MapleStory 2


Maplestory 2 is the 3D sequel to Nexon's hugely successful 2D MMO, Maplestory. Set before the original, Maplestory 2 offers players a fresh take on an old favorite with a cute, blocky graphic style that manages to capture some of the original MMO's charm, while switching between isometric and the classic 2D view.

Using this new art-style, Maplestory 2 gives players the opportunity to explore a multitude of colorful environments, with plenty of chances to discover hidden areas and special events. Environemnts are somewhat destructible, with players able to cut down trees and knock over blocks. They may even use objects from the environment in combat. Speaking of combat, Maplestory 2 retains the original's fast paced gameplay, with characters chaining together multiple abilities for great effect. Boss battles take up large areas of a map, which often times result in the boss destroying huge portions of their blocky surroundings.

Outside of combat, players can participate in a myriad of mini-games, including some built by other players. Using the in-game editor, players can even build special dungeons complete with a variety of monsters, traps, and triggered events to overcome.

Maplestory 2 features non-instanced housing, with players able to build their own houses block by block, while decorating it's interior with special items. These items can range from chests to keep your extra gear, to mannequins which you can dress up with your favorite costume sets. Doing so gives players the ability to swap between these costumes while on the go.

Game is genuinely loads of fun. Loads to do you can choose from eg. main storyline, trophy hunting, side quests, fishing to complete fish encyclopedia, design player house etc.
A decent amount of content is unlocked at lv 50 such as higher difficulty dungeons and farming monsters for their pet version. Main storyline will take you to lv 50 and give you decent armour along the way, can be rushed just to hit high lv or taken slowly to get the story experience, not too difficult though.
Lots of raids unlocked at various levels, each one has a cosmetic item that can be unlocked by grinding the raid, mounts and pets are abundant, events are really fun, trophy hunting will get you cool stuff like gestures, mounts, etc.
Definitely give this game a try, loads to do

I still love the MapleStory 1, the 2d cartoon graphics really unparalleled till now, as well as those BGMs. You can buy mesos from 5mmo by coupon "5mmocs". it's not a spam but the innermost feelings. MapleStory buried in my heart since v062.

MP2 in my opinion, is totally different that any other MMORPG or blocky game, mainly because it combines this two things, something that no one have ever did, making it unique!
(I am from Brazil, so do not mind if there are any mistakes)

Played the original game for years but I will have to say it is a money based enterprise and not very customer service oriented. Original game was filled with hackers/scammers and dealing with in game problems such as wrongful banning (game has/had an auto banning feature) took nearly a year to received a response. Even then it was a generic reply of we are giving banned accounts a second chance etc. etc. instead of addressing the original email. In the end the overall problems with the game concerning customer service/hackers/scammer over shadowed the fun of playing this game.

wow, this brings back memories. so long since I even saw anything maple story related. game is definitely an upgrade in terms of technology, but block landscape? I don't know. It'd be nice if they can change the block sizes to be smaller to make things more rounded out where they need to be. after all, it wasn't an 8-bit, but rather a 16-bit game. but to be completely honest, it'd be nice if they could make proper three dimensional detailed landscape rather than paste bulky blocks together. it'll never be the same unless there's more of the details for those epic skyships or trees.

Lets just make clear that US, EU and other (categorized) fan/target market base for Nexon makes up almost 6%. In reality, this is getting a lot of positive feedback in Korea, and I doubt Nexon is getting any lazier... I mean, they have been running as a public company for about 7 years now (I think) and are still running hard. The massive majority of their customers are happy and/or satisfied, and probably didnt fully focus on US or EU, even though they did say they are going to do a global release.

My original aran's name from 2008^ but anyways, since they started coming up with new jobs constantly, the game has gone far downhill. I have some great memories on there, but once they started adding jobs after the resistance, it started dying as a game. I dont think ms 2 will bring in as much new attention as they think. They had a nice golden age, but I think the decline will continue, sadly :(

I've heard that Maplestory 2 is officially released on July 7th. Is the Korean version being released on that day? What about their announcements of it being global? If anyone knows which version it is, could you possibly reply to this comment and inform me of it. T^T

P.s- I sound sooo damn serious in this comment lolol. :p

i watched it once and i was highly against it and thought it was the dumbest idea i have ever seen in a long time. however i kept re watching the video and the more i saw how the game was the more i began to like the idea. i have watched the video about 10-15 times now and my only 2 concerns are 1, there seems to be ALOT of random stuff in there and i hope they don't focus to much on that and forget the actual game aspect of it, secondly (and more importantly) i'm unsure of how i will like (if i do like) the combat system, it seems like you would almost be better off trying to make the combat a gird based turn by turn game (however i know many many players would be turned off by this) so i'm unsure how the actual combat will be to play.

I came on this site to read about a game but instead found myself shocked by the poor level of basic grammar and spelling of those who left comments.

Is it something inherent in MS players (I have noticed the same on several other MS related forums/articles) or is this just the state of education today?

Shame on you Nexon. This just looks like they put Maple Story and Minecraft together. Yes it looks smoother than Minecraft but all it is, is just the characters aren't 8-bit pixel characters. This is a great upset.
