Main Idea
MapleStory Universe is a new crypto-fueled ecosystem for the MapleStory game series, with MapleStory N being its PC-based MMORPG that integrates NFTs on the Avalanche blockchain. Nexon's blockchain arm, Nexpace, is developing multiple complementary experiences to expand the ecosystem and combat hacking issues.
Key Points
1. MapleStory N is a PC-based MMORPG that uses NFTs on the Avalanche L1 gaming network, Henesys, for in-game items.
2. Nexon's blockchain arm, Nexpace, plans to launch a dozen mobile and web experiences by Q1 2026 to complement MapleStory N.
3. Keith Kim, head of strategy at Nexpace, highlighted the challenge of making the game more accessible beyond PC, comparing it to EA FC’s Ultimate Team model.
4. MapleStory N faces significant hacking issues, with thousands of accounts banned daily to maintain game integrity.
5. Nexpace is engaging third-party developers to expand the MapleStory Universe, with plans to reward contributors with NXPC tokens.
