When it was announced that Gran Turismo 5 would be receiving weather effects, it was instantly apparent why the game had taken years to develop. Polyphony Digital is known for taking extra steps to ensure that their games are a level ahead of the pack, and each release of the Gran Turismo series has coincided with the evolution of its genre. The images and videos displaying the weather effects this far have been scarce, but have done plenty to impress spectators. New video footage of a rainy battle on Special Stage Route 7 captures just how epic the presentation in Gran Turismo 5 will be.
Have a look at the video below and feel free to let your jaw drop when you realize you’re watching a game and not a movie:
