Dear Racers,

we hereby announce that we will stop hosting Drift City by March 2012. But that doesn’t mean the end for Drift City. Far from it!

Together with the development studio npluto we are currently working on the merge of the US and EU versions of Drift City. As we do this, we are trying to keep as many account information active as possible.

We had a first downtime today, January 18th, 6am CET. For about an hour we were running first database-tests to see what account information will be transferable. Up until February 19th you will be able to continue playing Drift City.

On February 20th we will freeze the game’s database. From then on it won’t be possible to spend S-Points or save your game’s progress anymore.

From March 1st on you will be able to participate in the transfer of your user account. This process will be open for six months, so you have plenty of time to have your account transferred into the new version of the game.

More information as to how this process will work and which account information exactly will be transferred will be announced here soon. So make sure to check back regularly! One thing we can already announce is that it will not be possible to transfer your S-Point balance. So we will disable the possibility to buy new S-Points on February 1st. You can still spend the S-Points that you already have on your account until the database freeze on February 19th.

We hope that just like us you are looking forward to an all new, bigger and better Drift City!

Yours Drift City-Team
