Can it already be five years since MapleStory hit the global scene? Well, after five years of monster-bashing, GM events and more Pink Bean battles than you can track, this adventure’s just getting started! That’s why we’re taking the month of May to boogie down and party hearty while we celebrate a half decade of the most amazing story ever told!

Cake vs. Pie!

Forget Olympians vs. heroes, the real clash of the titans is the ultimate battle between epic forces of Cake and Pie! Where will you pledge your allegiance? Join the Cake or Pie faction and prepare to join the struggle. Maple World, much like your favorite dessert, is up for grabs!




More information coming soon!


It’s Raining Buffs

Nothing’s going to spoil our Fifth Anniversary Party--not even the weather. Even when it rains in the month of May, it’ll be awesome because it’s going to be raining GM Buffs in every major town every weekend for 30 seconds, three times a day! This will be true on the day of the anniversary, May 11th too, of course!




But make sure to visit your favorite town a little before the below times because you’ll only get the buff if you’re already in town when it begins to rain!




Five Year Reunion

You are cordially invited to a reunion of old friends you haven’t seen in years! Take a trip down memory lane and revisit some old NPCs you haven’t talked to for a while and do their quests. The door prize for this reunion is tons of EXP for each repeatable quest, but this reunion is only going on for one week!





Fifth Anniversary Rings

Let everyone know that you were there with a fine, FREE commemorative fifth anniversary rings!



More information coming soon!


Classic Maple Weapons

After five years there’s no rust on these beauties! Find all 20 classic Maple Weapons as drops all over Maple World!




Dragon Rider Party Quest

Uh oh. Looks like there’s an unwelcome guest crashing MapleStory’s Fifth Anniversary. All high-level Maplers will have access to a Party Quest that lets you fly and fight an interloping fire-breathing dragon! This party’s by invitation only, pal!



More information coming soon!

Same old, same old

Oh nice, Dragon Rider pq.

Durability items

This is the most unexciting patch note ever.
I love PQs and all the new other stuff but MapleStory is in desperate need of actual content, i.e, new places and monsters.

Let me cross my fingers since it's still early.

looks like the ring will die after 3 months judging by the CS icon on it. And i spy platinum karma scissors on that neo eclipse

I don't think those rings have any effects that contribute to gameplay to begin with.

im sure they dont lol, just the effect like a normal cs ring.

Looks like a fail anniversary.

So does this means gms is adding their own list of things to be platinum scissored? If so S>mons?

The ring says "I'm back!" so you probably have to get it from not logging on often or something. Either way, it looks stupid.

If there's not a repeat of Tienk's event from last year with monsters from the lower level limited areas added in I will not be a happy camper.

Yey. Nexon fails us on the anniversary! Big surprise gift nexon gave us there!

Weird that there aren't tons of 2x events like in the other anniversaries.

It's free, and it's Nexon, so I'd lean towards 3 days.

Pretty much what I expected, minus Ghost Ship PQ and skill updates, but we've still got a week for them to be announced. Or they might just sneak them in.

Boring so far, hopefully there'll be better info as time goes on to the next patch.

I will go crazy.
-only 20 boss cards-

This makes the anniversary suddenly depressing.

Where's ma GHOST SHIP PQ?

I is sad.

The Dragon Rider is nice, but not enough.
