Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) has reiterated that Polyphony Digital racer Gran Turismo 5 is still on track to hit store shelves in 2010 – but there’s still no sign of an official date as of yet.
Quizzed by Siliconera as to whether or not the eagerly anticipated PS3-exclusive would be with us before the year comes to a close, SCEA marketing boss Peter Dille commented:
"Yeah [it’s on track], Kazunori came out with a comment that they are working on a few last things. He apologized to the community, but explained it is coming before Christmas. We haven’t put a date to that yet, but we will just as soon as we get word from him when he’s done."
Dille added that this statement applies to both North American and Japanese territories, though strangely didn’t give any mention to PAL regions. Nonetheless, the game’s expected to ship globally in 2010.
More as we get it.
