Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
About
JDM: Japanese Drift Master is an homage to Japan, Japanese street racing culture and drift. It’s an open world, story-driven experience, blending Tōge (mountainous) serpentines, with narrow rural roads and vast highways leading to a modern cityscape. With licensed cars and robust tuning options it’s a drifting paradise come true!

Driving Models
Designed primarily for gamepads, JDM boasts two driving models to choose from: Arcade, suited for a more relaxed experience and drift beginners; and Simcade in which all assists are off, trading full control over the car for more skill requirements to manage drifting. Players can switch between both models at any time during the game.
Open World
Soak in the atmosphere of Japan with the fictional prefecture of Guntama, created through mixing real-life locations from all over the country. With over 250 km of visually stunning main roads, standalone racing tracks and instanced events, set across winding mountain passes, rural areas and the city's bustling streets, you’ll explore diverse landscapes featuring traffic, dynamic weather, and day-night cycle systems.
Licensed Cars
Sit behind the wheel of legendary Nissan, Honda, Subaru and Mazda cars. Tune them mechanically with new parts and then fine tune the details. Experiment with visual parts: from hoods, through lights to full body kit swaps. Adjust the suspension, wheel camber, gear ratios and more. Finally, paint the car however you like using a free pick color palette. You want underglow? It’s at your disposal as well.
Story-driven Campaign
Step into the shoes of a foreigner determined to make his mark on the Japanese drifting scene. Compete in 40+ narrative-driven events and additional sidequests against the top drifters in the area. Experience this journey through hand-drawn manga pages, which add a unique and artistic touch to the game.
The Audio Purr
Experience authentic car sounds, captured through original recordings and brought to life with attention to detail, making you feel like you're truly behind the wheel. Cruise along picturesque roads while tuning in to genre-themed radio stations, including unique soundscapes of J-music, Phonk and even Eurobeat - choose the perfect soundtrack for your drive!
Multiplayer
Explore the prefecture of Guntama with up to 8 players in a lobby. Cruise together, organize car meets, or compete in multiplayer drift battles, grip races, and 1v1 touge challenges across the open world.

very disappointed with the so called physic, cant even control the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ car.
Во первых в игре кривой UI, карта уродская низкого качества, поиск пути работает с очень долгими задержками, некоторые кнопки в меню не работают, я лично столкнулся такой проблемой, что при попытке смены управления игра просто не принимала ввод с клавиатуры не распознавая его. Во вторых в этой игре имеется ряд крайне сомнительных геймдизейнерских решений, которые проистекают один из другого, прочувствовать это можно только поиграв в игру. Мне лично не вкатило то что в игре которая является аркадой, разрабы по какойто причине решили сделать улицы максимально узкими, НУ В ЯПОНИИ ЖЕ ТАК, из за чего я прстоянно еб**шился об бортики дороги так будто моя машина это шайба, избежать такого эффекта было крайне сложно так как это не симуляор, а аркада, а в аркадных гонках машины обычно очень быстро набирают скорость. Основной задачей в игре является дрифт, как можно понять из названия и нет он не сбрасывается при лёгком столкновении с чемто, но так как сама игра очень кривая, лёгких столкновений просто нет, порой очень сильный удар не оказывает никакого влияния, а вот если ты чуть чуть заехал за пределы дороги можешь улететь в космос, причина по которой это происходит мне не известна. на это накладываются дурацкие правила из разряда если ты столкнулся с противником во время дрифта(даже если это он в тебя вьехал) тебя дисквалифицируют, по сути рестарт, игра безумно кривая и я сильно сомневаюсь что это хоть ктото будет фиксить, зато длц продают, машинки там, на них поглядеть можно. Визуально иногда красиво, геймплей 2/10, баги 11/10, сюжет не знаю не читал

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Aug 22: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 3/day in the week to Jul 30 → 7.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Je l'ai acheté après avoir vu le test de Sylvain Lyve. Et comme tout bon iencli de ce qui est japonais sakura, drift kawaii la meuf avec les oreilles de chat... Bah j'ai acheté... Bon, plus serieusement, la prise en main est pas évidente au début. Vous pouvez etre déçu de pas avoir la sensation que vous vouliez a la base. Il vous faudra une dizaine d'heure, (je pense) pour trouver un véhicule qui vous plait et avoir la possibilité de taper des drifts comme ton voisin essaye de les faire avec ça golf 4 tunning. Graphiquement pas au point de faire gicler dans le slip mais c'est quand meme agréable de pouvoir se balader dans un semblant de japon imaginé par les russes (oui vraiment). Cependant je le recommande, parce que si t'as besoin d'une bonne dose de Nipponnerie t'as trouvé ce qu'il te faut.
I played with Simcade settings on a Gamepad: Its not a perfect game, but it is still fun!
its nice they listen to the people and give them what they want!
Japanese Drift Master. J’ai acheté ce jeu parce que j’adore le Japon. Là-dessus je n’ai pas été déçu car, même si les graphismes ne sont pas photoréalistes, j’avais l’impression de m’y retrouver. J’aime bien les jeux de course de voiture. En revanche, le drift me laisse indifférent. Pourtant, je me suis surpris à apprécier de faire glisser mes voitures. D’autant qu’il y a quelques courses classiques et de drag. A noter que ce jeu a été fait par des gens tout aussi amoureux du Japon que moi. Ils ont été jusqu’à illustrer l’histoire par un manga. Jusqu’au générique de fin, on sent leur passion et l’amour du travail bien fait. Dernier bon point : Un choix de voitures satisfaisant, avec du tuning. Seul bémol : pas de vinyles pour les personnaliser. Conclusion : laissez-vous envoûter par les paysages japonais et l’exotisme de leurs villes et villages.
as someone who drifts in real life and likes to sim drift when not drifting in real life I cannot recommend this game unless you use controller. I was very disappointed when I tried to use my sim setup to drift on this game and it feels wrong in just about everyway. While yes there is wheel "support" its wheel physics are really muddy and make Forza horizon look like assetto corsa.
absolute garbage
Alright game but things need big improvements and the map is just boring & small
No 180sx. I could say more about this
