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 have several key reasons for launching in Early Access:

We’re an indie team with no publisher or investors—your support is vital to our development.

We aim to organically grow the DWR community (which we’re part of!) to help shape the game’s final vision.

Balancing the game will take time—we need your expertise and feedback to refine it.

We insist on full creative control over Divinate Waifu Racing and future projects, as we have a clear vision for our games.

Early Access lets us test gameplay systems and ensure the final release meets your expectations!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

We expect Divinate Waifu Racing to remain in Early Access for ~1 year, depending on community engagement and development progress.
By then, we’re committed to delivering a polished experience where core mechanics are fun and bug-free.”

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

During Early Access, we’ll focus on:

Visual & UI design refinements;

Expanding character abilities, stories, and cosmetics;

Full account-wide passive skill trees and player Base events;

Player-driven trading;

Steam Workshop support for character skins;

Performance optimization.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The DWR Early Access build already includes multiple functional systems:

World map exploration

Combat and non-combat levels

Playable characters with unique abilities

Battle attribute system

Gacha mechanics

NPC trading

Inventory and crafting systems

Dual control schemes (combat vs. exploration)”

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

We plan a transition to a free-to-play model with optional microtransactions or DLC in case of successfull Early Access experience

However, we have intention to grant Early Access participants exclusive founder rewards, as they are core members of the DWR Community.

Additionally, we plan to provide special privileges for our indie team’s future projects for DWR Early Access adopters. (including ones that are already in development and will be announced soon!).

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

“We invite you to join the evolution of DWR! Your feedback may directly impact the development process through:

Steam Forum discussions (we read every thread)

Live Q&A on Discord/Twitch/YouTube (even "uncomfortable" questions—spoilers permitted!)

Regular dev blogs and updates to keep you informed.”

About This Game

Divinate Waifu Racing is the midcore fantasy action RPG with elements of combat racing and gacha, has a non-linear story, where magically enhanced characters (the Sephiroths) run at speeds from 50 to 300 km/h, pick up and use weapons and abilities, knock down the enemies.

The strength of the characters is determined by horsepower, instead of the standard RPG-based strength, dexterity or intelligence.

In-battle controls are non-standard, just like in racing games - throttle, brake, drift, acceleration.

Terra Phantasma Base Management

The player's base is the hyperspace village named Terra Phantasma, where crafting, character training, mission planning, and storyline with romance progression take place.

Specialized islands and your account-wide passive skill tree let players craft their perfect economic strategy to dominate Elvynn's player-driven marketplace!

Squad Management

Build your dream team of 4 characters, with real-time switching available in certain game modes - adapt your tactics on the fly!

Trade characters and items with other players, creating endless possibilities for a thriving player-driven economy!

We fully support the DWR community's creativity through Steam Workshop and can't wait to showcase player creations in-game!

Elvynn Worldmap exploration

The world map serves as your strategic hub - move step-by-step between weekly events including:

• Dynamic battles

• Epic boss encounters

• Competitive tournaments

• Hidden treasures

• Wandering merchants

• Special random events

The endgame system lets you ramp up difficulty for greater challenges and better rewards from battles and bosses!

Action-Incidents

Choose from 14 distinct Incident types - whether you want pure racing, tactical sabotage, or brutal boss encounters!

Each Incident has strict entry requirements (like 300-350 horsepower limits or FWD only) to guarantee fair races where skill decides the winner!

Story rich

Key narrative genres: Adventure, Drama, and Romance.

The main characters are a group of outcasts called "Swagmen" who are trying to find a way to control the mysterious superpower Theokinesis and take one of the sides in a magical war.

Theokinesis allows its users to convert kinetic force into magical energy, granting unparalleled power that terrifies mages and politicians across the Elvynn.

Hunted yet determined, the Swagmen fight against the entire world to uncover the truth about Teokinesis, each other’s pasts, and the love that could either save Elvynn - or reduce it to ashes.

Every quest features at least two endings, and every boss can be defeated in multiple ways. The story campaign offers a minimum of three distinct conclusions.
