Gran Turismo 6 reveal coming next week? Sony to host 15th anniversary

It looks like Sony is gearing up to announce Gran Turismo 6, the heavily rumored next entry in the popular racing series for PlayStation. Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) is hosting an event to celebrate the driving simulator's 15th anniversary where they are teasing "exciting announcements" about the future of the franchise.

“The Gran Turismo franchise continues to be extremely important to PlayStation,” explained Jim Ryan, president of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe. “We felt that 15 years of GT was an event worth celebrating along with our colleagues from the Americas, Asia and Japan. We are very grateful to our manufacturer partners for helping us to bring together a fantastic event. As well as experiencing the development of the game and comparing the virtual and real, it will be a pleasure to see Yamauchi-san and hear what’s next for Gran Turismo.”

If recent rumors are correct, what's next could be Gran Turismo 6 for the PlayStation 3. But you know what will really impress me? A PS4 version. The celebration for Gran Turismo will be held at the world-famous Silverstone Circuit in the UK on May 15, 2013.
