Nexon's blockchain masterpiece (MapleStory N) will officially launch on May 15, 2025. The official announcement was made on May 1, including pre-download links, beginner task descriptions, economic white papers, and integrated resources for launch events, providing a comprehensive understanding of this new blockchain game.
What is (MapleStory N)?
(MapleStory N) is developed by Nexpace, a team focused on blockchain game development under Nexon, operating on the exclusive subchain Henesys on the Avalanche public chain. The team has made significant optimizations to solve common problems faced by traditional blockchain games, such as:
Frequent pop-up authorizations and complicated operations
Lag and transaction failure issues under high concurrency
Lack of transparency in equipment enhancement/lottery mechanisms
How to pre-download?
The game is currently available for pre-download, but only supports PC platforms, not mobile or Mac. The official recommendation is to reserve at least 30GB of disk space to ensure smooth operation.
Step 1: Go to the pre-download page

Step 2: Connect wallet (equivalent to creating an account)
Currently only supports MetaMask (Fox Wallet).
After connecting the wallet, you can start downloading the client.
Game economy and white paper highlights
As a Web3 game, a transparent economic mechanism is crucial. (MapleStory N) emphasizes two core factors that drive the experience:
Practicality: The multifunctionality of items in different contexts
Rarity: The limitations and difficulty of obtaining items
For example: a rare bow may only drop on a specific map, and there is a daily limit of 1. This not only creates scarcity but may also have special effects, significantly distinguishing it from traditional systems of unlimited item production.

Dual-token economic model: $NXPC and $NESO
The game uses a dual-token system:
$NESO: The main circulating currency in the game. Can be obtained through tasks and events, used for purchasing content or participating in game services.
$NXPC: The core blockchain token, used for minting/redeeming limited NFTs, with a bidirectional exchange mechanism. The value of $NXPC is directly tied to the functionality of NFTs; as participation increases, its value will also enhance.
For details on the total supply, initial distribution, release mechanisms, etc., of $NXPC, please refer to the white paper: https://docs.nexpace.io/
Summary
(MapleStory N) is Nexon's flagship entry into Web3, innovating in technology, economic models, and user experience. Before the official launch on May 15, it is recommended to pre-download and set up your wallet early to enter the game as soon as possible and seize the advantage!
