Shutoko Expressway
Described as the main map with more features: highways, intertwined roads, and sharp bends — suited to strolls and making cash. The default choice for learning the game and farming.
Maps
Pick your asphalt.
Guides report a map choice at session start — and that you cannot swap mid-match. Here is what each known map is for, with the date of every claim stamped on it.
Quick start
The known maps.
Two named by a September 2025 beginner guide, one named by an official post. The start screen in your session is the final roster.
Boneville Salt Flats
Described as newer and buggier: barren land with longer roads, better suited to racing. Pick it when top speed matters more than scenery or features.
Tokyo
An official developer post referenced a code reward that worked only on the Tokyo map — proof Tokyo exists in the roster. Beyond that, details are unconfirmed: check the start screen.
One rule matters most: the 2025 guide reports maps cannot be changed after a match has started. Choose for the session you want — cruising and cash, or flat-out racing — before you confirm.
Racing
Official racing, with its own badge.
Racing is a first-class mode alongside regular driving, exploring with friends, and meetups.
Races up to 10 players
Guides describe races against up to nine other players, with an auto repair shop and showcases between events. Servers cap at 14, so races fill most of a server.
Win a Race badge
Winning your first race earns the official Win a Race badge, confirming that organized racing is one of the experience's supported modes.
Maps FAQ
Before you pick a map.
The questions that decide your first session's scenery.
Which map should a beginner pick?
The 2025 guide points beginners to Shutoko Expressway: more features, good cruising, and good cash farming. Boneville is the racing-first option once you have a fast build.
Can I change maps mid-session?
Reported as no — the September 2025 guide says maps cannot be changed after a match starts. Pick for the session you want, or rejoin to switch.
Is the Tokyo map real?
An official developer post referenced a reward that worked only on the Tokyo map, so Tokyo exists in some form. Details beyond that are unconfirmed — the start screen is the authority.
Is this game Midnight Racing: Tokyo?
No — different game. This is Midnight Chasers: Highway Racing by Midnight In-dev (place 13822562292). The Tokyo connection is a map inside this game, not the game's title. More on the FAQ page.
