That's it Asian... you're now to receive a new edition with patches and DLC included like Japan, US and EU received this year.

The Asian "Gran Turismo 5 2013 Edition".

What I can say? This edition just have the Spec 2.0 update and along with previously released downloadable content.

This new release include too a exclusive Seasonal Event called “GT5 2013 Edition Special Challenge”... so you can from December 20, 2012 through January 10, 2013 play the Kazunori Yamauchi’s Nissan GT-R N24 GT Academy ’12 on the London circuit with “double credits”. And more, the 50 fastest contestants in the event will also receive PlayStation Store vouchers... amazing, no?

Since this is a GT thread...

What is the latest version in the US?

 

Edit: I see now, so Academy is 2013 edition o.O? When is it coming out?

There is just one Spec II Editon for each region.

Spec II Edition: Japan
XL Edition: US
Acadeby Edition: Europe
2013 Editon: Asia

So the latest US version is XL Edition... all of them are the same Edition with different names per region.

So the XL edition = Academy edition? I thought it was new o.O

SNAP :O

I could of bought GT XL for 10 bucks on Black Friday, awws :(

Yes... it's the name in US.

All versions come with the Spec 2.x patch + free DLC.

The next release edition will be out when the PD releases the Spec 3.x patch... the latest patch is 2.09... sometime util the 3.0.
