Hi Maplers! Welcome to the Global MapleStory Classic World Closed Online Test. This is a huge moment for us to have our players hop on the game and get feedback from the community before the official launch.

\n

So what’s the goal here? We want you to explore as much as you can. Some things will feel familiar and some things have been changed or are brand new! Fight enemies, try out the jobs, explore the islands, test the systems, and most importantly, tell us what you think.

\n

We want to know what works, what doesn’t and what we may have missed that could make your Global MapleStory Classic World experience even better. Here’s how you can share your feedback:

\n
    \n
  • Join our official MapleStory Discord - We have Closed Online Test channels where you can share your feedback, suggestions, and discuss anything you experience during Closed Online Test with other testers!
    • \n
  • Found a bug? Report them over in our Discord Closed Online Test bug-reports channel.
    • \n
  • Player Support is available for technical and account-related issues only. If you’re running into something related to that you can submit a ticket here.
    • \n
  • When the Closed Online Test is over, we’ll be sending out a survey to gather your feedback as well!

This event is all about exploring, grinding, testing out your job and skills! As you fight enemies and explore different areas, monsters will drop letters that you can collect and exchange for Leaf Points. It’s the currency you'll use to test items out in the Cash Shop. Think of this as an opportunity to try out your skills, test different mobs, and let us know how it feels overall!

\n

\n
Requirements
\n
Lv. 10 and above characters

During the Closed Online Test period, the Cash Shop will have its own currency called Leaf Points. Explore the Cash Shop to its fullest, browse around, and try things out because Fashion Story might just be end game!

\n
    \n
  • NX from your existing account cannot be used during the test period.
    • \n
  • The Gifting feature will be restricted.
    • \n
  • Items in the Cash Shop may have expiration dates.
    • \n
  • Pets will have a 7-day duration during the Closed Online Test period so players can test out the Water of Life item.
    • \n
  • All Cash Shop purchases will be deleted from your account when the Closed Online Test ends.
    • \n
\n

For the Closed Online Test, we’ve set the price for all items in the Cash Shop to be 100 Leaf Points so you can have the opportunity to try out as many items as possible with the Leaf Points you earn from events. Cash Shop prices in Closed Online Test are not final and what you see is for testing purposes only and are subject to change before the official launch. Have suggestions or feedback about the Cash Shop? How about a Leaf Point for your thoughts? Send them our way HERE.
