Foster remarked on how the new music modes may serve as a great jumping on point for new players, but he didn't feel much yearning to play it more than once. Gran Turismo 7 also offers two new modes: Music Rally and Music Replay. From there, players can choose between arcade races of varying difficulty, time trials or a custom rally. Outside of the campaign, Gran Turismo 7 offers a variety of extra racing modes, including missions tied to specific locations, Sport Mode for competitive races, and events that are collected under each racetrack.
"If you're expecting to see quite a few high-profile cars from the last two or three years here, like the latest McLarens or any Tesla built since 2012, you may be disappointed." "With a few exceptions, most manufacturers' ranges tend to top out at around 2017," Reilly said. While it pays attention to history, IGN's Reilly highlighted that the game's car collection - which exceeds 400 vehicles - is missing some more modern cars. What's perhaps more surprising is Gran Turismo 7 lands it remarkably well, giving its campaign an oddball character all of its own."

This is also pointed out in Martin Robinson's 'Eurogamer Recommended' review, which said: "Of all the many twists and turns Polyphony Digital has taken the series over the years, Gran Turismo: the visual novel might well be the most surprising yet. "Instead of the other titles' more freeform vehicle-purchasing exploration, your route through the early part of the game is tightly controlled and punctuated with educational mini-lectures on significant or enduring aspects of car culture," Channel said, calling the delivery of such "charming yet stuffy." However, Channel pointed out that it is different to the campaign in earlier games, and this might frustrate long-time fans. Foster was "sceptical that GT Café could amount to much more than a gimmick," but admitted that the setting made him care about the cars he was racing and collecting.

The main campaign takes players through to a café location which serves as a hub to choose missions and upgrade or change cars. The game brings back its car-collecting campaign mode, which sees players make their way through various locations, winning or purchasing vehicles along the way. The Gran Turismo series is first and foremost about its cars, perhaps more so than similar games. How the game looks was also commented on by Mark Foster in an 8/10 review for GamingBible, who said "Gran Turismo 7 is just unfathomably beautiful in all aspects" and added that every vehicle has been "loving, painstakingly crafted" that they could almost be real cars racing around real tracks. "Each vehicle is fettled in obsessive detail, down to the exact arrangement of reflective elements in an individual car's headlights." "While it remains compatible with the PlayStation 4, on the newer machine this is a jaw-slackeningly beautiful game," Channel wrote. This was also noted in Mike Channel's 4/5 review for The Guardian, which said "At first glance, Gran Turismo 7 offers much the same experience as the original game did back in 1997: an idiosyncratically clean aesthetic, a focus on authentic handling and impossibly shiny cars that put any car wash to shame."Ĭhannel commented on how the series has always sought to "demonstrate the true graphical potential of Sony's consoles," which Gran Turismo 7 appears to have done on PS5. "Each vehicle is fettled in obsessive detail, down to the exact arrangement of reflective elements in an individual car's headlights" Mike Channell, The Guardian "From the first honk of the series' iconic countdown klaxon, there are moments during Gran Turismo 7 when it feels almost like a remake of the 1997 original," said Luke Reilly in a 9/10 IGN review. A couple remarked on how Grand Turismo 7 felt reminiscent of the first game in the series, which was released in 1998 to critical acclaim. Reviews have been positive so far with a leaning on nostalgia.
