Creative Mobile, the creators of racing game Nitro Nation, have released a sizable update for the game. For starters, there’s a new mechanic who can both create and upgrade blueprints.

Cars can also be traded in for one of the following three: cash, a booster package that’s random, or an upgrade kit for cars that are racing class.
