The June Closed Beta Begins!
Start your engines, the June Closed Beta has begun! Whether you're on Nexon Launcher, Steam or Xbox One, all of our Closed Beta participants can start racing! The Closed Beta runs until 6:00 AM PDT on Wednesday, June 10, so you have almost a full week to give it a go and let us know what you think!
Be sure to take a look at the Closed Beta FAQ article if you have any difficulties. We will update it with additional information as needed.

Also, throughout the Closed Beta, we'll be showing off some examples of KartRider: Drift's more amusing possibilities, giving everyone that logs in colorful new Karts to play with and enjoy!
We want to get as much feedback from as many people as possible on the progress of KartRider: Drift, and so we're giving out a prize to everyone that joins in! Everyone that plays this Closed Beta will be given a special White Cloud Balloon cosmetic item to follow you around as you race around when KartRider: Drift is officially released!
[h2]Where Can I Give Feedback?[/h2]
A survey will be sent out to all participants via email once the Closed Beta is complete. Additionally, we'd love to hear your thoughts as you dive into KartRider: Drift. Head over to the KartRider: Drift Official Forums, particularly the Closed Beta Feedback sub-forum, to discuss your thoughts with your fellow Racers, and let us know what you like, what you love, and what needs to be improved. We're looking forward to seeing what you have to say!
[h2]How do I Redeem my Code?[/h2]
Everyone selected to join the KartRider: Drift June Closed Beta will have been sent an email with their own Beta codes, and you can find instructions about how to redeem the codes at the links below. Players that participated in the December Closed Beta will not need to redeem a key on the platform they had played on, but will need to do so to play KartRider: Drift on other platforms.
