"Tokyo Xtreme Racer" is a racing game set in a sealed-off future Tokyo, where you compete for the fastest speed in your customized cars on the highways that weave through the city, aiming to reach the top.
Drive real cars on meticulously recreated courses, compete against powerful rivals, slip through other cars, and engage in spirit-wracking battles.
Unlike regular racing games, the SP Battle (Spirit Point Battle) is a unique battle feature based Spirit Points, a numeric value that quantifies the willpower of drivers. Not only is your speed tested, master the mind games and break your opponent's resolve.
With the Tokyo Expressway faithfully reproduced, the complex twists and dramatic elevation changes deliver an adrenaline-pumping racing experience that's as close to the real thing as it gets.
The race begins with a headlight flash as you face off against rivals with distinctive cars and bold driving styles.
“Since this is the first time in over 18 years that Tokyo Xtreme Racer will be returning, we felt it would be best to launch the game in Early Access to do justice to the franchise. A lot has changed in the genre since Tokyo Xtreme Racer was around, and we believe it's just as important to collect feedback not only from the fans that have stuck with the franchise, but also from racing game fans in general.
We would greatly appreciate your feedback to help Tokyo Xtreme Racer become what our fans truly deserve and to help new fans discover their love of us!”
Tokyo Xtreme Racer will be available through Steam Early Access on January 22, 2025, and will remain so for about 4 months.
“Over 200 rival characters each with their own unique storyline have been implemented already. There will also be a total 50 playable cars, and over 180 kilometers worth of the Shuto Expressway to race upon.”
“The plan is to improve the quality of the game by making various improvements based on your feedback over the course of approximately 4 months of Early Access. Depending on how the progress of development goes throughout Early Access, we will decide and announce the full release of the game as soon as possible.”
“Upon release of Early Access, the game will include the story playable up to roughly the halfway mark, with a focus on SP battle and the car tuning features. Player skill gains, a new feature to the franchise will be included in the Early Access experience as well. We plan for the full release of the game to include additional storylines, vehicles, and rival characters. We also plan to continue making improvements and address various potential issues before the full release of the game - all with the help of your feedback of course!”
Tokyo Xtreme Racer is in development for PC (Steam), scheduled for 2025.
