Forums - Gaming - Driveclub Relaunch In January?

They could always just re-release the game as "Driveclub: Complete Edition" once all DLCs and features are out. Make it $39.99 with some good advertising and a properly working online and Sony/Evo could have a 2nd chance at selling this great racing game.

DriveClub at No5



No way. It is too early. Replay mode is still not there I think. They will and should do it after some 6months will all the DLC and hopefully more updates. Game is selling well already inspite of some harsh reviews

Its too late. The game's reputation is already ruined.

You are so far out with this I can only guess this is the only site you visit. This updated review represents the new hype around Driveclub:

Of course I know some reviews are being adjusted up but that won't change much. The game had way too many problems when it released for over a month, and got lots of negative coverage by gaming sites.

Then explain why it's shooting up the software charts.

Better reviews will help for a bit but won't do much. The game will never sell as much as it could have if there were no problems and I doubt they will make a sequel.

I'd call that shifting goal posts slightly. I've not suggested it will sell as many as it could have sold if it was working perfectly and included these additions at launch. In fact, sales figures are not really part of my thinking, just the potential of having a game for January to help springboard the momentum The Order and then Bloodborne and sure to create. Driveclub is a respected franchise and there will definitely be a follow up. Only someone following the rather shallow narrative the reviewers tried to promote would think otherwise.

Which countries is Driveclub doing well in? In the UK is bundled a lot so that's why its high in the charts. 

I doubt there would be a sequel. There was lots of negativity around the game. 1 year late and still broken. And then it took over a month to fix. Considering Driveclub is a brand new game, I doubt they will make a sequel. Its easier for Sony to just start with something new.

This, along with a couple of marketing trailers showing the new features.

I showed a couple of friends the video of the weather feature and they were mind blown.

Yeah, that's what they should do.
