The future of Gran Turismo to be revealed next week

All signs point to Gran Turismo 6 being unveiled for PS3 next week.

OPM has published an image of an invite that has been going out to press regarding an event on May 15th next week taking place at the Silverstone racing circuit.

It reads: Join us to celebrate 15 years of Gran Turismo and discover exciting announcements about its future.”

Gran Turismo 6 was first name-dropped in November 2010 – a surprise to some considering that Gran Turismo 5, which endured a hugely protracted development cycle, had only been released that month.

The game cropped up again in July of last year and was unsurprisingly tipped as a potential PS4 title. However, talk emerged earlier this year suggesting that the game could in fact be heading to PS3, despite the imminent release of PS4 later this year.

These rumours were backed up last month when retail listings for the game specifying PS3 as its host format appeared online.
