Overview
Notes
Final words
The goal of this thread is share the profile data extracted from www.gran-turismo.com to show how the users playing the game are divided across the globe.
Notes
- All the data were extracted from the API URL https://www.gran-turismo.com/us/api/gt7sp/profile/ (yeap GTS is called GT7SP internally) where I made a basic POST call calling Job 1 that returns 4 data: psn_id, status, profile number and country.
- I use the most basic call to get the data called Job 1. There are others Jobs that returns more data like hours player, cars owned, races won, etc... all activity data can be extracted.
- There are others sites with similar data but they just extracted 10% of the base and extrapolated to get the full picture. My data will divert from them a lot because mine is exactly what you have on GTS site without any extrapolation or estimations.
- Status are divided in two numbers: 1 - Profile that played GTS final game and 2 - Profile that played only the Beta. If a profile with status 2 (Beta only) play the game today then it changed to status 1. I will try to track these Beta only profiles to see if they changed to 1 regularly.
- Some profiles numbers can't be extracted because the API returns error while the GTS site works fine, it is about 700 profiles that I will try to cover manually in the future.
- The country is determined by the PSN location (I'm from Brasil but my PSN is US so I'm counted in US numbers).
- Profiles are PSN users that played the game and not game sales. Used games and family sharing can increase that number even when you had only one copy sold.
- All the data extracted can be checked in this csv file (comma separated values): https://1drv.ms/u/s!AsRlMSDzwvw8g3OPhbR6SzdjVjqq
- I will try to update the file and thread at least once per week. That way you will know how many profiles where created in GTS since the last time.
- Latest profile number: 7294381
- Total profiles: 6,293,525
- Total GTS profiles: 5,656,841
- Total Beta only profiles: 636,684 * Beta profiles turn in GTS profiles after play the final game

The extraction took a bit more days than I expected but I'm happy that I could finish it.
Any question or suggestion?
You can compare the data with know sales in some countries... I think the numbers are pretty close if you estimate digital and/or accounts the fact some users buys a game in a country but play it with a PSN ID from another country.
