MapleStory M’s Summer Update Brings Hayato to the Game

LOS ANGELES – July 25, 2024 – MapleStory M, Nexon’s free-to-play mobile MMORPG, has launched its summer update featuring Hayato, the Sengoku Warrior. From a new job to new weapons, inventory updates, and events – there’s something for every Mapler. 

Players can start exploring the new playable class Hayato, also known as The Bladed Falcon, and receive an extra character slot coupon, auto-battle charge ticket, whetstone, and pet box in order to grow their character. Players also have a growth mission event, burning event, and mega burning plus event to look forward to with the update. Both events will have rewards for reaching designated levels, and special bonuses when the character is leveled up.

This summer’s update includes changes to the Inventory Slots Expansion and the stacking limit of Commander Expedition Reward items. Burning characters will be able to use growth elixir items and there will be a new transparent weapon added to the arsenal. 

In addition, MapleStory M’s latest update will include the 6th-anniversary update of Yeti’s M Store. Maplers will be able to participate in various mini-games and events to earn rewards: 

  • Login and 14-Day Attendance Sheet Events: An event that provides special 6th-anniversary rewards to all users who log in during the event period, and special rewards for logging in during the 14 days of the event
  • Let’s Go! M Store Delivery: Mini-game where players move their characters to collect given materials and deliver them to the store within a set time
  • Takeout Rush Event: Mini-game where players must quickly select and touch the button that matches the given image
  • Yeti’s M Store Coin Shop: A shop where players can purchase items by collecting event coins through various means
  • Today’s Dessert (Daily Content Event): An event where stamps are acquired each time a Dungeon ticket is used during the event period, which can be accumulated to obtain rewards
  • Dessert Cleanup Grand Battle!: Mini-game where players can swap the positions of adjacent ingredients on an 8×8 board to align three or more identical ingredients in a row

Further updates include the Starlight Reward Point shop, an event where players can purchase special products via points, and a store where decorative items can be bought with Crystals. 

Additional events include a First Purchase event where first-time purchases can receive additional rewards, a Star Force Enhancement Hot Time Event that will include a Star Force enhancement discount and Perfect Time, an Accessory Shift Event where players can transfer Boss Accessories to other characters within the same account by using event coins, and the August 2024 Attendance sheet where participation will be available for each account.
