Maplestory 2 is Shutting Down – Dates and Info

It truly is a sad day in MMORPG history. Maplestory 2 is planning to completely shut down on May 27th, 2020.

The original post on Nexon’s blog.

Nexon has been trying to make Maplestory 2 more successful and revamped it ever since Project New Leaf. This has sadly not resulted in an influx of newer players. Currently, according to steam charts, Maplestory 2 sits at only 520 average players.

Project New Leaf did make a large impact on the player base, with the peak players skyrocketing up to 3,000 players a year ago. However, this uptick was short-lived and ever since Maplestory 2 has slowly been “dying” as many MMO players would put it.
