Gran Turismo 7 mega update increases rewards, adds races, and more

new Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.11 has significantly rebalanced the in-game economy as well as providing a host of other changes such as new races and more. It’s the biggest patch the racing video game has received since its initial launch, and appears largely designed to address criticism against the title after massive server outages and previous changes to the in-game economy. Developer Polyphony Digital has promised to make significant changes this month, and at first glance, it looks like it has delivered.

“The intent of the previously posted patch update was to correct an issue with inconsistent reward payment on a portion of the Global Circle events,” Kazunori Yamauchi, President of Polyphony Digital and founder of Gran Turismo, said late last month, while promising the changes that emerged today. “But to re-establish the intended balance and provide more accurate rewards based on the investment and completion of time, it was necessary to recalculate the reward system as a whole.”

You can check out the full lengthy patch notes for Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.11, straight from the source, below:
