Gran Turismo 5 Prologue to be released for FREE on PSN later this year

Gamespot has stated that Gran Turismo 5 Prologue is set to be released on the Playstation Network later this year as a FREE download. Their source of the news seems to be Kazunori Yamauchi from the Games Convention in Leipzig.

Today, we sat in on a presentation hosted by Gran Turismo series creator Kazunori Yamauchi as he demonstrated some of the new features that will be present in Gran Turismo 5 Prologue. The game is due for release on the PlayStation Network as a free download later this year.

Yamauchi started by introducing the front-end menu system of the game, which, as we described above, is a good deal different from previous entries in the Gran Turismo series. In addition to your current car appearing front and center in all its high-res glory, gorgeous interchangeable backgrounds from locales such as Germany, Tokyo, and more will also be available. Referred to as "3D wallpaper," these decorative background images will be tied to your profile in the game and you'll be able to change it whenever you like.
