Konami announced the first details on the game:
"Viewed from above, Driift is a fast-paced racer that allows up to eight players to race each other, using cartoon-style characters. Featuring twelve different tracks based on four themed environments – cityscape, hills, snow and a desert oasis – players can also select one of 34 vehicles from four categories. Each category is tailored for use within the different environments, with variations of speed, acceleration and handling and grip levels making specific vehicles ideal for particular locations."

Features of DRiiFT include:
- 34 different vehicles. 4 car categories have unique characteristics (speed, acceleration, grip)
- 12 different tracks (3 per environment: City, Snow, Hills, Oasis)
- Singleplayer Championship
- Six Multiplayer modes:
1. Multiplayer Championship (free customization of races and car categories)
2. Team Race (participants are divided into two teams, with the winner determined by those that accrue the most points)
3. VIP (elects one player per team as a VIP vehicle, who must be protected at all costs)
4. Contamination (a player is marked contagious and must contaminate every other player within a set period)
5. Cold Potatoes (charges the user with collecting said vegetable and holding on to it for as long as possible)
6. Meteorite (normal race, while trying to avoid a series of meteors as they fall from the sky)

DRiiFT is scheduled for a July 2009 release via WiiWare for US, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. Konami notes that "DRiiFT" is the working title for the game, so the name may change before release on WiiWare.
