  • Graphics are stunning and photorealistic, with detailed car models and tracks, leveraging Unreal Engine 5 features like ray tracing and DLSS.
  • Driving and drifting physics provide a satisfying experience that balances between arcade and simulation, rewarding skill and tuning.
  • Extensive car customization options including licensed parts, tuning depth, and visual mods allow personal expression and detailed builds.
  • The game suffers from poor optimization causing performance issues and instability on a range of hardware, including frequent crashes and frame drops.
  • Progression is slow and grinding for in-game currency is tedious, with some features locked behind paywalls and DLC making it feel like pay-to-win.
  • Multiplayer and UI features are incomplete or buggy, including login problems, limited multiplayer lobbies, lack of replay mode, and poor controller/wheel support.

    The game boasts stunning, next-gen, photorealistic graphics powered by Unreal Engine 5, with highly detailed car models and environments praised by many users. However, the demanding visuals often require high-end hardware for smooth performance, leading to optimization issues and graphical bugs, especially on mid- to low-spec systems. Despite occasional performance hiccups and early access polish concerns, the graphics remain a standout feature that significantly enhances immersion and visual appeal.

    • “The graphics are simply jaw-dropping.”
    • “Graphics: this is almost one of the main features of TD2, ultra-realism thanks to the UE5 engine, ray tracing and Lumen are present, as well as DLSS, which allows you to get an awesome picture.”
    • “The game's visuals are also top-notch, with beautifully rendered environments and incredibly detailed car models.”
    • “Unfortunate choice of unreal engine, which prioritizes visual fidelity over optimization, sends this game into the new generation of games with overdemanding graphics, requiring non-high end systems to sacrifice visuals too much to achieve a somewhat playable experience (5600h 3060 oc at 40-80 fps with everything on low, visuals completely sacrificed to the point where the previous would look better and offer better performance in some cases).”
    • “A bunch of graphics optimisation still needs to be done, as my 4070 sometimes struggles to keep up on medium graphics QHD.”
    • “On top of this, there are weird graphical bugs and lag that happen on solo missions with even a decent PC, that I strongly do not recommend purchasing it.”

  • optimization

    53 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    15% positive mentions, 66% neutral mentions, 19% negative mentions

    Optimization remains a significant issue for this game, with many users reporting performance struggles even on high-end PCs, largely due to Unreal Engine 5's demanding visuals. While recent updates have improved performance somewhat, the game still requires substantial optimization, especially for mid- to low-spec systems, before it can run smoothly without sacrificing visual quality. As it is still in early access, users remain hopeful for continued improvements in optimization.

    • “Most recent update improves most if not all the performance issues.”
    • “Although it's getting optimized through development, I tested it on an i5-12400f, 32GB 5200 RAM, and RX6800XT 16GB, getting 30-45 FPS on epic settings at 1440p without frame generation. Frame generation and upscaling options can nearly double FPS, making it nicely playable aside from some ghosting and graininess.”
    • “After updating to v0.14, I can say good job with the optimization, especially in Ebisu. There are still some missing details like no piping on the intercooler, but hopefully that will be fixed in the next update.”
    • “This game is poorly optimized; can't even buy any of the bundles for the formula drift cars if you want to support Adam LZ or have been watching such YouTubers or even Vaughn Gittin Jr. Useless game for 20 dollars, don't recommend.”
    • “Unfortunate choice of Unreal Engine, which prioritizes visual fidelity over optimization, sends this game into the new generation of games with overdemanding graphics, requiring non-high-end systems to sacrifice visuals too much to achieve a somewhat playable experience (5600H 3060 OC at 40-80 fps with everything on low, visuals completely sacrificed to the point where the previous would look better and offer better performance in some cases).”
    • “I've seen this game a year ago while Slaptrain was playing it and it looked great; I was hoping that when it came out the game would be better optimized for PC and etc.”

  • gameplay

    19 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    32% positive mentions, 52% neutral mentions, 16% negative mentions

    The gameplay emphasizes authentic, skillful drifting with a deep mechanic that rewards mastery, appealing to players seeking mechanical depth and community interaction. While the core loop is satisfying and supports customization and online play, some find it lacking in content variety and streamlined progression, with calls for more focused features and improved gameplay loops. Overall, it's promising but still evolving, especially with upcoming PvP and additional content.

