- Game Update, B0099 - 28 July 2026
In this update, unfortunately as the AI driver isn't up to standard, we can't add it to the game properly yet. However, we bring you a new 4WD car, as well as some long standing fixes and a new small feature.New Car: JT4Screenshot by player: KaryA long requested 4WD car is here! Initially planned as a low powered, stable, easy to drive 4WD car, through community feedback and testing, it is now tuned to be a more agile beast. It handles between the Mitsurin and the other stable 4WD platforms, able to hold some slides at lower speeds while being relatively stable at higher speeds. We hope it brings an interesting change compared to the other cars we have so far! New Customization: Wheel SmoothnessAs requested, you can now also choose the texture of the wheels on top of the color. Love Matte wheels? Chrome wheels? Go crazy! Expanded Force Feedback SupportAt long last, TS should finally sup…

In this update, we bring you another beautiful car, various other improvements, as well as a long awaited feature: Working wipers and raindrops! Some weaker cars are also tuned by our best players, so they now have a competitive chance. Furthermore, we're proud to announce that Touge Shakai should be getting Steam Deck Verified soon!New Car: Shin-GojiraAn iteration on the Gojira, the new model focuses on stability and power. As a newer generation, this modern reimagining features an improved dynamic AWD system and tuned suspension, allowing it to put power down like it’s on rails. However, beware: all this new tech comes at a cost — weight!New feature: Working wipers and raindropsWe've finally managed to complete a long standing feature that was supposed to come out with the rain update, but we hope it was worth the wait! The wipers are able to be controlled manually (you have to bind i…

With this update, we have a highly requested midship, as well as a revamped garage! New Car: SRX A rear-wheel drive midship with decent power, the SRX is able to handle all sorts of courses well with its unique handling. Garage Overhaul We agree with feedback that it was a little weird for modifying the car in a paint booth, so here's a brand new beautiful garage to work on your cars in! Furthermore, there is a "walk around" mode that you can use to admire your creations, as well as to walk up to each part to modify them directly! ChangelogAdded SRXAdded new garage environmentAdded new garage walk-around modeSlight power buff to MizukaFixed joining lobbies with wrong password crashing lobbyFixed part price on mitsurinNew collision soundsNew headlight shapeRendering optimizations to tyresAdded shadow rendering optimzation to SRX (under testing)

In this update, we bring you a new car, as well as more fixes and QoL improvements New Car: Shourei A personal favourite of mine, this car strikes a great balance of grip and drift style driving.

- Game Update, Build 0075 - 27 February 2025
As mentioned before, this update is focused on fixing and addressing issues and improvements, such as car balancing, based on your feedback. Also, to give more meaning to Team Battles, there is one new feature. New Feature: Team System Touge Shakai now features a fully-fledged Team System, allowing players to form and join teams once they hit level 50! We've designed this system to bring players together and enhance the competitive experience. The Team System includes: Creating & Managing Teams – Players at level 50 can create their own teams, while leaders can approve or reject applications, as well as transfer ownership Team Battles Integration – Teams are now officially tracked in 2v2, 3v3, 4v4, and 5v5 battles, with stats recorded for battles between registered teams Team Decal - Upon joining a team, you will automatically have access to the team decal in the garage Please head to t…
- Game Update, Build 0068 - 24 November 2024
In this update, we bring to you a brand new feature, which in a sense is somewhat of an entire game by itself: FPV Drones! As well as the longest track to grace Touge Shakai. New Feature: FPV Drone Touge Shakai now features an FPV drone which you can fly in game! The simulation was written from scratch after months of research. However, as we're not actual FPV drone pilots, please reach out to us to give feedback if you're a real pilot and would like to see it be even more realistic! We would love for the FPV drone community to join us, as we think they're a great fit for chasing cars attacking the Touge. The drone is quite fully featured, and includes 3 flight modes: Acro (Full manual) Angle Altitude Hold As most FPV pilots would say, although it is the toughest, we recommend Acro mode if you can handle it, as it allows the most agile movements to do some moves required to keep up with…
- Game Update, Build 0059 - 5 August 2024
It's time for another update! Firstly, apologies for the duration this update took, but it's finally here! In this update, we now have Team Battles, a new car, and a new track! New Game Mode: Team Battles You can now join up with your friends and battle as a Team! Team Battles support 2v2 up to 5v5 battles. For now, it is a very basic implementation, and will be expanded upon in the near future to include more different rules of battling, such as concurrent uphill and downhill battles, and allowing players to vote on the lineup to allow more strategies. New Car: Suisei At long last, the most requested car to be added is here. Check it out! New Track: Remade Enna Skyline Due to production reasons, to complete Enna Skyline we had to remake it from scratch, and now the full length version is here! Other Changes, Improvements and Fixes Added a "Car Radar" to better visualize where other car…
- Hotfix, Build 0051 - 13 May 2024
Fixed various VR related multiplayer bugs Fixed missing effects for various new rims Fixed some checkpoints for Myogi
- Game Update, Build 0048 - 9 May 2024
It's time for VR! In our opinion, all cockpit based games should support VR, as they're the best ways to immerse players in the experience. Now, we're proud to say that Touge Shakai supports Virtual Reality! If you have a headset that works with SteamVR, TS should work with it. We also believe that TS is one of the most detailed racing games in terms of interior animations, and we're really proud of it. Now, they can be experienced as intended! In our implementation, all of the regular user interface has been adapted to work within the VR environment, and the menu experiences should be familiar. During scenes that are unsuitable for VR, such as camera panning or third person cameras, the game will render these scenes on a "virtual monitor" to prevent motion sickness. Just a couple of things to take note of: Please bind the "Reset VR Position" control within settings before firing up VR…

Fixed minimap hiding at night system causing game to lock up Fixed opponent driving over puddle causing controller to vibrate Fixed wrong online ghosts for rain Fixed sending records to leaderboard failing inconsistently
- Game Update, Build 0040 - 21 February 2024
Rain is here! In the last announcement about the system being complete, the puddles were randomly placed by the system. Feedback from our testers was that there were many puddles where it made no sense, which made the puddles more of a hindrance than adding to the overall fun. Hence, we've decided to rewrite the system, and now the puddles are hand placed, which was a much more laborious task than we had anticipated. We hope that you guys will now have fun challenging the touge in the wet! New Track: Tsuchisaka It's finally time for a new track, and we're happy to announce that Tsuchisaka will now join the roster as one of the custom made maps for TS. In our previous game, Tsuchisaka was one of our favourite tracks, with a great layout, big elevation changes, and slow and high speed sections. We're really excited for it to make a comeback, and believe that it will quickly grow to be one…

- Development Update: Rain! - 31 December 2023
Hi guys! Sorry for staying silent for so long. Since it's the end of 2023, We thought it'll be important to give you guys an update! Firstly, I would like to give an update about my mother. I'm happy to say that she has been recently discharged from the hospital! However, she has not fully recovered, and we need to take care of her at home. Hence, it has actually been taking up more of my time and energy, but fortunately things are looking good. With the less time I've left remaining for TS, I've chosen to spend as much of that time as possible on development, hence the lack of interaction on the Discord server recently. I sincerely apologize for that. However, on a more positive note: Rain is almost complete! And I'm pretty proud of our implementation of it. Other than just a graphical effect, it also affects the physics. Other than the wet roads being more slippery, there are also phy…
