Version 1.8.0 is now live!

Sup Drifters!

Update 1.8.0 is now available and brings with it a tonne of new content and features, including new parts, cars, and cross platform account linking from Mobile to PC!



[h3]Account Linking:[/h3]



You can now link a previously made Mobile Torque Drift account to your Torque Drift Steam account! This will move across all save files so that they are accessible to play on both devices!

To link your mobile with your PC accounts, log out on one device, then click ‘Link Account’ Follow the prompts on the other device that you would like to link!
Note: You can only link devices once! So make sure you do this process on the correct devices!
You can only link 1 Mobile device to 1 PC device. Save file merging is not currently supported.



[h3]New Parts:[/h3]

Ford GT



Luxury cars are not often seen on the drift track burning tires, with notable exception of Formula Drift Pro 1 Driver Federico Sceriffo in his 6.0-litre V12-engined Ferrari 599. Though if given the chance, I'm sure we would all be keen to get behind the wheel and get one sideways.

We’re excited to bring this incredible RWD Supercar into the game to see what you guys do with it!


Custom Wings from Big Country labs!



Adding custom wings have been on our agenda for some time now, and we’re pleased to announce the day is finally here! You can now enter the ‘Spoilers’ section of the part store from within the garage and choose from a selection of top or rear mounted BCL wings to customize your car with!

With adjustable wing angle (For more Downforce!) and strut distance on most wings, this new addition adds a new level of customisation to your whole garage.

Note: Wings are not only a visual upgrade, but they now hold the ‘Rear Down force’ stat which was previously on the bodykit. ‘Front Down force’ still remains as a tunable stat on the bodykit.

[h3]New BodyKit:[/h3]

370z Neo Samurai Calavera



One of Torque Drift’s artists Stefan TD: StefBear47 has created a fresh take on the 370z body kit and livery, drawing inspiration from the Mexican ‘Calavera’ Day of the dead Holiday.

Keeping in theme with both this update, and the Neo Samurai style, the kit is fitted with a massive wing.



[h3]New HD Interiors:[/h3]

This update brings with it a handful of new HD interiors which will unlock the interior drive camera on the cars above!



[h3]Wheel Support (Beta):[/h3]



We have opened up wheel support into a beta state with initial support for both the Logitech G920 and G29 Wheels.
Note: We are after lots of feedback on how these are feeling. The current state of the wheel support does not reflect what the final support will feel like. Support for all other major wheel manufacturers such as Fanatec and Thrustmasters is in development.



You can access the wheel mapping option from the control settings once you have connected your Logitech G920 and G29 wheel. There will also be an option in the bottom left to check input.



[h3]4-Player Local Split screen:[/h3]



You can now drift with your friends in the local freeroam 4 player split screen!
We’ve got big plans for 4-player split screen, with unique party game modes on the way. But for the time being, enjoy 4 player drift trains!
Accessible from the Practice tab in events, on any ‘FreeRoam’ layout.

For those of you that are eager to play online with more than 4 people on the track, don’t worry. Open lobbies are already in development and will be coming in the following months.