    • “Drifting is not treated as a forgiving arcade mechanic; instead, it requires deliberate input and consistency, especially during long corners and tandem battles.”
    • “The game's core gameplay loop is incredibly satisfying, with a deep and rewarding drift system that encourages experimentation and mastery.”
    • “The challenges do a good job of teaching the basics and the skill ceiling is high which is great if you enjoy mastering the mechanics.”
    • “The grind would be fine if the gameplay loop was a bit more streamlined.”
    • “The ultimate boost would be Formula Drift jumping on board and giving more tracks and cars (DLC packs would be fine for me) and maybe a bit more focused gameplay rather than the sandbox it kind of is at the moment.”
    • “Not much to do, no gameplay loop, microtransactions, money is not hard to get but not fun to get.”

  • music

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 50% negative mentions

    Users generally appreciate the game's music, often highlighting the soundtrack as a standout feature. However, many express a desire for more control over the music selection, suggesting options like integrating Spotify or allowing custom MP3 inserts to personalize the audio experience.

    • “Great music and amazing graphics, physics needs work but EA.”
    • “Best part of the game is the soundtracks.”
    • “Good game, love the cars, sounds, and music.”
    • “One thing that would be nice is to let us have some control over the music. Not everyone likes the game's soundtrack, but it would be great to have the option to change the music through Spotify or by inserting MP3s.”
    • “It would be nice to have some control over the music. Not all players enjoy the game's soundtrack, so allowing access to change the music either via Spotify or MP3 inserts would improve the experience.”
    • “Allowing players to control the music would be a welcome feature. Since not everyone likes the game's soundtrack, options to change the music using Spotify or MP3 files would be a cool addition.”

  • monetization

    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    40% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 60% negative mentions

    The monetization has significantly improved from earlier versions, moving away from aggressive cash grabs to more justified microtransactions tied to costly licensed content. While microtransactions remain pervasive, earning in-game currency is accessible but lacks engaging gameplay motivation. Overall, the approach balances licensing costs with user experience better than before.

    • “This would be the perfect foundation for an official Formula Drift game, the cars look great, the customizing is great and the monetization has been improved immensely compared to the first release.”
    • “Overall, I understand why developers want such aggressive monetization for real-life content (Mad Mike bundle, Adam LZ bundle, Aurimas Bakchis bundle, Chris Forsberg bundle, and so on) — licensing is very expensive.”
    • “Microtransactions for everything.”
    • “Not much to do, no gameplay loop, microtransactions; money is not hard to get but not fun to get.”
    • “Overall, I get why developers want such aggressive monetization for real-life content (Mad Mike bundle, Adam LZ bundle, Aurimas Bakchis bundle, Chris Forsberg bundle, and so on) — licensing is extremely expensive.”

  • story

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The story is generally considered weak and unengaging, with single-player missions described as simplistic and poorly executed. Users also note performance issues and graphical bugs that detract from the experience. Overall, the narrative aspect falls short of expectations.

    • “It has a lot of potential but the story is pretty bad. Don't buy this expecting it to be like CarX Drift Racing Online because it's far from it. The single-player missions are a joke and feel like a poorly done mobile game port.”
    • “The single-player missions are very weak and not challenging or engaging, making the story feel rushed and unpolished.”
    • “The overall narrative and mission design feel unfinished and lack depth, which significantly diminishes the game's appeal.”

  • grinding

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Users find the grinding in the game to be excessive and repetitive, with slow in-game currency earnings requiring them to repeatedly complete the same events and navigate menus to continue progressing.

    • “My only issue is the amount of grinding needed to unlock certain cars.”
    • “If you don't want to repeat the same run over and over you have to go through various menus to change tracks to continue grinding.”
    • “Making in-game currency is incredibly slow and mega grindy; you find yourself doing the same event repeatedly.”

  • stability

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game is noted for its significant stability issues, with persistent bugs even in early access. Additionally, the incomplete content and costly DLC contribute to a frustrating experience.

    • “Buggy early access game that already sells half of its content as exorbitant DLC.”
    • “Still buggy”

  • atmosphere

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 100% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    Users praise the atmosphere for its immersive engine sounds and engaging gameplay, highlighting these elements as top-notch.

  • humor

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    Users appreciate the humor found in unexpected and quirky in-game moments, such as amusing glitches or exaggerated stunts, which provide memorable and genuinely funny experiences.

    • “I find the car always lands on its tires, which I find hilarious. I did a 360 quad kickflip entry on purpose over the bumper and laughed my arse off. One of my favorite moments in gaming in years, especially with a glitch.”
