To drift in GTA 5 on PS4, it's pretty simple but requires practice. First, start accelerating your vehicle. Before you hit a turn, tap the Square button to brake slightly, then hold down R1 to activate the handbrake while turning with the Left Stick. Remember to control your throttle with the R2 button to maintain the drift. Practice makes perfect!

Honestly, just mash the R1 button and pray. Steering? Optional. Kidding (sort of). Real talk, it's about finesse: accelerate into the turn, tap that handbrake (R1), and keep your cool. If you spin out, you went full throttle when you should've gone half. Dial it back, try again.

Drifting in GTA 5 on PS4 is all about that sweet balance between speed and control. You wanna go fast, but not too fast, ya know? So, here's the trick: while you're speeding, press and hold the R1 button (that's the handbrake) and steer in the direction you wanna drift. It might take a few tries to get it right because timing and steering are key. But once you get it, you'll be drifting like a pro in no time!

I've been playing GTA 5 since it came out and let me tell you, mastering the drift on PS4 is all about feeling. You gotta feel the car. Use the R1 for the handbrake, control your steering, and adjust your speed. Too much gas and you're doing donuts. Too little, and you're just taking a boring turn. It's an art, my friends, an art.
