JDM: Japanese Master Drift Set to Release May 21, With Fictional Prefecture and More

Poland’s Gaming Factory is set to launch its new game, JDM: Japanese Drift Master on May 21 2025. This all-new racing game transports players to Guntama, a fictional open-world Japanese prefecture. With over 250 km of main roads, it blends iconic landmarks and legendary car enthusiast spots into a breathtaking, immersive environment. From a recreated Himeji Castle to Guntama’s own version of the Daikoku parking area, there’s something for everyone to explore.

Immersive Story and Fully Licensed Cars

In the story, players will step into the shoes of Touma, a Polish driver determined to make a name for himself in the local street racing scene of Japan. The story later unfolds through in-game events and a beautifully crafted manga created by the internal art team of Gaming Factory. The art sets the stage for what lies ahead.

Players will have access to fully licensed Nissan, Mazda, and Subaru vehicles and every car in the game can be upgraded both mechanically and visually. The tuning system is designed to be intuitive and straightforward, but for those looking to push their vehicles to the limit, advanced parts can unlock fine-tuning options.

JDM: Japanese Drift Master is a simcade racer, blending a solid simulation foundation with arcade elements for an exciting and accessible driving experience. Every car handles uniquely on the road as players can feel the weight as they take corners or brake at high speeds. The team behind the game has focused on delivering driving physics that strike the perfect balance between realism and fun, making every race both thrilling and rewarding.

They are also continuously adding presets for various racing wheels and sim-driving hardware. Additionally, a fully customizable key binding system will allow players to configure virtually with any device connected to their PC, ensuring compatibility even for setups with no provided plug-and-play presets. This feature will be available from launch day. And for those using controllers or keyboards will have no reason to worry as the game is designed to be just as enjoyable as it is without a steering wheel.

For those interested in adding the game to their wishlist, JDM: Japanese Drift Master will be available on Steam, GoG and Epic Store. So be sure to mark your calendars this upcoming May! More information can be found on the game’s official website.
