What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Touge Shakai is about building a community that is enthusiastic about Japanese Mountain Racing. After building an enthusiastic community that shared our vision in our previous game, it gave us ample feedback by directly interacting with our players daily. We would like to continue having same relationship with our players, to be able to improve and build on the game we dream to create. We also require additional time to develop and test all the features and content we plan to bring to the game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“To bring all features and content to the game, we expect to need at least about a year.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to add much more cars, tracks and features to the full version of the game. The features are planned to be added into the game over time, and we'll release the game as a full release when they are all fully completed.
  • Virtual Reality Support
  • Different weather conditions - Rain, fog
  • Online matchmaking and ranking
  • Driver and team profiles
  • Replay camera editor - Setup race cameras using key frames

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is playable with the core driving, multiplayer and car modding systems.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“For now, the plan is to have the price remain similar, or priced slightly higher after early access. However, the price may be adjusted based on the final amount of content included by the full release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We interact with our community on a daily basis on our Discord server to collect feedback and generally watch out what they are interested in. We plan to continue this form of interaction through the entire development phase of the project.”

About This Game

Touge Shakai (Mountain Pass Society) is an online Touge Racing Game based on Japanese car culture in the 90s. With an emphasis on balance between realism and fun gameplay, the physics are tailored for competitive drift racing, while giving a challenge to all players.

The driving physics are mainly simulated, but not to the extent of hardcore racing simulators. The driving characteristics of each car is tailored to be distinctly different from each other, and require drivers to master different driving styles to bring out the best in each car. The objective is to be fun while remaining believable. However, there's a twist to the driving physics: Drifting is faster than grip driving for most rear-wheel drive vehicles.

Features

  • Unique sim-cade driving physics designed for Touge Battles
  • Time Attack against local and online ghosts
  • Multiplayer lobbies for free roaming and impromptu battles
  • Cosmetic car customization - Body kits and custom liveries
  • Unique Touge racing modes
  • Steering wheel support with Force Feedback
  • In-game music player - Load your own tracks into the game

Game modes

Time Attack
Race against the clock with various cars and courses to improve your pace and compete on the leaderboards. Players can also challenge the “ghosts” of other players, which are apparitions of their previous runs to learn from their driving. Medals are awarded with target timings, and provides progression for customization for each car.

PvP Battle
Classic touge-style battle. Battles rules include "First to finish" and "Cat and Mouse". Cat and Mouse has a leader and a chaser, with the leader trying to pull away and the chaser trying to keep up. The leader wins when they finish the course by a fixed distance from the chaser, while the chaser wins if they manage to overtake by the finish. The race moves on to the next round in a draw, with their positions reversed. Cat and Mouse mode is recommended as it provides the fairest battle, as overtaking is difficult and dangerous on the touge.


Team battles consist of multiple PvP Battles ongoing at the same time, with the team with the most wins coming out on top.

Free Ride
Practice, socialize and start impromptu races with others on the touge and just have fun! Learn from others and enjoy the course without the pressure of winning or losing. Showcase your rides and hang out with other racers and teams.
