Early Access roadmap

An important note first: the roadmap doesn’t mention release dates for the upcoming content, because as a small team working full remote it’s almost impossible for us to predict how long it will take for larger features. For details on the progress on each individual feature, please check on our socials.

We will consider Early Access over when all the content listed below is added in the game. The game price will slightly raise halfway through the Early Access phase, and then one last time when the Early Access is over. Depending on the success of the game, new content will be added after the Early Access phase too.

  • Multiplayer free ride
  • Multiplayer custom race

Three popular Japanese Domestic Market cars, each in Standard and Drift version. These cars will slide naturally, but the Drift versions will be especially tuned for drifting, with higher torque.

A set of winding roads across Japanese mountains inspired by iconic Togue locations, with a parking on top and a small village on the lower area, crossed by a freeway segment.
