Buckle Up with DriveClub VR on 13th October

I really hope they do acknowledge season pass holders. I'd be happy with just a discount. This is one game I'm really looking forward to. I wonder how the immersion will be driving using a DS4 and without one of their rigs at their demos. Yes, I could by a steering wheel but it's not going to recreate the simulation they had going on.

So, I don't wanna buy the disc version then, right?

This is a totally separate purchase, and digital only? What is with these people and making DC digital only? They did the same thing at launch of the normal game too.

""It's been described by some major publications as the best virtual reality racing game period"",

Wow, thats a lot of competition anyways, I could care less about the VR version, just give me those track that you've been holding onto for the last year Sony.

@sub12 Driveclub is the best vr racing is amazing because the competition is on $1000+ pc and $600-800 vr device

I wonder if the normal game is going to get a 60 fps patch so that we have an option to have the vr graphics but 60 fps or the normal graphics at 30

@SKC_Diamond that's a good point, I still play driveclub - but it comes in bursts as the lower frame rate really puts me off, I also have a small amount of latency on my set up which really compounds the 30fps issue. I'm not getting vr, that said it can all change today if battlezone blows me away.

I know racing games will be good in VR but the view where I am driving within the car is the viewpoint I hate most in driving games.

Yeah, recently I bought season pass on top of other upgrades. I can imagine vr update ase free update but understand, that it cost a lot to make it work.

At least there should be difference between newcomers to driveclub and existing owners/season pass holders.

For 20 bucks its nobrainer, for 40 its too much.

So is this considered a new game, a VR update or what?

I trust that existing owners will get the update for free. They have already bought the game. It does not sound right to do another full payment to enable an extra feature (despite how wonderful it is) for the game they did buy.

@sinalefa I think it's Driveclub with VR support and all the originals dlc and some new content that'll come to both this and the original version.

@bimobazinga I read somewhere else this morning (and can't find it, though am sure it was on PSLS) that existing season pass holders will get a discount. So not free, but better than nowt. To be fair, I bought the full thing well after launch for basically naff all, so it's not the end of the world to me if I have to find 40 euros.

Ill be giving it a miss unless it can be added on as DLC to the base game. 40 quid for whats essentially nothing more than a tuned game engine to support VR is a no no for me.

I'm confused, didn't Sony close Evolution Studios? Whose doing the VR port? If this is coming from a completely different Dev, then they will need to show full price sales or face Evolution's fate.

@GamerDad66 Sony close evolution studio but codemasters pick it up, so now evolution studio is part of codemasters.

@GamerDad66

I'm pretty sure the work on Driveclub VR has been completed for sometime, at least the new tracks.........Sony probably just sat on it until PSVR could launch (it smells that way, considering nothing new came after the Japanese tracks and the one city track), despite the closure of Evolution.

I'd love to play F1 2016 on VR. That'd be crazy.
