Thank you for continuing to support Tokyo Xtreme Racer.

Today, we would like to notify our fans that we will be extending the early access period and we apologize to those who have been waiting for the launch of the full game.

There are three main reasons for the delay in release of the full game:

1. We have revisited the full feature set of the game based on the tremendous amount of feedback we have received.

2. To spend more time developing and fine tuning the game to meet the expectations of our fans.

3. Have been able to nearly conclude our discussions with our licensing partners.

First of all, we would like to express our appreciation and excitement for the engagement and feedback we have received during the early access period.

We have been working hard at adding features and tuning the game but still face challenges in delivering an experience that meet fan expectations.
We are near closing of all licensing discussions and are confident that we can implement everything into the full release.

With this, we would like to extend the early access period to the end of September of 2025.

Below are a portion of the list of features we plan to implement for the full release of the game.

■ Features planned for tuning:
- AI behavior
- Polishing UI
- Re-designing of perk and skill tree
- Game balancing
- Tuning of rival cars

■ Planned additional features
- Steam achievements
- Steam Record rankings
- Replay functionality
- Engine Conversion functionality
- Dynamic Water and Oil Temperature functionality
- Hard difficulty mode

Certain features listed above will be added as updates during the early access period.

The entire development team have considered all of the feedback provided and are doing our best to provide the best racing experience possible.

Please look forward to further updates and the full release of Tokyo Xtreme Racer.
