[Fixed] Season 3 Coupon Lucci Distribution

[Update 08:00 AM UTC JUL 14] This issue has been fixed.

Hey Racers,

We are aware of an issue with the redemption of the Spyder Kart Special Gift. When redeeming the coupon code on the Redeem Coupon page of the Nexon website, it only gives the Spyder kart and not the Lucci.

For Racers who didn't get the Lucci, it will be given out after checking the coupon redemptions regularly once a week.

If you have not yet redeemed the coupon code, please use the in-game redemption function in the [Settings - Manage Account - Apply Coupon] menu. This will allow you to properly receive both the Spyder kart and the Lucci.

Lucci Distribution Details
- Target: Racers who didn't receive the Lucci when redeeming the Season 3 Spyder Kart Special Gift coupon code using the Redeem Coupon page of the Nexon website.
- Reward: 10,000 Lucci
- Schedule: Lucci will be sent via batch distribution to the in-game mailbox based on the schedule below.
