Driveclub remains one of the most visually stunning racing games on the PlayStation 4, yet its premature delisting and server shutdown left many fans stranded. Today, preservationists and homebrew enthusiasts rely on Package (PKG) files and custom fixes to keep the game alive on jailbroken consoles.
Released in 2014, Evolution Studios’ Driveclub remains one of the most visually stunning racing games on the PlayStation 4. Despite its breathtaking weather effects and tight handling, Sony delisted the game from the PlayStation Network (PSN) in 2019 and shut down its multiplayer servers in 2020.
If the game hangs infinitely on the initial loading screen, your PS4 firmware may be lower than the firmware required by the update PKG. You will need to look for a designed specifically for your firmware version (e.g., a 5.05/6.72 backport for a v1.28 update). DLC Content is Locked (Padlock Icon)
The is more than just a file; it’s a way for racing enthusiasts to preserve one of the most atmospheric racers ever made. By correctly matching your Region IDs and applying the 1.28 update alongside a license fix, you can continue to enjoy the rain-slicked tracks of Scotland and Norway indefinitely.
Transfer the main Driveclub PKG to your PS4 (via USB or FTP) and install it using the Package Installer. Do not launch the game yet.
