Maplestory2 is coming out in CBT this year(2011)

Completely new game, completely new engine.

Maplestory is quite old. Why rework the entire engine to bring it up to date? Its not like it pumps that much money out like other MMOs.

EDIT: It also means they're gonna milk the pineapple out of Maplestory 1 til its last breath most likely. If Maplestory 2 goes well, they'll stop development for Maplestory 1, the servers will still run until it doesn't make enough profit.

Gunbound Thor's Hammer->Gunbound World Champion->Gunbound Revolution->Gunbound you still play this crap->Gunbound ???
