Tokyo Xtreme Racer Finally Announces The News Fans Have Been Waiting For
At last – Honda is officially coming to Tokyo Xtreme Racer!
As Genki rolled out the latest teaser video for the cars that will arrive in the Version 1.0 release, following Early Access, the moment fans never expected arrived – the Honda NSX is the next car lurking in the shadows.

The teaser included the caption “4:00 PM Japan Time, 2025-08-29 (Fri),” indicating that the full reveal should be tomorrow, Friday, at 3:00 AM ET / 12:00 AM PT / 8:00 AM BST.
Perhaps we’ll get to see another teaser at the end, as we’ve come to expect from Genki? Likely, they’re just getting started with the Honda announcements – exciting times!
This marks the end of months of speculation about Honda’s arrival. It’s arguably the biggest news since the series reboot after 18 years.
Honda joins the main JDM manufacturers already added to the TXR reboot, including Nissan, Toyota, Lexus, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Suzuki, and Mazda.
While today’s focus was meant to be on the recently discontinued Nissan R35 GT-R, a legend in its own right, the NSX stole the spotlight.

Given these additions, here’s the latest confirmed car list expected for TXR’s upcoming full release in September:
- Honda NSX
- Nissan GT-R (R35)
- Toyota Celsior
- Toyota GR Supra
- Nissan “Hakosuka” Skyline 2000GT-R (KPGC10)
- Nissan Fairlady Z (Nissan Z)
- Lexus RC F Track Edition
- Lexus LC500
- Toyota GR Yaris
After Genki’s Reddit Q&A, we took a deep dive into what’s next for the series, where they confirmed they were “still in negotiation with Honda.” There has been no further update since, but the wait was worth it.
Unfortunately, there’s still no news on the release dates for Xbox or PlayStation consoles.
The news is a huge step in the right direction, and we can’t wait to see what’s added next.
Could the Civic be next? We won’t have long to find out.
