Polyphony Digital CEO and Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi has conceded the PlayStation 3-era was a “nightmare” for the Polyphony team, reports IGN.
This, combined with the launch of Gran Turismo 6 after the release of the PS4, is why the title sold so poorly.
We always have the pressure that we have to sell numbers,
At the same time, the conditions for GT6 were really against us, mainly because the PlayStation 3 hardware was a very difficult piece of hardware to develop for, and it caused our development team a lot of stress.
So [GT]5 and [GT]6 was really a nightmare for us.
Yamauchi added that this was not the case on the PS4, and that development on the next Gran Turismo was much smoother.
Polyphony and Yamauchi are currently working on Gran Turismo: Sport, which is expected to release on 15 November.
