Gran Turismo 7 has rolled out yet another update that, among other things, improves the in-game economy. Update 1.11 was released on Thursday, bringing more races and challenges, better availability of used cars, and some physics tweaks, in addition to bug fixes.

GT7 arrived in early March for the PS4 and PS5 consoles. Although the game felt true to the 25-year-old franchise, it quickly raised the ire of fans, first because of the presence of microtransactions and then because a day-and-a-half server outage left almost the entire game unplayable for everyone.

Developer Polyphony Digital’s studio boss, Kazunori Yamauchi, apologized to fans in late March for the downtime and for changes to the game’s economy that drastically reduced the amount of credits a player could earn in an hour. As part of that apology, every GT7 player was given an extra 1.2 million credits.
