In a recent PlayStation Blog, Nicco Orru of Sony Interactive announced that Driveclub is coming to the world of virtual reality with Driveclub VR. In production and under wraps for over a year now, Driveclub VR promises to bring a remarkable new level of immersive realism to the experience of driving. It's time to feel the speed.
According to Orru,
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.
He also detailed some of the game's features:
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: Every car is 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.
Driveclub VR will be available in October. For those lucky enough to be at Gamescom this week, you can get hands-on with the title at the Sony booth.
