Try not to crash
- CarX Drift Racing 3, the latest entry in the franchise, is out now on iOS and Android
- Experience breakneck racing and drifting in a variety of custom cars
- Explore a historical campaign that takes you through the development of drift racing
As we drift into the weekend (see what I did there?) you may be struggling for a new release to play. Maybe you've had your eye on Blasphemous? Or Civilization VI, both recently released on mobile? But if you're looking for high-octane racing action, the only option is to try out CarX Drift Racing 3, out now on iOS and Android.
CarX Drift Racing focuses on the world of, what else, drift racing. A sport focused on using the art of "drifting" a car for sharp turns, this kind of high-octane motorsport is captured wonderfully in the CarX series. And this latest entry boasts even more additions than usual.
For example, not only do you have a damage system that can bring your car to a halt if you're not careful enough, or 80 parts per car to customise to your heart's content, but you also have a five-part historical campaign to make your way through that will take you from the inception of drift racing in the eighties through to the modern day.

Meanwhile, if you're more concerned with doing a bit of globe-trotting, you'll be glad to know that iconic tracks such as Ebisu, Nürburgring, ADM Raceway and Dominion Raceway will be available for you to make your way through! That and the Top 32 mode that sees you racing against the computer that will adapt to your every move.
The CarX series has proved immensely popular, and for good reason. So hopefully, if you're looking to burn some rubber this weekend CarX Drift Racing 3 will deliver!
