Much more recently, KartRider Rush Plus launched in 2020 and raced to 10 million downloads in its first two weeks, starting out with more than 50 tracks and 20 karts. The first KartRider game was a Nexon title released in 2004, starting out as a South Korean service and localised in China in 2006 before expanding elsewhere. Cross-play won’t be featured between the two games. Īvailable on Steam, Nexon Launcher, the App Store and Google Play Store, KartRider: Drift follows in the tracks of its 2020 predecessor as a separate, standalone title.

Following on from the success of its KartRider Rush Plus mobile adaptation, Nexon has released a new free-to-play addition to the franchise on mobile and PC, titled KartRider: Drift.
