'Gran Turismo 7' Credit Hunt
Note that players, at any time, can purchase in-game credits to prevent themselves from the hassle of game grinding.
The most basic way of earning credits is through playing the game itself. Just like that, players got themselves some sort of slow resource of credits that is not going to disappear soon.
Players can gather their credits after playing the Roulette mini-game. As its name suggests, it is a source of credit based on the player's luck, or the scientific side - on probability.
Apart from that probable source, players should finish the "Grand Turismo's" Cup Gr.4 Race at Japan's High-Speed ring. It flaunts a certain big number of credits. The seven minutes of driving can give the player as much as 97500 credits - being the first player in the race will automatically give the player 65,000 credits having a 50% Clean Race bonus totaling the said amount.
It might be too easy to earn credits if that is always the case. However, it is not. Once you enter "Gran Turismo's" racing experience, the players will have to complete preliminaries after preliminaries. So before the player gets to partake in the said race, the menu book for No.4 Luca should be unlocked firsthand. Otherwise, the player should have to endure different races first before this one.
