Nexon Mobile has announced that its iOS racing title KartRider Rush has surpassed three million downloads since its debut in early March, noting that the game saw its first one million downloads just a week after hitting the App Store.

"We are appreciative and excited about the tremendous reaction we’ve received from players all over the world," said JeongMin Han, Nexon Mobile’s team leader. "We will continue to work and develop new, exciting content for our players, giving them more challenges and fun."

KartRider Rush is based on Nexon's popular free-to-play KartRider on PC, which has over 200 million registered users worldwide.

Currently, the game is available on the iTunes App Store for 99 cents, and includes includes 12 tracks, eight characters, and six Karts.

Earlier this year, Nexon America announced that revenue for the company had increased year-over-year, and CEO Daniel Kim partially attributed the growth to the company's expansion into mobile and social games.
