What is VDrift?
VDrift is a driving simulation built with drift racing in mind. It focuses on vehicle physics, with cars and circuits based on real-world counterparts and AI opponents to race against. It suits players looking for a simulation-focused racing game rather than a claim of arcade-style handling.
The publisher lists mouse, keyboard, joystick, gamepad and steering-wheel input support. These are supported input types, not a guarantee that every controller or wheel will work without configuration.
This entry links to the publisher-listed Windows 64-bit EXE for version 2014-10-20. Softonic lists an older 2009-06-15 version; that listing is not the version of this download. The package is a legacy release, and compatibility with current Windows versions has not been established here. The screenshot shows a historical Display Options menu from the Softonic Windows gallery, not a verified capture of the selected 2014 build.
What it offers
- Driving physics designed for a drift-racing simulation.
