Today, Electronic Arts detailed the Drift mode for its upcoming title, Need For Speed: Shift, in which players are required to toggle the brakes while constantly adjusting the steering to maintain drifts through the corner – exactly like the drifters in real life. Details are as follow:

  • Need for Speed: Shift delivers the most authentic drift experience ever seen in a video game
    • World champion drifter Vaughn Gittin Jr. put in over 100 hours with SMS to ensure accuracy and realism
    • Players will be required to toggle the throttle and brakes while constantly adjusting the steering to maintain drifts through the corner – exactly like drifters in real life
    • Real world physics ensue the car behaves exactly as it should
      • Vehicle set-up (horsepower, suspension etc.) dramatically impacts a player’s technique and overall style

  • Driver profile extends to drift
    • As in all racing, setting the right line is critical. Clipping points are set on the track to ensure the player achieves the perfect line and maximizes profile points
    • Drift related badges

  • Accessibility is key
    • Entry level players can use the amateur setting to help them learn the basics of drifting and ramp up the difficulty as they progress
    • Conversely, experienced drivers can use the pro setting and experience the most realistic drift experience ever in a video game.
