting to not be surprising and titles like Marvel’s Spider-Man, the first Nordic God of War and Horizon Zero Dawn have been quite well received, although the last one did not have a very brilliant premiere. Yes indeed, the company of Japanese origin continues to give the PC community its long teeth with a Bloodborne that many have been craving for quite some time.
In the event that Gran Turismo 7 comes to PC, yours is to expect an improvement in a graphic finish that already looks quite good on PlayStation 5, although for years there have been titles like the original DiRT Rally that continue to look spectacular despite which technically aren’t the ultimate anymore. We leave you with a video that shows what Gran Turismo 7 looks like on PlayStation 5.
