Whats' up, drivers!

Players can fine-tune these systems to their liking, with parameter changes directly affecting performance.[/p][h2]Exterior & Interior Customization[/h2][p]Cars are now more detailed inside and out. The game will feature both “stock” and “modified” elements. Any part can be removed or mixed with pieces from other kits - the whole system is fully modular. We also plan to greatly expand interior customization, up to removing individual interior components.[/p][h3]Add the game to your wishlist and follow us on social media to stay up to date with all the news!

Welcome!

What's up drivers!
Welcome to the official CarX Drift Racing Online 2 community hub!


The time has come to share a bit more about our upcoming game.

A continuation of the legendary CarX Drift Racing Online, this new chapter in the series features updated physics and an updated tire model, delivering an even deeper and more immersive gameplay experience — no matter what controller you use, from a steering wheel to a keyboard.

In CarX Drift Racing Online 2, we have decided to focus on the competitive side of drifting: ranked duels, Top 32 tournaments, and free runs — all these game modes are designed to prepare players for real esports competitions and tournaments.

The single-player campaign has been completely changed compared to the first game: players will experience a full career progression, starting as rookie drifters and rising to professional drivers, competing at some of the most legendary drift locations around the world.

A vehicle damage system, integrated for the first time into our PC/console games, will not only bring new driving sensations but will also make mistakes cost more during races.

According to our current estimates, CarX Drift Racing Online 2 will launch in Early Access in Q4 of this year, with regular content updates throughout the Early Access period. The console version of the game will become available later — next year.

We’ll be sharing more detailed information about the game’s features and content, updated gameplay mechanics, development status updates, and future plans.
