This was the final paragraph in the latest GT5 press release:

Gran Turismo 5 will contain more than 1000 perfectly recreated cars ranging from the latest supercars to the cars of NASCAR and WRC. Standing proud will be the fastest car in the game - and one of the fastest to ever leave the drawing board - the Red Bull X1. Earn your chance to drive the Red Bull X1 when Gran Turismo 5 goes on sale later this year.

Hopefully this indicates too that it might come this year...

Try this tag instead, will embed Youtube videos in the 16:9 format instead of 4:3, and you just use the code at the end of the video url.

Magic. :D

So we should hear about the new release date today, yeah?

Perhaps they will delay the announcement :p .

I just watched that rally footage. I'm not a great Gran Turismo player by any stretch of the imagination, but that guy looked like he may have been drunk. What the hell was he doing from the 1:20 mark onward? And I'm not going to lie, that invisible wall was a bit of a turn off. Minor nitpicks, though. I don't intend on hitting the wall during my races anyways ;).

Try racing while having the camera set in the view that shows what's behind you + the front of the car. The people that drive in those demos are usually trying to show off the graphics/damage done to the car, so they have to deal with adjusting the camera angle in the game while driving.

Uh they said they would announce it after Black Friday which is November 26th.

No, they said they'd announce a new date before the end of the month, and were aiming for a US launch 8 to 12 days after Black Friday.

Eurogamer and others then started predicting Dec 3rd and 8th.

    • Ninja Theory's new Hellblade game is action-focused and set in Purgatory by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Ninja Thery has been building its award-winning Hellblade series since 2017, delivering Senua's Sacrifice and Senua's Saga since then. Today at the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase, the studio had a brand-new installment announcement featuring Senua again, but this time, she is in a version of purgatory, and the focus is on the action. Simply named Senua, this new entry is described as a "full-on action-adventure" experience, delivering an expanded focus on combat, puzzle-solving, and freedom of exploration. The developer says that it is keeping the same high production values and storytelling features of the previous games while giving what players have been asking for in the gameplay department. The entirety of Ninja Theory is now working on Senua, giving the project much more manpower than ever before, while also letting the team draw on its action roots from Devil May Cry and prior titles. However, the studio also confirmed that its previously announced Project Mara horror experience is no longer in development. Alongside snappier traversal moves, Senua will be able to take stealth and direct combat routes. She has access to her own sword, plus any enemy weapons as well, with dual wielding also being an option for most dropped melee swords, axes, and other weapons. Outside of melee combat, Senua will be able to use special abilities that let her alter the reality around her. The world is said to be about twice the size of Hellblade 2. While this won't be an open-world experience, the linear story will let players explore their surroundings further than before. The story of Senua will be set after the events of previous Hellblade titles, with our protagonist being stuck in her own version of Purgatory. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well. "She’s trapped between life and death on a quest to reach the afterlife and be reunited with the ones that she’s loved and lost," adds the studio. "Her belief is that by healing the wounds of her life, she can find the peace that is the key that unlocks the gate to the afterlife." Senua is releasing on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation 5 sometime in 2027.
    • Windows has had it, it's called camera frame server. I recall when it was first introduced in an early Windows 10 release it caused issues and there was a registry entry to disable it. Seems like they disabled it by default at some point. Windows 11 brought that toggle to the settings app (not just registry) a while ago.
    • You didn't like Mafia The Definite Edition? As a fan of the first when it came out, I liked that remake.
