The 10 Best Driving Games to Chill Out With

If we’re talking about recent experiences, for my money nothing touches Driveclub, the multiplayer-focused first-party PS4 racer than hit the scene in 2013 and regretfully never received a successor. Sure, Driveclub is half the game it was then now that its servers are down. But still there’s nothing stopping you from snagging a physical copy and coasting through Lytton, Hurrungane, Nakasendo or The Kyle by yourself, which was always secretly the best thing about Driveclub. It’ll make you feel like you’re in a car ad, or one of those many episodes of Top Gear scoping out the world’s greatest driving roads. Turn on the dynamic weather and time-of-day change, fire up your favorite driving playlist on Spotify and enjoy some of the greatest track design the genre has or will ever see.

How to play it now: Sadly, Driveclub and all of its downloadable content vanished from Sony’s digital storefront in 2020. However, if you didn’t manage to buy it off the PlayStation Store before then, physical copies are still out there and can be played on PS4 or a PS5 equipped with a disc drive.
