Gran Turismo 7 will mark a return to the classic games in the series. In an interview with Octane, Polyphony Digital CEO Kazunori Yamauchi stated that while e-sports will factor into the game, they won?t be as big a focus as they were in the last title, Gran Turismo Sport.

As Yamauchi explained, Gran Turismo Sport ?took on the challenge of full-scale e-sports? in a move away from the traditional model of previous games. The problem is it didn?t sell as well. The game did manage to attract 9.5 million players in the end, but ?it didn?t sell explosively from the beginning?. The reason for this was seemingly because it ?may have seemed quite outlandish for some people?. As such, Gran Turismo 7 will keep some e-sports elements, like the FIA-certified Gran Turismo Championships, but the game will return to the classic and nostalgic feel of games like Gran Turismo 1-4. It will ?provide the best Gran Turismo experience at present?.
