Gran Turismo 7 is finally getting back on its feet after taking on the ire of a large swath of players upset over patch 1.07’s reduced rewards.
New patch, and not the least, for Gran Turismo 7 which intends to win back the hearts of its fans. The software had indeed been victim of a real common charge from some of the players who had raised their shields following patch 1.07 and the ensuing server crash behind it. Nevertheless, Polyphony Digital had split froma press release to reassure everyoneand is now rolling out patch 1.11.
Available on PS5 and PS4, patch 1.11 therefore increases the gains some proofs, adds new ones and fixes a multitude of small glitches here and there. In addition, it adds a handful of options for readability and general ergonomics.
