Everyone has a fighting chance
Now that the Black Mage has been defeated, MapleStory players are looking for the next “big thing”. On January 23rd, the development team will release an update called “New Beginnings” that will raise the level cap to 275 after more than five years where it currently stands. In addition, there will be new enemies to face off against, four celebratory events to play through and level 200 Genesis weapons to collect.
MapleStory has been updated and players can now log into the game to finally take the fight to the Black Mage. The update also brings two new Tenebris areas, a duel against Commander Verus Hilla and, of course, the “monumental battle” against the big man himself.
From today through November 28th, MapleStory players will embark on an epic journey to battle “the sinister villain”, the Black Mage. Ahead of the big fight players can take part in the Gathering of Heroes event, the first phase leading to the epic encounter. Players will join the Maple Alliance and work to prepare the armies to finally battle the Black Mage.
