Recently Polyphony Digital President and Creator of Gran Turismo Kazunori Yamauchi announced that Gran Turismo 7 races to both PS5 and PS4 on March 4th, 2022... however, in asterisked fine print it notes for GT Campaign (including Single Player) mode alongside the Livery Editor, Scapes, Trial Mountain / High-Speed Ring legendary circuits, GT Cafe and GT Auto tuning an Internet connection is required.
While some of the other features are reminiscent of GT Sport lending validation to the online requirement, making an Internet connection mandatory for the GT Campaign Solo mode isn't sitting well with some GT7 enthusiasts.
To quote from PushSquare.com on this Gran Turismo 7 requirement concern:
"Some fans will be wondering why they can't enjoy the single player campaign without an Internet connection – especially if it operates independently from the multiplayer modes."
Many may recall last year when an Internet Connection Required for Godfall PS5 Single Player was confirmed, followed by the announcement of Denuvo Anti-Cheat Technology Coming to PS5 Developers as reports noted that Microsoft's Xbox Series X DRM Adversely Affects Offline Gameplay.
What's next? Perhaps Sony's Cloud Gaming Patent for System & Method to Stream Video could be implemented in the PlayStation realm.
