Evolution Studios confirms the many different things to appear in its Driveclub racing experience next week, in the form of update 1.12, which brings the long-awaited Replay system, not to mention changes to the Drift mode, or the addition of the Ferrari 599XX Evoluzione as a level 50 reward.

Driveclub launched back in October last year and developer Evolution Studios had to release a wide array of updates, in order to fix the many multiplayer issues that plagued the racing game and affected its promised "social" experience.

Patch 1.12 for Driveclub debuts next week

Fortunately, things are much better nowadays and the game is stable and fun on the PS4. With the upcoming patch 1.12, which is set to debut next week, Evolution wants to make things even more fun for all those who own the title on the Sony home console.

Many new things are included in the update 1.12 for Driveclub, according to the official Facebook, starting with the replay mode. It allows players to save a replay when finishing a race and then view it once again in the dedicated section. Of course, you can still use the Photo mode option to capture great screenshots when viewing replays.

Players will also be able to get a new reward when reaching driver level 50, in the form of the Ferrari 599XX Evoluzione, and they'll soon experience a revised drift mode scoring system that offers more points for momentum, control, and staying on the track.

The Driveclub social hub now offers status information about friends, and the title now supports live streaming via Twitch or Ustream while in the multiplayer mode. Those who love the atmospheric visual effects will now enjoy better heathaze effects and all-new mirages, which are visible on the road when light is refracted by hot air.

The new patch 1.12 for Driveclub also brings support for the upcoming downloadable content that ranges from the free Peugeot Onyx Concept, the premium Lamborghini Expansion pack, as well as the premium Pacesetter Tour pack, which includes new events and trophies.
