JDM Multiplayer Arrives June 11, Bringing Online Drifting to Players Worldwide
Multiplayer for JDM launches in mid June.
Let’s Drift Together!
After successful tests on Steam the multiplayer component for JDM is almost ready to be deployed for all players. The release date is scheduled for June 11.
The multiplayer feature will roll out for PC - Steam first. GoG and Epic will receive the update in the following weeks. Console release is scheduled for Q3 2026.
Scope of the initial multiplayer launch
Players will receive access to the open world sandbox, where they can arrange car meets and cruise around the world together. Additional game modes are planned and are under development - more details coming soon.
The Multiplayer component is designed for 8 player lobbies, with both private and open rooms available for all.
Upcoming features
As per community requests following the tests, we have begun work on implementing some quality of life additions to multiplayer. They include:
- marking a location on the map screen,
- command text chat,
- the ability to visit the tuning and paint shops during a multiplayer sessions,
- ghost mode.
Each player in the lobby will be colour coded and with the support of an integrated voice chat, as well as the location marking system, it will be easier for all players to gather around specific activities.
Ghost mode is a setting that can be turned on or off by the host when starting a private room - this feature will disable car collisions, making it easier to roam around together and learn how to drift in tandem without annoying your friends.
These features are in active development and we hope to have them ready for the public launch.
American Classics DLC & more content coming to JDM
The second DLC for the game called The American Classics is scheduled to launch on June 25. It introduces six new, non-licensed American Cars to the game. With a 5.99 USD price set, it will launch on all platforms simultaneously.
