SEOUL – Aug. 7, 2024 – Nexon’s frenetic mobile racing game KartRider Rish+ is taking players for a ride back in time in the epic Season 27, “Naval Campaign.” Inspired by the Three Kingdoms, a significant period in Chinese history, this season features all-new themed racers Guan Yu, Lin Bei and Zhang Fei Bazzi, as well as new karts to breeze by the competition, such as the Eight Gares Formation, Decoy Dinghy and Red Hare.
 
With a variety of exhilarating game modes and a unique cast of racers, KartRider Rush+ offers adrenaline-pumping fun for both the rookie racer and the seasoned pro. Featuring an abundance of customizable karts and characters, racers can get creative and experience thrilling races on the go with imaginative tracks, bright graphics and easy-to-master gameplay.

  • Speedy New Highlight Karts – In addition to the Three Kingdoms-themed karts, racers can strap into all-new highlight karts Blade Saber and Cloud Saber to leave their competition in the dust.
  • Dynamic Tracks – Throughout the season, twisting tracks will be added such as the pirate-themed Lodumani’s Cove, and the challenging War Master’s Longhouse (Norse) and The Battle of Chibi (Sword).
  • Custom Plate System – Furthering the creative elements found in KartRider Rush+, this system introduces the ability to collect frames, letters and numbers for players to freely customize their plates and ensure fellow racers know who to watch out for.
  • New Features in Rally – Now players can collect Skill Chests in the Rally tracks to gain powerful effects, such as Increased Nitro Duration. Additionally, a convenient feature has been added that allows to gift 'Time Plus Coin' to all friends at once.
  • Pets in the Shop – A "Pet" category has been added to the Shop so players can adopt an adorable pet and have a loyal companion during races.
  • Celebratory Events – To commemorate the new season, players can receive items including an Ancient Scroll Back and a Lantern Balloon by completing daily and cumulative missions, including logging in until Aug. 17 and competing in Ranked Mode. Additionally, players can hit the tracks to acquire Scroll Shards until Sept. 1, which can be traded for an Eight Gates Formation Aura, Decoy Handheld and more.
