Photo modes are all the rage in video games these days, but the Gran Turismo series has featured one since the early 2000s, and so it’s no surprise to see developer Polyphony Digital pushing the boundaries of what can be achieved with a photo mode in its upcoming Gran Turismo 7. Today, a trailer introduces Scapes, an enhanced photo mode feature that is described as avant-garde by CEO Kazunori Yamauchi.
Scapes was first seen in GT Sport, but it looks to have been improved and expanded for GT7. It’s essentially a range of different beautiful backgrounds that players can take their cars to and snap pictures against. It simulates the practice that many car enthusiasts enjoy in real life — taking their cars to scenic locations and taking a bunch of pictures. You’ll now be able to do the same in GT7, and of course the incredible graphical fidelity of the game results in near photo-realistic image quality.
Gran Turismo 7 will be released for PS4 and PS5 on March 4, 2022. You can check out the announcement trailer and the video that shared the release date.
You can also take a look at the editions available to plan your pre-order.
