Get ready to party, Maplers! MapleStory is turning 20, and they’re pulling out all the stops with a huge anniversary celebration packed with exciting new content and events. This major update introduces a brand-new class, the Illium, a master of magic and martial arts, plus a whole host of sports-themed events to keep you on your toes.

The Illium, MapleStory’s latest playable class, harnesses the power of an ancient magic known as Lucent Arts. Wielding a shining orb called the Lucent Gauntlet, Illium players will control their crystalline creations with elegant and fluid motions to obliterate their foes. The Illium class will be open to burning characters.

Alongside this powerful new class comes the “MapleStory 20th Anniversary” event. This event offers various minigames and activities all wrapped up in a sporty theme, perfect for celebrating two decades of MapleStory. Earn Anniversary Coins through gameplay, then redeem them for limited edition goodies and items found within the Anniversary Coin Shop. Don’t miss out on special themed chairs, damage skins and more to show off your celebratory spirit.

Mark your calendars! The celebration kicks off on April 26th. Get ready to explore a new class, dive into fun-filled events, and score some exclusive rewards. This 20th anniversary is shaping up to be a truly memorable one for MapleStory fans everywhere.
