The first Tokyo Xtreme Racer in 18 years lands on Steam early access this month

There is not long to go until you can rev your engines once more with an all new Tokyo Xtreme Racer game.

The upcoming release - which will mark the first series title in 18 years - will make its Steam early access debut later this month, on 23rd January. Developer Genki said it will use this early access stint to "utilise player feedback to elevate the game even further".

Early access is expected to last for around four months. Then, of course, the full release will launch. This version will include the remainder of the story, along with additional cars, additional rival characters, and "new features and improvements". Genki added those who plump for the early access version will have access to the full release version upon launch, at the discounted early access price (for now, that price is "TBA", so stay tuned).

In addition, the team has shared the PC specs for Tokyo Xtreme Racer, which you can check out below.
