Genki are returning to their racing roots with a brand new Tokyo Xtreme Racer in the works, due out for release sometime in 2025. The first series title in 18 years, no doubt fans of the classic Genki racers will be happy about this, especially as it's coming to Steam too so you'll be able to play it with Proton on Steam Deck / Desktop Linux.

Their teaser was brief and didn't really show anything:

Their Steam page was also light on any actual details too:

"Tokyo Xtreme Racer" is a racing game set in a sealed-off future Tokyo, where you compete for the fastest speed in your customized cars on the highways that weave through the city, aiming to reach the top.

Drive real cars on meticulously recreated courses, compete against powerful rivals,
slip through other cars, and engage in spirit-wracking battles.
This is a series with unparalleled appeal.

A new title, "Tokyo Xtreme Racer" now in development
please look forward to the release of more information.

You can follow it on Steam.

I wish they would return to Jade Cocoon what a beautiful game. I mean, Katsuya Kondō is not even that old yet, he's still directing and designing.

But let's see what else they bring to Tokyo Xtreme Racer, the trailer really gives no details whatsoever.

That is some very bare bones imagery for something that is supposed to release next year.

Ahh yes! Give me this! I am still turning on my Dreamcast to play my original Tokyo Highway Challenge 2 (Tokyo Xtreme Racer 2 / Shutoko Battle 2, lol).

Ok, but will this Game be better than extreme tux racer ?

....
Yes I know this is a completely different game, but the name is similar, so the comparison is worth it right ?

Next japan-themed game. Looks interesting, can't wait.
