Driveclub VR Officially And 'Proudly Confirmed' For PlayStation VR, Out In 2016
That rumoured Driveclub project for virtual reality? It's totally happening and isn't just some fancy tech demo showing what could be. Driveclub VR has been officially confirmed.
The development team has been "working tirelessly" for a year on the special VR capable racer, which is unsurprisingly an exclusive PlayStation VR title.
"We’re passionate about trying to create the most memorable and exhilarating gaming experiences possible, so being given the opportunity to take Driveclub to a more immersive level thanks to VR is really thrilling."
"This not only allows players to truly feel the incredible speed, sensation, and precision of driving some of the world’s most exotic high-performance cars, but also the chance to race against or with one another in a completely new way," posted Nico Orru of SIE Immersive Technology on the PlayStation.Blog.
Driveclub VR feature highlights:
• Game modes: Online virtual reality multiplayer race modes and an action-packed single player career are joined by drifting and time trial challenges.
• Tracks: New and classic Driveclub tracks are brought to life through the power of PlayStation VR, including five all-new Urban locations.
• A closer look: More than 80 cars are recreated with immaculate detail for players to explore up close with Inspection Mode.
• Cruise control: A little time to kick back, open the throttle or just coast and explore any track, in any country at your leisure in Cruise Mode.
• Virtual passenger: An immersive thrill ride through exciting replays of hot laps as players watch themselves handle their greatest challenges from a unique viewpoint in Passenger Mode.
For those attending Gamescom in Cologne, Germany this week then you can get the chance to try out Driveclub VR in person at the PlayStation Gamescom booth.
Driveclub VR releases on PlayStation 4 later this year.
