Poll What Review Score Would You Give Drag x Drive?
Brag or dive?

More drag than drive?
Ahead of Drag x Drive's launch tomorrow, reviews for the wheelchair basketball game have dropped, and... they're pretty mixed.

Tokyo Drag
Here's a tip for you: don't just dive into Drag x Drive mid-match. After being thrust into a game in progress late in the day during our Nintendo Switch 2 experience, this Mouse Mode-controlled game felt like learning a completely new language. Instead of deftly throwing the ball and shooting hoops in what is essentially Rocket League...
