Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi has confirmed that GT5 players are set for regular DLC updates, and that Gran Turismo 6 is in development. "Of course we're working on GT6 already," he told IGN, as he had previously confirmed in an interviewwith AutoWeek way back last year.IGN asked him how he will decide what separates content that will go into GT5 as DLC or held back for GT6.
Yamauchi replied: "I think what really will be the separating factor is; something that we can't update through a DLC is something that obviously has to be saved for GT6. Things that we can provide through DLC we will, so that's really the market difference."
And according to Yamauchi, there's plenty of DLC on the way to GT5. "It's been about a year since we've released the game and in the interim we've had about 15 updates that were performed on the game. These set up the basic platform for the system. Now that we have that out of the way, we're ready to release more expansions and content to add to the game," he said.
"I think that will include cars and trucks that we'll be releasing maybe once every two months or so from here on out. What we do from here on is also really dependent on the reaction of the users to this first DLC that we just released because this is the first one. Now we have the feedback from our customers and we'll see how that will affect what we will do from here."
