About MapleStory M

MapleStory M poster

MapleStory M is a 2D side-scrolling MMORPG that carries the charm and warmth of the long-running MapleStory into a form built for a new generation of players. It faithfully recreates the feel of the original, letting you explore every corner of Maple World through towns, monsters and NPCs bursting with personality. Familiar pixel graphics paired with smooth animation give the adventure a nostalgic yet polished look.

Character variety runs deep, with dozens of jobs to choose from, including Warrior, Magician, Thief, Pirate and Archer, each carrying its own skills and combat style. Extensive customization lets you tailor a character's hair, face and outfits, so your hero stands apart from the crowd as you make your way through the world.

Leveling is designed to stay lighthearted and approachable, with systems aimed at newcomers and returning players alike, from a streamlined growth system and auto-battle options to Tera Burning. You advance through story quests, hunting, boss raids and equipment farming before tackling tougher challenges. Co-op boss raids and party play reward teamwork, letting you take on varied battle patterns solo or alongside a friend. As an MMO and RPG rooted in a beloved franchise, it brings casual, community-driven adventuring to PC.
