In an article we published earlier this week regarding a detailed description of what PlayStation Plus members can expect from DRIVECLUB PS Plus Edition. There was a section in the post that described how PlayStation Plus members will be able to get the demo for free, but if they wanted to upgrade to the full DRIVECLUB package then a $50 dollar payment was required which is less than the RRP of $60 as long as they kept their PlayStation Plus membership active.

This news did not go down very well as PlayStation's Community took to social networks to voice their opinions regarding these terms. Since then Sony has taking these opinions into consideration reversing DRIVECLUB's PlayStation Plus Edition upgrade price plan terms and conditions. You can read the original article HERE.



This is Sony's response below: 

UPDATE: Our number one priority for DRIVECLUB is to allow you to play and enjoy everything the game has to offer and PlayStation acknowledges  that the prior plan for DRIVECLUB entitlement for the upgrade to the PlayStation Plus edition was not appropriate. As a result, we've adjusted the PlayStation Plus terms and conditions for DRIVECLUB.

Now, If you intend on downloading DRIVECLUB PS Plus Edition, and upgrading to the full game experience, you will have full access to the complete game even if your PlayStation Plus membership subscription runs out.

Our Thoughts . . .

We think Sony's decision to reverse these terms is great and it shows why it is important to always make your concerns heard as it can and does make a difference. What do you think? Voice your opinions and be heard in our comments below.
