First person perspective has been shown as a common feature in DRIVECLUB.
On foot[]
It has been shown that when on foot a player can inspect the engine of their selected vehicle. Footage has shown a Koenigsegg Agera R with its rear body section opened up, showing the engine. The player was then shown holding on to a strengthening crossbar with their right hand. However, this feature has now been downgraded to a cutscene that is displayed before starting a racing event. The cutscene shows the player stepping into their selected vehicle and then is followed by cinematic camera angles of the car.
Driving[]
It has also been shown that players can drive their vehicles in first-person perspective, This view gives a player the view of;
- Steering wheel and the vehicle's HUD
- Centre console
- Surroundings (able to rotate through a 180 degree field of view)
This camera view had been used by Evolution Studios to show off some neat features such as the ability to turn on a car and also the accuracy of the gear shifting animation; the Agera R's paddle shifters were shown as being used in a life-like manner. The cockpit view car of the car allows players to immerse themselves in a more realistic racing experience because of each vehicle's detailed interior and unique engine sounds.
