Custom Races have been revamped with additional options.

Game Mode Settings for Custom Races have been added:
Game Mode Settings can be changed in the [Options - Mode] menu, and current settings can be viewed by those in the Custom Race Lobby with the [Game Information] menu.
Additional Custom Race Host controls have been added:
Close Empty Slot: Hosts can now close empty slots, preventing new Racers from joining the match in that slot.
End Race: Hosts can now end a race prematurely while it is still in progress.
Race cannot be ended if a Racer has completed the final lap.
Consumed balloons will not be restored if a race is ended prematurely.
Track Roulette: Can now select "Track Roulette" as the track option. When selected, a 20-second Track Selection pop-up will appear when the race begins, where everyone in the room will be able to select a potential track for the race, one of which will be selected randomly once the timer has elapsed.
Additional Modes have been added to Custom Races:
Solo Crossover, Squad Crossover, and Squad Flag Mode are now playable in Custom Race lobbies.
AI Racers are not available for Flag Mode races.

Graphic quality settings are now available in the Custom Race Lobby under [Settings - Graphics].
The Custom Race Lobby host can now enable the Hide Custom Race Key option in the [Settings - General] menu.

Game Balance Changes
Karts
Base Drift Acceleration values for all karts have been increased.
Decreased the effect of the Drift Acceleration stat tune-up.
The total Drift Acceleration from a kart with maximum Drift Acceleration tune-up is unchanged (based on Drift Acceleration 7).
New Character Skills
Character Skills have been added for the following characters.
[table] [tr] [td]Character[/td] [td]Category[/td] [td]Difficulty[/td] [td]Skill Name[/td] [td]Description[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Draky[/td] [td]Active Skill[/td] [td]Intermediate[/td] [td]Gauge Drain[/td] [td]Absorb the Active Skill gauge of all opposing Racers ahead of you, increasing Draky's acceleration based on the number of Racers hit (maximum of 4 opposing Racers). Targets available for the absorption are marked with a bat icon.[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Uni[/td] [td]Active Skill[/td] [td]Expert[/td] [td]Tempest Tantrum[/td] [td]Create a whirlwind that tracks the targeted Racer. Opposing Racers are strongly knocked by the whirlwind once. After the skill ends, Uni decelerates for a short time.[/td] [/tr] [/table]
Active Skill Changes
Slippery Snowflake (Pim):
No longer affects Racers on the same team as Pim.
Skill cooldowns have been increased:
Common: 26s (Previously 22s)
Fine: 24.7s (Previously 20.9s)
Rare: 23.4s (Previously 19.8s)
Heroic: 22.1s (Previously 18.7s)
Legendary: 20.8s (Previously 17.6s)
Awful Avalanche (Vivi):
No longer affects Racers on the same team as Vivi.
Skill cooldowns have been increased:
Common: 27s (Previously 22s)
Fine: 25.6s (Previously 20.9s)
Rare: 24.2s (Previously 19.8s)
Heroic: 22.2s (Previously 18.7s)
Legendary: 21.4s (Previously 17.6s)
Developer's Note: Pim and Vivi's skills were restrictive in that they did not differentiate between friend or foe. It was originally designed to limit the skill's use timing, but this restriction meant that there weren't a lot of moments when the skill could be safely used to create an advantage in Team Races, and created stress for Racers on their team who were unintentionally impacted.
So we aimed to increase the opportunities for Racers to use their skills and alleviate the pressure allies might feel by making it so that Pim and Vivi's snowballs and snowflakes only affect opposing Racers and not their allies. However, the cooldown times for both skills have been slightly increased.
Help Me, Sweeper! (Tobi):
Opposing Racers colliding with Tobi's Sweeper will now be knocked back by the impact.
Developer's Note: Tobi's skill is summoning a Sweeper that acts as a kind of mobile Barricade to disrupt the route of opposing Racers.
It can be a powerful skill based on how it's used, but there is a risk of the skill backfiring on the user or on Racers on the user's team, so we thought that the previous version didn't have enough of an impact on opposing Racers.
Sweeper will now have a different effect depending on if the target is friend of foe. An allied Sweeper will only act as a Barricade like it did before, but against opponents, Sweeper will attack them and knock them into the air.
Prettion Power (Tiera):
When used on opposing Racers, Prettion Power will now apply a deceleration effect.
Developer's Note: Tiera targets both friends and foes alike and gives herself a boost. This skill is powerful and can create various interesting situations, but some improvements were needed based on that Tiera's skill couldn't be effectively used in Solo races.
As such, Tiera's skill has been re-tooled so that when it's used against opposing Racers, it decelerates them instead of giving them a boost.
Terrible Time Bomb (Viktor):
Bombs can only be attached to opposing Racers.
Developer's Note: Viktor's skill places a time bomb on the targeted Racer and deals damage to all Racers caught in the explosion. As part of that, we made it so that if needed, bombs could be placed on allied Racers.
However, when a bomb is placed on an allied Racer by a Viktor player when communication is limited, we were concerned that bombs might be placed to harass other players, or otherwise cause misunderstandings, so we have removed that functionality.
Leaps & Bounds (Dao):
