Nexon announced the global shutdown of KartRider: Drift, launched in January 2023 across mobile, console, and PC platforms. However, the Asian servers (Taiwan and South Korea) will remain operational, albeit with upcoming changes. Nexon hasn't revealed specifics about these changes or the possibility of a global relaunch.
Will Asian Servers Also Shut Down?
No, the Asian versions in Taiwan and South Korea will continue. Nexon plans to update these versions, but details are yet to be released.
Global Shutdown Timing?
The exact date of the global shutdown remains unannounced. The game is still available on the Google Play Store, allowing players to enjoy it before the end-of-year closure.
Reasons for Global Shutdown:
Despite efforts to provide a smooth global experience, KartRider: Drift faced challenges. Player feedback highlighted issues with excessive automation, leading to repetitive gameplay. Technical problems, including optimization difficulties on some Android devices and numerous bugs, further contributed to the decision. Nexon aims to refocus development on the Korean and Taiwanese PC versions, striving to recapture the game's original vision.
