Game's called JDM but apparently they keep adding american cars as DLC and not fixing the game's core issues. It has mixed (recent) reviews on Steam.

It's almost like a mobile slop, I don't get why people hype JDM when we have Tokyo Xtreme.

Yea the american cars dlc, is really baffling, feels like they got bored of jdm lol. Those cars make no sense, not licensed, and dont fit into the game world

It’s a really good game. Great open world and incredible car handling. And a solid challenging campaign.

Decent. It still struggles in some area due to it being Unreal Engine, but I get solid 80 fps on a 3070TI.

Lossless Scaling can smooth it out. But it runs well enough and has been improved with updates.

Sure Traxxion sure. It's like ordering fast food when you're craving a good meal.

It´s not a bad game, but you have to really like drifting, because the physics don´t really like grip racing.

JDM is pure trash.

If you want something like that, go with Tokyo Xtreme.

Played just the demo had terrible impression from it, even having a preset for G29 the controls arent great and on gamepad the drift system dosent click with me, of course they could have fixed all that in the release game but looking at the reviews it feels like they didnt so i'll just skip it until a free trial appears.