Jump strength is changed based on the number of items owned:
Developer's Note: After the increase in cooldown time for Dao's skill in a previous patch, his win rate started to climb faster compared to other characters. However his pick rate is still too high compared to the other characters, and we deduced this was a result of his skill being too easy to use, given how impactful it is.
We wanted to find a way to maintain the skill's utility while changing how it's used, and decided to have it function differently based on how many items Dao has.
From now on, depending on how many items Dao owns, the height and distance of his jump will become lower and shorter. If you don't have any items, then the jump will be the same as it was before the update.
Wave of Justice (Neo):
After being hit by Neo's skill, the period during which Instant Boost can be used is now the same as the Instant Boost Recovery period for all other attacks.
Skill cooldowns have been increased:
Common: 13s, 6.5s after first use per race (Previously 10s / 5s)
Fine: 12.3s, 6.1s after first use per race (Previously 9.5s / 4.7s)
Rare: 11.6s, 5.8s after first use per race (Previously 9s / 4.5s)
Heroic: 10.9s, 5.4s after first use per race (Previously 8.5s / 4.2s)
Legendary: 10.2s, 5.1s after first use per race (Previously 8s / 4s)
Brodi's Boost Zone (Brodi):
Skill cooldowns have been increased for all ranks:
Common: 21s, 10.5s after first use per race (Previously 19s / 9.5s)
Fine: 19.9s, 9.9s after first use per race (Previously 18s / 9s)
Rare: 18.8s, 9.4s after first use per race (Previously 17s / 8.5s)
Heroic: 17.7s, 8.8s after first use per race (Previously 16s / 8s)
Legendary: 16.6s, 8.3s after first use per race (Previously 15s / 7.5s)
Developer's Note: We concluded that Neo and Brodi's skills had cooldown times that were too brief, especially considering how effective and game-changing they can be. As a result, we have increased their cooldown times so bring them more in line with the other characters.
Additionally, when Racers are hit by Neo's skill, they had a larger window of time to use an Instant Boost compared to when they are hit by other items. As such, we have also adjusted the skill to have the same activation window as other items to maintain consistency.
Passive Skill Changes
Relentless Revenge (Rex):
This skill is now activated upon successfully using an Instant Boost after being hit by an attack that knocks Rex into the air.
Skill Activation Chance has been increased for all ranks:
Common: 70% (Previously 48%)
Fine: 72% (Previously 50%)
Rare: 74% (Previously 52%)
Heroic: 76% (Previously 54%)
Legendary: 78% (Previously 56%)
Developer's Note: Rex's skill has a chance of activating the Siren effect after being hit by a missile and then using the Instant Boost. However the number of times when characters get hit by missiles in game is quite low, and that has made the skill less effective.
So we have changed the activation condition from 'after getting by a missile' to 'after using an Instant Boost upon landing on the track following an attack' so that it has more opportunities to be activated.
The function that triggered the Siren after using the Instant Boost after spinning out when hit by a missile with a balloon equipped has been removed, because it had an awkward window of using an Instant Boost after spinning out, and because it could be confused with spinning out after being hit by other various other items such as Bananas, Sirens, etc.
Water Bomb Bouquet (Airi):
Water Bombs are now obtained at set intervals:
Common: 42s
Fine: 40s
Rare: 38s
Heroic: 36s
Legendary: 34s
Dispatched Detective (Brian):
Sirens are now obtained at set intervals:
Common: 44s
Fine: 42s
Rare: 40s
Heroic: 38s
Legendary: 36s
Developer's Note: When Airi and Brian obtain a Water Bomb and Siren respectively, they have passive skills that upgrade them to a Water Bomb Bouquet or an Enhanced Siren. Since it's only activated after obtaining specific items, we thought that it was lacking in effectiveness compared to other skills.
To better ensure Brian and Airi to use enhanced versions of the items more often, we have made it so that they obtain the Water Bomb and Siren items at regular intervals.
Extreme Velocity (Derek):
At Lv. 0, base speed is decreased.
Developer's Note: Derek's skill overcomes the item slot limit and collision restrictions and allows him to race through a track by using stacks.
Despite our concerns on that the stacking mechanic would be too difficult, we found that a lot of Racers were choosing to play as him and, according to the data, he has a higher win rate compared to other characters, so we have concluded that he's a character that's fun to play and has some good functionality.
But we have found that players are able to use the early speed advantage to increase the gap between them and whoever is in second place, and some believed that his playstyle was too efficient while also making the skill less interesting to use. As such, we adjusted the skill so the stacks have to be maintained throughout the race.
At Lv. 0 (no stacks) he will now have a slightly lower speed compared to the other base speeds.
Clairvoyance (Rivaski): The item status for Racers ahead and behind you will be easier to identify, regardless of distance.
Game Modes and Matchmaking
Mode Lab
New Modes have been added to the Mode Lab where character skills are available:
Skill Flag Mode Squad:
Base rules are the same as the standard Flag Mode, but all character skills are available.

