The massive free-to-play MMO, MapleStory M, has just received a major update to celebrate the Summer season. The Summer update rebalances all nine classes in the game, ups the level cap from 200 to 220, and opens up two new hunting fields: the Ellin Forest and the Dead Mine. The Root Abyss Expedition also now has a second dungeon boss in the form of the clown Pierre, who fights differently depending on the color of his hat. Players who complete the Root Abyss expedition will also receive special rewards and Root Abyss exchange currency that can be traded-in for exclusive buff items and equipment.
The update also includes the following additions:
- Lotus Leaf Collection Event: Until July 1, this event allows players to collect lotus leaves while hunting on the open field. Players will be rewarded with items that will help them collect experience, as well as a special Cody item.
- Surprise M Attendance Sheet Event: From July 8 to July 27, a special attendance sheet will be activated from the day of a player’s first log-in for 14 days. Players will receive rewards that will help them collect experience points, level up equipment and receive a special Cody item.
- Rock, Paper, Scissors Mini-Event: From July 15 to July 28, Maplers will be able to participate three times a day in a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors and earn coins. Players can reap rewards that can help them collect experience points, level up equipment and receive a special Cody item.
The game will also be receiving another update in July to celebrate its second anniversary, with more details on the event set to come in the near future. If this interests you, you can check out MapleStory M on the App Store and the Play Store.
