In other news, Sony were awfully silent regarding their November PlayStation Plus Instant Game Collection, which was leaked through an official video (later made private). Sony did confirm 3 of the games in an email sent to its users, which contained the news of the Binding of Isaac: Rebirth, Hungry Horde and Frozen Synpase Prime coming to the PS+ IGC. It strangely lacked the rest of the games including Luftrausers, Escape Plan and Steamworld Dig. Sid Shuman confirmed that the official announcement is due soon, although he didn’t give any update on the status of DriveClub PS+ edition.

PS Plus details are coming soon – stay tuned.

No update to share yet on Driveclub PS Plus Edition timing, unfortunately. We’ll keep you up to date as soon as we have new info.
