Good questions, quick answers.
What is MapleStory Classic World?
MapleStory Classic World is Nexon’s classic-style MapleStory experience, with its own gameplay adjustments and features. This independent fan site covers Classic World rather than the modern game or a private server.
When did MapleStory Classic World launch?
Nexon’s Grand Launch release notes list October 21, 2026 at 18:00 UTC. That is 11:00 AM PDT, 2:00 PM EDT, and October 22 at 2:00 AM in Beijing.
What are the first jobs?
Warrior, Magician, Bowman, and Thief. Each first-job advancement is available at level 10; the second advancement is at level 30.
What is the level cap?
The Grand Launch release notes set the maximum character level at 100.
Can I play on Mac or with a controller?
The Grand Launch supports Windows and macOS, plus Xbox and PlayStation controllers. Enable Controller Support in Game Options; it is off by default.
Why can’t a new account trade?
All trading features become available 24 hours after a character on the account reaches level 15. Reaching level 15 starts that waiting period.
