Winter Cabin Update


As the New Year approaches, the animals have lit a bonfire outside the cabin, with flickering flames reflecting off the pristine snow. A few little animals are having a snowball fight, with snowballs tracing arcs in the air. Everyone is busy planning how to decorate the cabin, aiming to give it a fresh look on the 20th.



New Christmas Outfits


The animals have donned their Christmas outfits, adding a festive touch to the winter season. These outfits will debut in the Item Shop on December 20th as limited-time holiday exclusives, lasting until January 3rd of the following year.

To celebrate Christmas, all newly released Christmas outfits will be available at a 50% discount when gifted to a friend!



Returning Christmas Outfits


Christmas oufits from previous years will also make a limited-time return from December 24th to December 26th!



New Track: Formula Wild


Despite the cold, the animals remain full of excitement, racing on the newly constructed track. The course is still under construction, with construction vehicles and taxis occasionally disrupting the path, but that hasn’t dampened their enthusiasm. Eager to get started, they’ve already hit the road with new cars!

During the Christmas season, Snowmobile and Puppy will also receive new decorations. These will debut on the 20th as limited-time holiday exclusives, lasting until January 3rd of the following year.



Snowstorm on Tracks


On the familiar tracks of Nemo Kart, occasional snowstorms bring a seasonal twist. The entire tracks becomes blanketed in heavy snow. Amid this snowy wonderland, gingerbread men can be seen leisurely pacing in the distance. Their appearance raises curiosity—could they be preparing Christmas presents for everyone? Perhaps the next race will reveal the answer! (The snowstorm event starts on the 20th and lasts until February 3rd of the following year.
