When Gran Turismo 6 was announced as a PS3 game releasing after the PS4 was launched, it was met with surprise. Surely such a key Sony-exclusive IP would make an ideal launch game for a new console. But of course, Gran Turismo 6 had been in development for years and for the PS3′s architecture — a very different machine to the PS4. You also have to consider there’s now 80 million PS3 consoles out there, so a lot more potential for sales than on a brand new machine.
Developer Polyphony Digital has since confirmed that there will be no quick conversion of GT6 for release on PS4, instead they are working on Gran Turismo 7 already. And now Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi has stated we can expect to be playing the game in 2014 if everything goes to plan.
I bet it's GT7 prologue but we know how a 'glorified demo' outsold a franchise's biggest selling racing game on another flop platform though so it'll snatch wigs either way.
