Driveclub PlayStation Plus edition held back as online servers struggle

If you’re wondering where your PlayStation Plus version of Driveclub is, it’s been held back.

The long-delayed PlayStation 4 racer launched yesterday in North America but only to gamers who’ve paid for it. The cut-down PS Plus edition of the title, which anyone subscribing to Sony’s online gaming service can download and play for free, hasn’t hit the PlayStation Store as intended. Game director Paul Rustchynsky, from developer Evolution Studios, took to Facebook this morning to explain that server problems are to blame. It’s an embarrassing start to life for Sony’s entry into this fall’s big driving game showdown.
