Latest CarX Drift Racing Online update adds new map and cars

One of the leading drifting-focussed racing games, CarX Drift Racing Online, has just received a massive 2.11.0 update which adds new content.

The game was originally released on PC via Steam in 2017, with PS4 and Xbox One versions following in 2019. Despite its age, support is plentiful and all this is while the team works on a new game, CarX Street.

The chief addition is one new map and three new cars. The NRing venue is in the style of a contemporary racing venue and features flowing, medium speed, curves and a smooth surface. Ideal for side-by-side online drifting.

The Penguin, GloriousXZ and Flash are now part of the car roster. CarX doesn’t have licensed vehicles, so we can neither confirm or deny that these resemble the Pontiac Solstice, Nissan 300ZX and Nissan R34 Skyline sedan.

A big draw to the series is the car customisation options, and these have been enhanced in this update too, thanks to new body kits for the Vanguard- StreetX, Karnage 7C-ProFlow and Cobra GT530- StreetX. There’s a slew of new stickers for your custom livery designs too.

Finally, there’s a list of smaller changes and fixes, which we’ve listed below. The update is now live for PC players and developer CarX Technologies has confirmed that PlayStation and Xbox players will receive the patch within the next two weeks.
