MapleStory Special Events

Summer just wouldn't be summer in MapleStory without some special, in-game events! It's time for the season of music and majesty, as new friend Stella comes to experience Maple World first hand. There are a wealth of rewards to collect during the musical summer nights of Starlight Symphony, plus the return of Tera Burning Plus and Burning World. On top of all that, pre-register a character (must be level 61 or above) before 11am PDT on June 13 to get a special Destiny gift package featuring Lil Symphony pets, Angelic Alphabet Damage Skin, a heap of Melody Coins to get a head start in Starlight Symphony, and a Magician of the Sacred Forest outfit!

Explorer Revamp

The Explorer class of characters in MapleStory have been the backbone of the game for the last seventeen years. These 14 unique Explorer jobs are receiving a complete overhaul of animations, improved skills, new story segments, and more. The Explorer revamp benefits the following characters:
