Sony and Polyphony Digital have announced update 1.36 for Gran Turismo 7. This patch will go live on Monday, August 7, and will add content from GT café extras to new cars. The patch will also include a crossover event that ties the Gran Turismo movie (releasing in late August of this year) to the actual game. In addition to four new available cars to choose from, players will also be able to pilot the Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3 ’18 for free.
The car, which will be featured in the upcoming film, can be redeemed from the special panel within the world map screen. Additionally, the GT-R Livery will also be added to the special panel within the world map screen.
The four new cars which will be available consist of:
- Chevrolet Corvette (C1) ‘5
- Maserati MC20 ‘2
- Toyota Ambulance Himedic ’2
- Toyota GR Corolla MORIZO Edition ‘2
Players must keep in mind that the Toyota Ambulance will be purchased from Brand Central in late September but players can gain access to it early through the World Series Showdown Viewers Gift Campaign. Players who enter the Toyota Gazoo Racing GT Cup 2023 and enter their online IDs will earn the Toyota GR Corolla MORIZO Edition ‘22 for free. Otherwise, the new car will be available from Brand Central in September.
Additionally, patch 1.36 will include the following three extra menus:
- Extra Menu No. 26: ‘Maserati’ (Collector Level 40 and above)
- Extra Menu No. 27: ‘Aston Martin’ (Collector Level 44 and above)
- Extra Menu No. 28: ‘Kei cars’ (Collector Level 27 and above)
Patch 1.36 also will also repair the following issues:
- ‘Preparing’ is displayed on screen but the Host cannot start the race.
- Entering the track in Practice does not let you drive and skip directly to the Final Race.
- Players in the same room do not appear on the member list or during the race.
- Completing a race would not let users progress further.
All things over, update 1.36 is an exciting patch. With so many new cars and fixes to issues in the game, Gran Turismo 7 is sure to attract both existing and new players.
