Not sure if this has been mentioned elsewhere, but it looks like that all new Tracks (as opposed to Cars/Tour events) for DriveClub will be free to download .  Have to say, I'm liking this approach (a la KZ:SF's all maps are free), a great way of keeping communities together .

DRIVECLUB Gameplay Reveal 2015: Japan Goshodaira & McLaren 650S

Quote

5 free tracks are coming to #DRIVECLUB tomorrow with the all-new Japan location, so let's get fired up with one last gameplay preview: here's Goshodaira.

This breath-taking point-to-point is perfect for us to take the new McLaren 650S out for a little test drive. We're getting ready to add this car to the PlayStation Store as part of the Apex Expansion Pack, coming Jan 27-29.

So now that you've seen all 5 of the new tracks in Japan, which are you going to play first?

Damn they look good, cheers for the news Spec .  As you can probably tell from the lack of new pics in the screenshot thread, haven't quite been 'DriveClub rated' the last couple of weeks - hope I can get some time in on the weekend maybe, it's a mighty, mighty fine game.  Think delaying the PS+ edition sensible, by the time the masses get their hands on it, it's likely to be even better and polished to boot .
