Now PUBG and Fortnite can pack their bags. Because Nexon is adding a Battle Royale mode to the cute MMORPG MapleStory 2!
The new mode of Maple Story 2 is not called Battle Royale, but it goes by the catchy name “Mush King Championship.” This was announced by the developers during a live stream, where the first gameplay scenes were also shown.
Battle Royale in a cute style
The mode operates essentially just like Battle Royale:
- 50 players are in a game area
- Everyone fights everyone
- In the end, the last survivor wins
- All of this happens in the fun and colorful anime style of the MMO
Currently, it is unclear whether this game mode will also make it into the version of MapleStory 2 for Europe and North America. Or will the Mush King Championship be introduced first in the Korean version and then made available here later with an update? The publisher still needs to comment on this.
Sign up for the Beta
If you are interested in MapleStory, you can register on the official website for the Closed Beta, which starts on May 9. First invitations have already been sent out. With a bit of luck, you can then play right at the beginning of the testing phase and see for yourself how the anime MMO plays.
After nearly three years, MapleStory 2 is now also finding its way to us.
