Ridge Racer: Draw & Drift was a spin-off in the Ridge Racer series published by Bandai Namco Entertainment in 2016, released for iOS and Android platforms within select markets. It is the overall final entry in the series. As of recently, it is no longer available to download.
Overview[]
Unlike the previous installments, in this title, players have to draw/trace a specific path prior and tap the screen at certain points in the race to execute drift, similar to Drift Spirits, Bandai Namco's drift racing game.
Game Modes[]
The main career mode is now dubbed "Ridge Racer World Cup", set in Ridge City. Reiko Nagase returns as the player's manager.
Aside from the Ridge Racer World Cup, a side event dubbed "Legend League" is also available if the player has reached a certain level. The league is coordinated by Jin Kazama, who also serves as a boss.
Drifting and Controls[]
Drifting is now executed at specific zones marked in green and white. The white strip on the drift zone indicate the "perfect drift". Drifts are now rated based on the player's reaction time. The player car also auto-accelerates, meaning that little action is needed from the player.
Cars[]
Cars divided into three classes: R1, R2 and R3.
Class R1
Class R2
Class R3
