Gran Turismo 7 hasn’t done an excellent job of retaining interest in the months since its launch, a lot of which is largely down to its issues with monetization and microtransactions, but developer Polyphony Digital has, nonetheless, been releasing frequent updates. While some, like the one a couple of weeks ago, bring new content with them, the newest patch, update 1.18, focuses mostly on big fixes and balancing changes.
One of the changes that the patch brings is specific to GT Cafe, where an exploit allowed players to receive Tickets repeatedly from Extra Menus. That exploit has now been fixed. Other issues in GT Auto, Music Replay, and more have also been addressed, including one that prevented save data from being loaded properly. You can check out the full details on what update 1.18 brings and changes in the patch notes below.
Gran Turismo 7 is available on PS5 and PS4.
