Happy Sweet 16, MapleStory!

MapleStory has come a long way since its launch in North America back on May 11, 2005. Many a Mapler started the journey as an Explorer in Maple World. Now comes the age where Maplers fight against a new threat as an Adversary after the Black Mage's demise. Many of you have grown up with MapleStory, making friends, having wild adventures, and exploring the vast towns of Maple World. MapleStory is like no other and it holds a special place in many Maplers' hearts and memories (including ours). We wouldn't be here without you, and all of us on the MapleStory Team would like to thank each and every one of our Maplers; from FashionStory Henehoes, the Quest Specialists, the 275 Before It Was Cool Maplers, to the Min/Maxers. We've been through so much together, and we're here to stay for all that's sure to come next! Cheers to 16 years of Global MapleStory!
