Description
JDM Japanese Drift Master is an open-world, story-driven homage to Japanese street racing culture and drift. Drive through mountainous tōge serpentines, narrow rural roads, and vast highways leading to a modern cityscape.
Open World
Explore the fictional prefecture of Guntama, created by mixing real-life locations from across Japan. Drive over 250 km of main roads, mountain passes, rural areas, and city streets featuring traffic, dynamic weather, and a day-night cycle.
Licensed Cars and Tuning
Sit behind the wheel of licensed Nissan, Honda, Subaru, and Mazda cars. Upgrade them mechanically and fine-tune details like suspension, wheel camber, and gear ratios. Visual options include full body kit swaps, hoods, lights, underglow, and a free color palette.
Driving Models
Designed primarily for gamepads, JDM offers two driving models you can switch between at any time. Arcade mode is suited for beginners and a relaxed experience, while Simcade mode turns off all assists for full control and higher skill requirements.
Story-Driven Campaign
Play as a foreigner determined to make his mark on the Japanese drifting scene. Compete in over 40 narrative events and sidequests against top local drifters, experienced through hand-drawn manga pages.
Authentic Audio and Eurobeat Vibes
Listen to real engine sounds captured through original recordings. Cruise the roads with genre-themed radio stations featuring J-Music, Phonk, Eurobeat, and more.
Hardware Support
The game supports Logitech, Thrustmaster, and Fanatec steering wheels.
Multiplayer
Explore the prefecture of Guntama with up to 8 players in a lobby. Cruise together, organize car meets, or compete in multiplayer drift battles, grip races, and 1v1 touge challenges across the open world.
