The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A celebratory open-world driving festival where you cruise through scenic Japanese landscapes, collect cars, and hang out with friends in a relaxed, social atmosphere.

What players say

Players praise the Japan setting, the rock-solid optimization and the best driving feel in the series. But many are frustrated by the forced weekly co-op events, the festival playlist's punitive FOMO design, and a wave of crashes and disconnects that started with a post-launch update. Cheating goes largely unpunished, and the character writing is bland.
