Can you Remap Controls in JDM Japanese Drift Master?

Yes, you can rebind the controls in JDM Japanese Drift Master, whether you’re playing on a controller or keyboard and mouse. There is a dedicated section in the controls settings that allows you to rebind every single key. You can also choose from different presets that have been set up by the developers.

JDM: Japanese Drift Master also has native support for both Xbox and PlayStation controllers, and you don’t need to use Steam Input. I actually recommend keeping it off because it showed me PlayStation prompts by default even though I had an Xbox controller plugged in.
