The 80s are "in" these days and what better way to capitalize on what's cool then with a :krad: racing game?

Though there's limited information on it so far, Drift Stage is going to be a race game with an emphasis on (you guessed it) drifting based tricks and sweet moves. Information about a release date is yet to come.

Drift Stage official site posted:

Drift Stage is a modern evolution of the classic arcade racer, bringing the gameplay up to date a bit while keeping the late 80's style intact.

In these street races, speed reigns supreme. The art of the drift is easy to learn and immediately fun, but it's true depth and challenge are hard to master.

Drift Stage will feature a roster of cars inspired by the mid-late 80's and early 90's racing on tracks ranging from city streets to coastal beaches and many in between. The game comes fully loaded with single-player modes including a character oriented career mode, circuit races, and leaderboard chasing time trials. Local splitscreen and online multiplayer races will also be in full swing.

Drift Stage is currently targeting an initial PC/Mac release with a possible mobile/console release following.



Oh and eye searing visuals.



It has those too, and it is glorious. There's not a ton out about it yet, but it really reminds me of Outrun for the Sega Genesis.

I did call the visuals 'eye-searing' in the OP. :v:
