Das Neue Gran Turismo 7-Update beginnt mit der Fixierung von Credits und Belohnungen

When Gran Turismo 7 launched, it marked the release of another great entry in the long-running simulation racing franchise. However, after some time, players began to realize that cars in GT7 cost a lot more in-game credits than previous games.

Furthermore, after an update that decreased credits and rewards earned for some races took the game offline for more than 24 hours, players grew even more frustrated with some of the decisions developer Polyphony Digital made. So much so that Polyphony Digital president Kazunori Yamauchi published an apology that contained promises to fix the game’s economy in regards to credits, rewards, and more. He said that the fixes would arrive in an April update, and it seems that update is now live.

Released today, Update 1.11 contains many improvements and adjustments to GT7’s economy and more.

Here’s a full look at what to expect after installing Update 1.11 :
