The much-anticipated release of JDM Japanese Drift Master on Steam, originally set for March 2025, has been postponed. Just weeks before its planned debut, the developers announced that the game will now launch on May 21, 2025. This decision to delay the release comes with a commitment to using the extra time to refine and enhance the game, ensuring it meets the high expectations of its eager fanbase.
Alongside the announcement, the team released a new gameplay teaser that showcases the progress made so far. The teaser emphasizes the game's dedication to authentic Japanese drift culture, featuring meticulously detailed car models, immersive environments, and smooth drifting mechanics. While the delay might be disappointing for fans, the teaser offers a promising look at how the additional development time will contribute to a superior final product.
In their statement, the developers expressed their dedication to delivering an exceptional gaming experience:
"We want to ensure that JDM Japanese Drift Master lives up to the excitement and anticipation you’ve shown," they explained. "The additional time will allow us to polish every aspect of the game and make it truly special."
Players will need to wait a bit longer to experience the thrill of drifting in their favorite machines. However, the promise of a more polished and feature-rich game suggests that this delay is a necessary step toward realizing the game's full potential.
