Realistic drifting game
CarX Drift Racing 2 is a free car racing game from developer CarX Technologies. As the title implies, this video game places heavy emphasis on drifting mechanics. It features plenty of arcade elements, much like Asphalt 9: Legends, but its realistic drifting and in-depth tuning brings it closer to simulation racing.
CarX Drift Racing 2 has several game modes, including online multiplayer. Players are given a large catalog of customization options to choose from, be it for appearance or performance. Tuning is complex as many factors affect each car’s drifting performance, making it an integral mechanic of the game.
More features and improved mechanics
CarX Drift Racing 2 is a feature-rich game with intricate mechanics. It provides players with countless customization options to personalize their cars and make them standout. Parts like mirrors, lights, running boards, bumpers, and others can be replaced. There are also various body kits, rims, and vinyl that help players make their cars unique. Players have all the tools to make their cars look the way they want.
The game improves CarX Drift Racing’s performance tuning, making it more complex and giving it a stronger influence on drifting physics. Fine-tuning the engine, turbine pressure, transmission, and others is made more rewarding as it has a greater impact on vehicle performance. According to the devs, this improvement was possible by conducting field tests with real drift cars. All these improvements are complemented by easy-to-learn controls and support for gamepads.
Its fleshed-out customization is made more enjoyable by excellent graphics and vehicle models. It also treats players with immersive sound effects and soundtracks. There are many unlockables but players will need to either pay or grind to access them. It also doesn’t help that the game features a “fuel” mechanic, which restricts how many in-game activities players can do in every session.
Enjoyable but grindy
CarX Drift Racing 2’s complex and realistic drifting mechanics make it a truly satisfying experience. With so many cars and customization options to unlock, players can expect to get busy playing this game. However, being a free-to-play game makes it an inevitable grind fest. If you’re willing to pay or grind, this game is among the best mobile racing games out there. Otherwise, stick to premium titles like GRID Autosport.
