Game Overview
Explore the birthplace of drift and dive into Japan’s iconic car culture!
JDM: Japanese Drift Master combines realistic, carefully-tuned physics in a simcade experience that’s as smooth on a controller as it is with sim racing hardware. Tackle hundreds of kilometers of open-world roads and uncover story-driven events and quests along the way. Hone your drifting skills, perfect grip races, take on challenges, and feel the thrill of authentic Japanese street racing.
Experience the automotive culture of Japan and discover the roads where drifting was born.
- Open world with hundreds of kilometers of content: Immerse yourself in the atmosphere of Japan with the fictional prefecture of Guntama, inspired by the region of Honshu. With over 250 km of visually stunning main roads, you’ll explore diverse landscapes featuring traffic, dynamic weather, and day-night cycle systems. Challenge your skills on winding mountain passes or drift through the city’s bustling streets.
- Customize licensed cars: The world of JDM would not be complete without a paint shop, where you can personalize your car in a truly Japanese style. Head to the tuner shop to unlock the full potential of the cars you’ve acquired from the dealership. Choose from licensed vehicles, including iconic brands like Mazda, Nissan, and Subaru.
- Drift in the most satisfying way: No matter what your favorite steering device is – gamepad, steering wheel, or keyboard – the simcade driving physics ensures an enjoyable experience. Hone your skills and dominate over a variety of events and subquests, including drift, grip and drag races, as well as drift battles and more.
- Get to know the story: Step into the shoes of a foreigner determined to make his mark on the Japanese drifting scene. Compete in 40+ narrative-driven events and additional sidequests against the top drifters in the area. Experience this journey through hand-drawn manga pages, which add a unique and artistic touch to the game.
- Listen to the whirr of the engine: Experience authentic car sounds, captured through original recordings and brought to life with attention to detail, making you feel like you’re truly behind the wheel. Cruise along picturesque roads while tuning in to genre-themed radio stations, and choose the perfect soundtrack for your drive.
