Global MapleStory is shooting for the stars this summer with Part I of its Stargazer update, now live. This first wave of new content brings a cosmic new job, a stat-cranked world for hardcore players, and a buffet of in-game events packed with gear, EXP, and lore.
Sia Astelle Blasts In From the Stars
First introduced in MapleStory M, Sia Astelle makes her Global debut as a new playable job. Wielding the power of the cosmos, this Star Guardian harnesses constellation-themed magic to deal massive area damage through celestial combos. Expect particle-rich spells, high mobility, and stylish star-powered finishers. It’s a visual and mechanical glow-up that brings mobile flair into the flagship version for the first time.
Her arrival coincides with a looming cosmic threat: the constellations themselves are unraveling, and only Sia can restore balance to the stars.
Challenger World Cranks Up the Heat
For those looking to stress-test their skills, the new Challenger World amps up stat bonuses and EXP gain while tasking players with fierce bosses and time-sensitive missions. Complete ranked challenges to rack up points, unlock exclusive rewards, and test your mettle before leaping to an Interactive or Heroic world for the next phase of your journey.
Burn Faster, Burn Brighter: Hyper Burning MAX 1 + 4
If leveling was already fast with Hyper Burning, it’s now hyperspeed. The new Hyper Burning MAX 1 + 4 format grants four bonus levels for every level gained up to Lv. 260, letting players skyrocket through content with turbo efficiency. Whether you’re raising an alt or speeding through a main, this is the fastest way to hit high-level builds.
Feast, Fight, and Foil the Flora in Morning Star Banquet
The Morning Star Banquet event brings players face-to-face with Gerand Darmoor and his apostolic underlings. Infiltrate their grand banquet, cook up meals for rewards, cleanse monsters in the area for extra EXP, and trade resources in a trio of special shops (Coin, Badge, Meso). Stack bonuses with the Banquet’s Blessing perk and enjoy daily feast prep with meaningful payouts.
Coming in July: Crossover Madness and 6th Job Upgrades
Stargazer Part II is slated for July and already looks stacked:
- MapleStory x Dave the Diver: Dave and crew wash up in Maple World in an unexpected, whimsical crossover.
- Ride or Die Returns: Kazax is back—and so are your chances to earn rare loot by defeating new minions.
- 6th Job Mastery Nodes: Unlock Mastery Nodes 3 and 4, giving your class core skills even sharper edges.