Upon entering Overtime, cooldown times for all skills are reset.
Items that don't naturally spawn in Flag Mode won't have any effect when used, even if they are obtained through skills.

Character outfits are applied at random, regardless of whether the Racer owns that outfit.
Brodi's Big Time Blast (Solo):

Character outfits are applied at random, regardless of whether the Racer owns that outfit.

Premium Racing Pass:

5 Trophies: Cherry Blossom Tire Mark (Heroic Tire Mark)
14 Trophies: Starlight Erini (Rare Character)
Racing Pass Details:
Earn Trophies by completing Daily and Normal Challenges by racing in KartRider: Drift.
Each Challenge has different requirements, and may also impose additional conditions to complete.
Not all Challenges award the same number of Trophies. The number varies based on the difficulty or complexity of the Challenge.
Daily Challenges can be completed once per day, and begin and expire at 12:00 AM UTC.
Normal Challenges can be completed once during the noted period, and will not reset.
Leaving a race before it is completed will not count towards Challenge progress.
The win in Ranked Queue challenges is counted when ranking 1st in Solo, and when the result is a team win in Squad.
Additionally, some events will award Trophies, which can be used in the same manner as Trophies earned from Challenges.
Once earned from a Challenge, Trophies will automatically be sent to your Garage.
The number of Challenges completed in a week will also give a Clear Reward.
Racing Pass Rewards can be purchased from the Racing Pass menu by spending the Trophies you've earned.
Some Racing Pass rewards require you to obtain a certain number of total Trophies during the current Racing Pass before you can purchase them.
If you spend Trophies on a reward, those Trophies will still count towards the amount needed to unlock the purchase of other rewards.
Some Racing Pass rewards can only be purchased by those who have purchased a Premium Racing Pass.
Trophies can also be spent on the Plus Boxes:
All Racers can spend 12 Trophies to purchase the Normal Plus Box once they have redeemed all non-Premium Racing Pass rewards, which contains a previous Normal Racing Pass reward or another item, including Deep Sea Brodi (Rare Character) and Steamshark (Rare Kart).
Racers with a Premium Racing Pass can also spend 12 Trophies to purchase the Premium Plus Box once they have redeemed all Racing Pass rewards, which contains a previous Premium Racing Pass reward or another item, including Burglar Vivi (Rare Character) and Dark Knight (Rare Kart).
If you receive a duplicate item from a Plus Box that does not stack, you will instead receive Mileage, which can be exchanged in the Item Shop for a selection of items.
The full list of items in the Normal and Premium Plus Boxes and their odds of being obtained can be viewed by selecting the box in question and pressing the [View Contents] button.
All unused Trophies will expire at the end of the Racing Pass period.
