Sony Computer Entertainment today announced that its upcoming Gran Turismo 5 Prologue will be hitting the stands by April 17 this year, and will be available at both Blu-ray as well as the PlayStation store.
Featuring up to 50 meticulously detailed cars – including vehicles by Ferrari, Lotus and Nissan – for users to race on five beautifully rendered reversible tracks from around the globe, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue runs in full high definition at 1080p. Additionally, in conjunction with a robust offline experience, for the first time in the history of the franchise GT 5 Prologue supports up to 16 players racing head-to-head online, complete with global leaderboards, to quell any question of who is the best driver in the “World of GT.” Furthermore, a feature called My Garage allows users to develop a personal profile page within the game and interact with other car enthusiasts from around the globe.
