About this gameFull description from Steam
A new entry in the CarX Drift Racing series features a real competition format and a judging system of modern drift championships. Physics The new realistic physics and tire model are a perfect fit for steering wheel setups and other game controllers. To prepare for multiplayer tournaments, you will progress from a beginner drift racer to a professional pilot, competing in world drift series. Multiplayer Duels, TOP 32 and freeride in online rooms. Skill-based matchmaking and a rating system in online events for your comfortable experience. For us, drift is primarily a sport. To launch a series of esport tournaments around the world is the primary goal of this project. Customization An advanced tuning system and customization. Suspension, gearbox, ECU, and other important parts of a racecar are upgradeable, tunable, and finely customizable. The damage system adds an extra layer of realism and immersion. Losing a bumper during a close call or leaving dents in a leader’s door is now possible! Locations The game features laser-scanned licenced tracks: Ebisu Circuit, Fuji Speedway & Gunma Cycle Sports Center in Japan, Nürburgring Nordschleife in Germany, Dominion Raceway in USA & ADM Raceway in Russia. Career You will start your drifting career in the drift school, learning the basics and mastering advanced drift control. In Career mode, you’ll rise through the ranks - from local street contests to elite world championships. Compete in racing series, dominate championships, secure sponsorships, and fine-tune your cars to meet regulations. Most importantly, prepare yourself for the ultimate challenge - drifting online! Controllers We support most of steering wheels, gear shifters, gamepads, and other common controllers, available on the market, but we can always add more, the work’s not done yet.
