MapleStory Worlds Soft Launch Now in Americas, Europe on Mobile and PC

Fans of the MapleStory franchise have reason to celebrate as the latest addition, MapleStory Worlds, has now hit soft launch in both the Americas and Europe! This exciting new release, which first soft-launched in late 2024, is now available on both mobile and PC platforms, bringing the beloved universe to a wider audience.

MapleStory Worlds can be thought of as a 'Roblox for MapleStory,' where players can harness both basic and advanced tools to craft their own side-scrolling adventures. Whether you're into classic MapleStory-style RPGs, shooting games, or simply socializing with others, the possibilities are vast. The game supports cross-platform play, allowing seamless interaction between mobile and PC users.

Nexon has highlighted the monetization potential for creators in both trailers and testimonials, but for many fans, the real draw will be the ability to recreate and enhance classic MapleStory experiences using new tools.

While I'm personally intrigued by MapleStory Worlds, I must admit to a hint of skepticism. The franchise's gorgeous, crunchy pixel aesthetic is undeniably appealing, yet the response from long-time fans has been somewhat reserved. However, MapleStory Worlds offers a variety of experiences, from platformers to zombie survival games, which might make it more appealing as a standalone platform. The true test will come during the soft launch period and upon its official release.
