Nexon's KartRider: Drift to Cease Operations Worldwide
Nexon announces the global shutdown of KartRider: Drift, the mobile, console, and PC racing game launched in January 2023. However, the Asian servers (Taiwan and South Korea) will remain operational, undergoing a significant update.
Will Asian Servers Also Shut Down?
No, the Asian versions will continue, though Nexon hasn't detailed the planned changes. There's also no word on a potential relaunch of the global version.
Global Shutdown Date?
Nexon hasn't revealed a specific date for the global shutdown, but it will occur later this year. The game is currently still available on the Google Play Store.
Reasons for Global Shutdown:
Despite efforts to provide a smooth global experience, KartRider: Drift faced significant challenges:
- Heavy Automation: Players criticized the game's excessive automation, leading to repetitive gameplay.
- Technical Issues: Optimization problems on some Android devices and numerous bugs further hampered the game's reception.
Due to these issues, Nexon is prioritizing the PC versions in Korea and Taiwan, aiming to refine the game's core experience.
