The long awaited mobile version of MapleStory is finally going to be live real soon! In fact, you can already return to the expansive MMORPG world and rekindle with all the familiar characters and monsters right now!
Nexon announced 2 days ago that MapleStory M is now available on the Google Play Store for limited time beta testing - until 30 Jan 2018, 4:00PM GMT +8. You can access the "Early Access" section of the Play Store here.
Unlike Pocket MapleStory, MapleStory M focuses on the classic MapleStory experience, including group quests and other social events.
The game will offer the following key features:
Select Five Original Classes - For those who are jumping in to try the game now, you'll get to select a class from Dark Knight, Bowmaster, Bishop, Corsair and Night Lord.
Level Cap - The current max level is 120.
Jewel System - Bejewel your character with Jewels that can be found in dungeons and raids to increase character stats.
Forge System - Upgrade your existing equipment by recycling unused armor and weapons to forge and empower the stats.
Daily Quests & Rewards - Players can hunt for loots by completing daily dungeon or daily quests to earn jewels and mesos.
Grinding Private Mini Dungeons - Players can also powerlevel or farm specific quest items in their very own mini dungeon.
Exploring Nett's Pyramid - Hop in on an adventure fighting your way through waves of mummies and pharaohs with up to 4 players in Nett's Pyramid to unearth precious treasures.
Accessing Shop from Anywhere - Players will no longer required to travel to town to unload or sell items when inventory becomes full. You can sell items anywhere for mesos.
MapleStory M will feature five classes at launch, with additional classes to be added in the future.
The game was released initially in Korea in October 2016, and it was the #1 free game on both App Store and Google Play Store. It will be available on the App Store later this year as well.
