Nitro Nation Online (alternatively referred to as Nitro Nation Racing) is a racing game for Android, iOS, Windows Phone and Samsung devices. The game was first announced on September 17, 2013 as Beta preview.[29] On April 3, 2014 the Beta was completed and a full release of Nitro Nation Online was launched on Google Play.[30]
The game is divided into 2 areas of play, career and multiplayer. Career mode is a single player event, which unlocks game features as the game progresses. Several multiplayer modes are available.
Aggregate review website GameRankings assigned a score of 75/100 based on reviews from 2 critics.[31]
Media reception to Nitro Nation Online has been generally positive, Pocket Gamer giving it a rating of 7/10, remarking that "It's almost dangerously simple to pick up and play, and that desire to shave seconds off your time becomes habit-forming in a few plays."[32]
PocketMeta offered mixed criticism with a combined total score of 22/25, praising "Nitro Nation Online is a beautiful drag racing game with a vibrant online community that will make you jealous of the luxurious cars of the best of the crop on the leader boards. Very rich gallery of customization options and achievements create addictive and rewarding game play while competing against other players allows you to feel a sense of belonging to the drag racing community." and deriding "...loading times and the difficulty of upgrading without resorting to in-app purchases. Other than that, it's a must-have item on your Android tablet."[33]
This sentiment is backed up by GameZone which giving an 8.5/10 rating, states "Fast and addictive gameplay makes for a fun gameplay experience, while the fast customization options add a layer of addiction to the game. Racing with other players and climbing the leader boards is by far the game's best aspect for me." Losing some ratings due to "Having to lose a few races every time just to gain some money to upgrade and progress further makes the game feel like a grind and this is compounded with loading times that exceed gameplay time. That being said, the game is still the most addictive and fun racing game I have played on my mobile gaming device and is sure to give players countless hours of fun."[34]
