The sequel to the best-selling racing game of the 21st century,
The Fast and the Furious Drift arcade video game picks up where the original left off.
Drift features 12 fully licensed exotic cars, along with seven new Japanese tracks to complement the 12 original tracks. More significantly, the game makers added the ability to drift, which provides bigger bonuses and better times to the players that master it. Players also have the ability to upgrade their car by adding credits to mod their ride even faster. For an additional credit, players will receive two upgrades, and of course, players can save and view their cars and upgrades in an all-new stats screen.
What is drifting? Drifting, which started out as a driving technique in Japanese competitive racing, is the art of over-steering your car. Drifting was featured in
The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (the movie that spawned this game), and the drifting phenomenon has now reached a much wider audience as a result. Just like in the movie, drifting is an integral part of the game, and it will help you reach the top of the leader board once you learn how to do it right. Whereas in the original
The Fast and the Furious, players were able to play for the most damage and airtime, now they can add drifting to the mix by trying for the longest individual drift time, best cumulative drift time, and longest drift chain.
The Fast and the Furious Drift, which is available as a 27-inch sit-down model and a 27-inch upright, measures 34 by 78 by 63 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 643 pounds.
