Early Thursday, Gran Turismo 7’s servers went down for what was supposed to be a two-hour maintenance period. However, more than 24 hours later, the game is still offline.
Mere hours after extending server maintenance, Polyphony Digital announced there would be even more downtime for Gran Turismo 7.
“Due to an issue found in Update 1.07, we will be extending the Server Maintenance period,” Polyphony Digital’s statement reads on Twitter. “We will notify everyone as soon as possible when this is likely to be completed. We apologize for this inconvenience and ask for your patience while we work to resolve the issue.”

This would be all fine and dandy if Gran Turismo 7 were playable offline, but it mostly isn’t. As of Friday, March 18, 2022, Polyphony Digital hasn’t updated fans on what’s happening or when online services might return. Gran Turismo 7 utilizes online capabilities more than any previous entry in the series. So the game is virtually unplayable for now, so it’s odd that Polyphony Digital hasn’t kept everyone in the loop.
