Online servers for Driveclub, Driveclub VR, and Driveclub Bikes will shut down on March 31, 2020 at 23:59 BST. All online features (including online multiplayer modes) will cease on that date. You will still be able to play and enjoy these games in single player offline modes. However, the games have significant amounts of online gameplay, so from March 31, 2020, functionality will be affected in the following ways:

You will not be able to:

  • Use your season pass online.
  • Represent your Club online in multiplayer events or tours.
  • Play online multiplayer and compete in challenges.
  • Create your own events.
  • Compete in leader boards, or share stats and player progress.
You will be able to:

  • Use your season pass on all single player and offline modes.
  • Continue to play all game (Driveclub, Driveclub VR, and Driveclub Bikes) and DLC single player functionality in offline mode.
  • Earn trophies in single player / offline mode.

I just want to really drive this point home:

There is no complete version of Driveclub on disc. Most of what the game offers (and it's best parts) are digital only. And it's Playstation exclusive. Which means, in August 31st you will no longer be able to own a complete version of Driveclub. And that if you were to buy the game on disc, you would get an incomplete, worst version of the game.

Driveclub had it's shares of problems when it came out. but it's a real tragic story... cause once the ball started really rolling, that game was pretty awesome. Looks gorgeous, plays well, has a lot of content and received a decent amount of support over it's life span. It went out alongside the studio that made it... and it's not set to fade into oblivion completely.

It's a real shame we will never get a Full Edition on disc, but here is your warning... if you don't have the DLC yet, consider it now or keep an eye out for discounts. They could be coming and they are worth it.
