GT5 Jaguar gameplay footage lives Kaz fantasy

xj13

Some new gameplay footage of GT5 has popped up, showing what it’s like to get being the wheel of the Jaguar XJ13.

We know what your thinking: if we had a pound for every time some new GT5 footage appeared we could probably have bought a VG247-branded Jaguar XJ13 and set off on a journey to Polyphony Digital to personally collect a copy of the game.

This is a special one, though. The XJ13 never raced, and dev lead Kazunori Yamauchi put it into the game to allow players to live out a 60s show-down between the Jaguar, the Ferrari 230 E4 and the Ford GT MKIV. Get more detail on that here.

The car is seen going around the beautifully recreated Nordshleife track with Nose, In-Car and Chase cams all on show.

Check it out below.

GT5 is out November 2 in the US and November 3 in the UK and Europe.

Thanks, RSC.

Very nice. A bit of Dire Straits in the background, too. Tasty.

They’ve nailed the sense of speed by the looks of things.

i thought recenzeher was banned? That looks fantastic but i’ve never been a fan of the GT series tbh, however i can see this game is really pushing the boat out graphics wise and i’m sure there will alot to do ‘career’ wise too.

OlderGamer,

Obviously this isn’t the finished build but there are over I believe 100 cars with authentic full interiors and complete damage. I could be wrong on the damage number but there is definitely damage in this game if the “problem” you’re addressing is in fact the lack of damage. GT5 is going to slay every other driving simulator out there and that’s the bottom line.

If memory serves me right PGR4 had damage as well.
I remember putting it on and promptly putting it off again. :)
Man it made it tough.
