Sony is “postponing the release of [DriveClub] PS Plus Edition until further notice”, worldwide studios president Shuhei Yoshida has announced.
In an update on the game’s Facebook page, Yoshida admitted that “the road to [the game’s] launch has been a little rocky, and we are truly sorry that so many of you have not been able to enjoy everything that we had hoped DRIVECLUB would deliver.
“We have been listening to your feedback and realize that patience understandably is running out,” he continued. “Evo is working around the clock to close the gap, and we have deployed additional engineering resources to help resolve the remaining issues as soon as possible. Unfortunately, the time frames required to roll out the fully connected experience will be longer than anticipated and we do not have an exact time frame for when they will be resolved. We will continue to update you on progress and you can find the latest info on the DRIVECLUB Facebook page.
“We are also very conscious that we have disappointed so many of you who were looking forward to playing the promised PS Plus Edition. Our first priority is to provide you with the best possible experience while playing DRIVECLUB. With the high volume of new players and additional server load the PS Plus Edition is anticipated to bring, we are currently not confident that we can guarantee the best online experience. Until we can ensure that everyone can enjoy the full social connected online experience, we will be postponing the release of the PS Plus Edition until further notice.”
Yoshida thanked players for their “continued support and encouragement” and said that Sony was “sincerely” sorry for the delay.
“We are committed to giving you the best racing experience on PS4 – it’s taking a little longer than we hoped,” he said.
DriveClub: PS Plus Edition had been due to go live at the game’s launch on October 7, but was delayed due to unforeseen problems with the game’s server code.
Last week, a UK law specialist suggested that the game’s broken online component “may be considered a breach of the [Sales of Goods] Act”.
