As was suspected when Polyphony Digital announced
GT5�s
online maintenance schedule earlier this week, Kazunori Yamauchi has now confirmed,
via Twitter, the game�s next update should become available on August 29th/30th.
Following up with
his previous remarks about v1.11, he wisely tempers expectations, reiterating the update will focus only on fixing software bugs within the game. New �features and content�, he says, will be arriving �in September and October�. That said, it is worth noting
GT5�s upcoming NASCAR Seasonal Event, featuring Jeff Gordon�s racing suit and helmet, is still scheduled to go live along with v1.11.
Kazunori has also hinted that he�s considering posting tweets in English, which would certainly be very welcome move by many of his non-Japanese-speaking followers and may help reduce the chance of mis-information spreading due to bungled translations.
