The cat is out of the bag, as Nexon kept its promise of announcing MapleStory 2's official launch date today. The highly anticipated MapleStory 2 will be officially released starting October 10, 2018, but if you want to begin playing on October 1 – the usual head start – you have to purchase a Founder's Pack from the three available offers.
However, everyone will be able to play MapleStory 2 before October 10, as its standalone Battle Royale mode Mushking Royale will open today, August 22, 2018 until October 1, 2018. This is part of the Pre-Season and every player will be able to login and create a character that will be carried into MapleStory 2's official release. As for the main MapleStory 2 game, it will launch with the new Runeblade class and 12 new dungeons.
