SAMG Entertainment Brings “Princess Catch! Teenieping” to Nexon’s KartRider Rush+

SAMG Entertainment(CEO Kim Su-hoon), the global IP content company, is bringing its flagship animation franchise “Princess Catch! Teenieping” to Nexon’s mobile racing game KartRider Rush+, marking the latest collaboration for the company as it continues to expand the brand across games and other entertainment platforms.

The crossover launches globally on July 16 (excluding Japan and mainland China) and will be available in Korean, English, Traditional Chinese and Thai.

Players will be able to unlock 33 Teenieping-themed items, including the Heartsping Speed Kart, Princess Fancyheart character and Dianaping Flying Pet, all inspired by the latest season of the animated series. The update also includes login rewards, ranked match events and community activities, along with exclusive digital items such as wallpapers and profile images through the game’s YouTube promotion.

The collaboration is based on Season 6, “Princess Catch! Teenieping”, which introduces a new generation of Princess Teenieping characters while continuing the franchise’s fantasy adventure. By bringing those characters into KartRider Rush+, SAMG Entertainment is extending the series beyond animation and consumer products, giving players another way to engage with the franchise.

The partnership reflects SAMG Entertainment’s broader strategy of expanding Catch! Teenieping through cross-platform collaborations. The franchise has grown beyond television into toys, licensing, theatrical releases and live entertainment, with a growing presence across Asian markets.

A SAMG Entertainment spokesperson said the collaboration was designed to let players experience the charm of the Teenieping characters in a different setting while introducing the franchise to a wider gaming audience.

“We see games as another way for fans to connect with the world of Catch! Teenieping”, the spokesperson said. “We’ll continue exploring collaborations across different platforms to bring the franchise to new audiences in fresh and engaging ways.”
