Rumor: Gran Turismo 5 on track for holiday '09 release in Europe
Despite what series creator Kazunori Yamauchi
had to say to us on the topic during E3, Spanish newspaper
El Financiero quotes SCEE executive James Armstrong as stating that
Gran Turismo 5 (the full, real deal – not
Prologue 2 or some-such) will be released in Europe "by Christmas 2009." This is, of course, concerning a series that's been historically fast and
furious loose with release dates.
GTPlanet – which is part of the chain of custody on this rumor – speculates that, if true, we could see a summer 2009 release for
GT5 in Japan and a late 2009 / early 2010 launch in the West. This scenario would certainly follow the staggered roll-outs of previous
Gran Turismo titles to a (Model) T.
