Nexpace, a blockchain company backed by South Korean gaming giant Nexon, announced Thursday that its Web3 expansion of the popular MapleStory franchise will launch on May 15.
The new game, MapleStory N, will blend the franchise's traditional 2D side-scrolling gameplay with crypto assets on the Avalanche blockchain, allowing players to own and trade in-game assets on-chain. The studio has launched its own dedicated Avalanche L1 chain called Henesys, which went live in April.
"The launch of MapleStory N marks the culmination of years of development, rigorous user testing, and unwavering community support," said Nexpace CEO Sunyoung Hwang, in a statement. "This isn't just the release of a new game; it's the beginning of a new chapter in gaming history."

The release date announcement follows extensive playtesting that generated over 31.5 million on-chain transactions, the firm said, with nearly one million digital wallets registered during the test period.
MapleStory N will feature what Nexpace calls "Reward Experience 2.0," allowing players to issue, trade and manage in-game items on a blockchain. The game will also include mechanisms for players to contribute content and be rewarded with ecosystem tokens.

After four years of watching Web3 games struggle to find their audience, Yield Guild Games decided the industry had to rethink how it matches players with the kind of games they're actually in for: lighthearted chaos, in a "casual degen" vibe. Instead of chasing broad mainstream adoption, the guild protocol launched YGG Play, a new game publishing unit dedicated to games that embrace the degen culture, with LOL Land, a web browser-based game explicitly designed for crypto-native players who live...
Four years after attracting $203 million in NFT land sales, Ethereum game Ember Sword has shut down, with developer Bright Star Studios citing a lack of funding required to continue its operations.

But in today’s market—where even some of the most promising projects are shutti...
