You are a professional racer who was set up right when you had your last chance to stay in the championship. The hero decided to enter the world of illegal racing, choosing between dirty and very dirty tactics — but keep in mind that the police aren't going to play fair either.

Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We’re launching Street Shift Early Access to actively work on the game together with community, that way we can gather much more valuable data about gameplay mechanics, in-game economy, bad or good level-design decisions and creating a playerbase. Please give us your feedback, no matter good it is or bad.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“As of now there is only one main developer with couple helping hands. It was already almost 2 years of development and major part of it was learning game engine's quirks and developing tools for much faster game building. Approximately game will stay in Early Access for minimum 6 months and maximum of 2 years, its all depends on community support.”

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

“v1.0 will have complete story mode, much more cars (with expanding selection across v1.1+ updates), bigger open world and far world locations, fixed bugs as much as we can find and much much more including risk&reward mechanics and multiplayer.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“As of now the game is in active development and having finished very complex vehicle physics and customization manager, the lore and game scenario is almost complete, major part of level design is almost done but game still cant be passed from start till end. For much more details please visit our discord server or patreon page (progress updates over there are free).”

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

“No, price will stay the same. The reason is because game will keep getting update a lot after v1.0 release, a lot of content and pvp mechanics. With world proper streaming the posibilities basically infinite, the borders are just disc space.”

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

“Direct communication via discord server. But players need to keep in mind that first things first - planned features need to be made so their feedback should be focused on overall feelings and not proposing new features.”

About This Game

Fast cars, but idiots behind the wheel. Big money, but how can you look your family in the eye afterward? One of the strongest traffic police forces, but one in three officers is corrupt.

Welcome to Sheridan Highs, one of the most active motorsports districts in America. This is where your story of crossing over to the dark side of racing begins, though legal racing remains an excellent option for laundering money.

-A vast, ever-expanding open world—but don't expect to drive through the forest in a regular hatchback. The dynamic transition between day and night, including the weather — stay alert, because during a police chase at night, you have the chance to turn off your headlights and escape the chase much faster. However, you still need to be able to see the road.

-A growing fleet of cars with enormous future potential for visual customization to suit every taste.

-A fully operational system for extreme performance tuning that completely customizes the vehicle to the driver's needs.
-Pacejka's Modified Magic Formula (I don't know why other racing game developers mention this — it must be the standard for simcades).

-The reliable yet complex operation of turbo systems, anti-lag systems, cooling systems, and other components that directly affect performance.

-To reduce the hassle on the street, we had to do without refueling stops, repairs for damage, and tire and brake disc wear. However, all these issues remained in legal racing.

-Travel to race tracks around the world during race weekends, stopping by your racing team's office or the airport along the way.

A wide variety of racing disciplines are available to you:

-Street racing

-Rally racing

-A variety of disciplines in legal racing

-Drag racing

-Drifting

-Prototypes

On the streets, you’ll find a wide variety of contracts available, ranging from car theft and routine transportation of people or goods to distracting the police throughout the entire district. In legal races, you’ll be responsible for choosing a manager and owner for your racing team. Each sponsor has its own requirements and restrictions, and each discipline will have its own limitations, which will require you to either build a new race car or significantly modify your current one.

The advanced visual livery editor lets you include as many elements as your computer can handle; however, after saving, all elements (for example 2500) are combined into a single colored livery. In multiplayer, you’ll have the chance to become a true stylist and earn money by selling liveries to other players at a price you set, but that livery will be removed from your garage. For those who like a thrill, you can visit the port where stolen cars are delivered in containers. It’s unclear what’s inside, but one thing is certain: the police will confiscate the car as soon as they catch you in it. If you're looking to make a quick buck on the races, don't hesitate to bet on someone to win—even if it means risking your pink slip.

In multiplayer, you'll need to create a new profile that will include various bonuses based on your progress in single-player mode. But there, you’ll have the chance to form groups and entire teams, battle for territory in your ranked matches and various categories, set weekly time records, watch races between the strongest teams, place bets, and much more...
