Forums - Sony - GT5 to feature an RPG mode

B-Spec is back and it's bigger than ever.......

"The RPG mode is actually called B-Spec (with the main racing modes under the A-Spec banner) and had been planned since GT3. Yamauchi wasn’t able to complete it back then, but now he can include his vision of a Gran Turismo RPG on the disc with GT5. In B-Spec you will play through the game as a race team director as you recruit drivers, enter competitions and then get your guys ready for the race.

You’ll be able to build up to six drivers through the game, each of whom you’ll be able to motivate and command during a race, but you can’t control them directly. Instead you need to train them, improve their experience and manage them correctly to get the wins. The greatest challenge will be the 24-hour races in which you’ll need four drivers as you pit your wits against the elements, fatigue and your opposition. It looks like a fantastic new mode that turns Gran Turismo on its head and proves yet again that GT5 could make all other sim-racers obsolete."

SUUUWEEEET!!!!!

I was never a racing games fan, but GT5 caught my interest after the first trailers were shown back then. Now it's one of the games I'm looking most forward to.



updated: 14.01.2012

playing right now: Xenoblade Chronicles

Hype-o-meter, from least to most hyped:  the Last Story, Twisted Metal, Mass Effect 3, Final Fantasy XIII-2, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Playstation ViTA

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.

B- spec was already in Gt 4 but probably in GT5 it will be more improved

Not according to Kaz. He said they wanted to implement in in GT3, but skipped the opportunity.


Sure they wanted to implement in Gt3 but this feature came in Gt 4 and definitely  it will be a lot improved in GT5



I hope its turn based and have great boss battle music with a great story.

Yeah, I checked it out. It's not really much at all in GT4, which is probably why it wasn't really talked about. In GT5, it's completely fleshed out.


yup definitely Gt5 will have greater version of B - spec mode
