MapleStory 2’s Minecraft Style World Will Allow User-Created Content

Nexon’s upcoming sequel MMORPG MapleStory 2 has been revealed to be kind of a blockish, 2.5D game in nature, and there’s a reason for that: players will be able to build their own stuff.

Details revealed according to ThisisGame say that MapleStory 2 will allow users to build their own homes and even dungeons. Similar to Minecraft or LEGO bricks, you’ll stack ‘em up to create your own dream locale. This will cost in-game cash, so expect it to be a bit of a money sink.

Dungeons can also be “built” by players, similar to how several other MMO’s have gone about this route. You’ll then be able to make traps and stock it with foes, though how you obtain the latter hasn’t been revealed.

The screenshots also revealed some mounts for the game, including a griffon flying mount, sheep mounts and balloons.

MapleStory 2 is planned for release worldwide, with a Korean closed beta scheduled prior to that later this year.
