The source did however indicate that Sony has not confirmed a date as of yet and so could change their plans at any point.<\/p>\n<p>It is likely though that the company will announce GT5&rsquo;s official release date at GamesCom on the 18th of August.<\/p>\n<p>The game, which was initially revealed to the public at E3 2006 is set to feature a 16 member online multiplayer platform, dynamic weather changes and night racing. In addition GT5 will see the first WRC and NASCAR licensing in the franchises&rsquo; history.<\/p>\n<p>At E3 2009 Kazonuri Yamauchi, part of the GT5 development team, announced that &ldquo;We&#8217;ve actually reached a point where we can probably release it anytime, except that you can also keep working as long as you want to as well, it&#8217;s just a matter of timing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mygaming.co.za\/forum\/showthread.php?t=2103\" target=\"_self\">Discuss Gran Turismo 5<\/a> in the forums<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GTPlanet source hints at a 2009 release date<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":161,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[11681],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4218","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-playstation"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4218","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/161"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4218"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4218\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4218"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4218"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4218"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
