Publisher PQube has announced that its upcoming twin-stick arcade racer Inertial Drift will no longer be launching next month as planned.
The studio took to social media last night to inform fans that the game has been pushed back from a 7th August release to the 11th September.
We've been keeping our eye on this one for a while now, with its stylish art-style drawing us in with every drift and tyre screech. A physical edition is on the way, too.
Twin-stick drifting!
Twice the controls, twice the control! A completely new level of precision allows for drifts a hair's breadth away from the crash barrier, making every turn intense!
90s Retro-Future setting!
20 tracks, flooded by the lights of pink Japanese sunset and vibrant neon-cities, set the stage for thrilling chases!Intense 1-on-1 racing!
Scaling the races down to duels adds excitement to every face-off. Put your name on the leaderboards by challenging players both online and offline or practice with ghosts and AI opponents!16 different driving styles!
Every car in Inertial Drift is electric and has a unique driving style! Pick your favourite technique or master all of them to become the ultimate racer!
We're sure that month will fly by, so hopefully the delay won't feel too long. Thinking of picking this up when it launches? Let us know in the comments.

I can wait. I'll be going physical on this. Too bad it's a 30fps racer on Switch though.
To be honest, I forgot this existed until now. Looks alright though, and the fact it's getting a PROPER physical release is a bonus.
Could be good!
Bought Real Drift Racing yesterday as it's 1€ promo.
Graphics and control are great, but no other cars ruins the experience to me.
If this is an iteration and they're putting other cars in, it can be fun!
Dig the idea and the style, but it seems really rough. I mean, just check out the trailer and you'll see tires clipping through hoods, and is that just one tire squeal sound used over and over?
Here's hoping it comes out, is good, has enough Eurobeat, and an AE86. I've yet to enjoy anything this publisher has put out, but I'm sure it'll be worth the buck it'll cost me on Steam when I finally decide to pick it up.
They can delay even more and learn how to come up with their own, not ripped-off, name of the game...
@Averagewriter This is only an issue if you make it an issue. It might be a sensitive date and all, but businesses shouldnt simply avoid that date like the plague either. This doesn't necessarily mean businesses are being disrespectful. That's just.......life, and life must go on.
And here are just some of the games released on that date (years prior)
Boundless (PS4)
Claws Of Furry (PS4)
Mercenaries Saga Chronicles (Switch)
NBA 2K19 (PC, PS4, Switch, XB1)
NHL 19 (PS4, XB1)
Nefarious (PS4)
Super Street: The Game (PS4, XB1)
V-Rally 4 (PS4)
