It is a wonderful day for Maplestory fans, and those with a deep nostalgic love for the MMOs of the beginning of 2000. Maplestory Classic World It has been announced as part of the celebration of the twentieth anniversary of the game, a recreation of the original version of the game with selected improvements of quality of life.
This version of the game, which has not yet had a release date, is being directed by the original leader of the MaplesTory team and Miyoung Oh main developer (known as Nemi) and a team “that includes what made MaplesTory early be so special.” According to her, the team is bringing the nostalgic sensation of the original game while bringing things “carefully.”
Players can create new characters and experience all the original recreated content for this modern version of the OG experience. More about Maplestory Classic World will be revealed in the coming months, with additional details about the game in the second half of 2025, with an official announcement in the official Maplestory event offline. It is not clear if this is the same event as Maplestory Fest that was held in Los Angeles last year, so it is better to be attentive to more information for finer details.
Maplestory Classic World follows the trend of the dear Mmos of the old school that date back to their roots to bring back the nolstalgic players, as we have seen with World of Warcraft, as well as Blade and Soul. These older MMO versions have proven to be exceptionally popular among their dedicated fans bases, as well as the expired players, so it is not a great shock that Wizet also returns to that particular well. Especially when he considers how big it was MaplesTory in the past. After all, you can’t build exactly a 20 -year game with anything, right?
