JDM: Japanese Drift Master

JDM: Japanese Drift Master is a debut open-world racing simulation from developer Gaming Factory. The world spans 250 kilometers of the fictional Guntama prefecture, incorporating Tōge mountain passes, rural roads, and urban streets. Drivers navigate these environments under a dynamic weather system and day-night cycle. A story-driven campaign follows a foreign racer through 40 narrative events, using hand-drawn manga illustrations for plot progression.

Technical gameplay centers on two switchable driving models: Arcade for beginner-friendly handling and Simcade for assist-free, technical drifting. The roster includes licensed vehicles from Nissan, Honda, Subaru, and Mazda. Mechanical customization covers gear ratios, suspension settings, and wheel camber, while visual options include full body kits and underglow. Authentic engine recordings and genre-specific radio stations provide the auditory backdrop for this tribute to Japanese car culture.
