While we normally like to keep everyone in the Driveclub community up to speed on any developments, we’ve had to keep this one under the hood… until now. So before Gamescom 2016 kicks-off and you have the chance to get hands on with the game, we’re very proud to officially announce that Driveclub VR is launching in 2016 exclusively on PlayStation VR.

We’ve been working tirelessly on Driveclub VR for more than a year now, to bring you the definitive and most immersive Driveclub experience possible.

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.

• 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.

Be sure to also visit the PlayStation Gamescom booth to get the first hands on with Driveclub VR and check out the incredible new screenshots. Get ready to jump back behind that wheel!

Why are you posting 5 weeks old "news"?

I just added an article. Is the twitter news showing up now?

Awesome, I'll buy when I can get my hands on a headset.

If you own driveclub you get the vr version for free right?

No, it's a standalone VR game, but if you own Driveclub already you get all the additional VR tracks for free.

Sadly, but understandably, that will not be the case. Why sell a vr edtion if can go and buy a regular edition that does the same for cheap, a new edition always means it's more than vanilla and if you want that more it will cost you. What they could do is offer a upgrade option for those that already have vanilla. 

Does VR mode extend to the bikes?
It might be a bit too intense I guess, first person on the bikes is already sickening without VR.

I think it would be less sickening, since it would feel more natural, you can better adjust yourself and don't feel like being at the mercy of a go pro camera ride. However, i guess it would still feel wrong, because you're sitting in a chair, not on something like...

Now all you need is a big powerful fan blowing in on your face.
