Mercedes-AMG GT launches in Driveclub on PlayStation 4
Just four weeks after its world premiere on 9 September 2014, the new Mercedes-AMG GT sports car will feature exclusively in Driveclub – Sony Computer Entertainment Europe’s next generation racing game only available on PlayStation 4. Driveclub will be available in Europe from 8 October 2014 and fans will be able to download the new AMG GT for free in the first week of launch.
Driveclub also features five other models from Mercedes-Benz’s high-performance brand: the A 45 AMG, the CLA 45 AMG, the C 63 AMG Coupe Black Series, the SL 65 AMG and the SLS AMG Coupe Black Series. Mercedes-Benz is supporting the launch of the game with a range of activities. The highlight of these is the “Journey of Stars”, a global online competition available in a variety of social networks. From 9 September to 9 October 2014, gamers can take part at www.journeyofstars.com and test themselves against their friends around the world. Each winner will receive a PlayStation 4 with the brand-new Driveclub game.
The AMG GT will be launched short after its world premiere in Driveclub. “The Mercedes-AMG GT is an outstanding sports car and we’re pleased to be able to offer it to gamers in Driveclub before it rolls off the production line.
It will be available as a free download within the first week of launch,” says Paul Rustchynsky, Game Director at Evolution Studios.
In addition to the online competition, gamers can also experience PlayStation 4 and Driveclub first hand in racing kiosks at selected Mercedes-Benz branches and events as well as at trade fairs.
