Climb the ranks of the Shadowdealers as Nova princess Cadena in MapleStory M’s latest update!

LOS ANGELES – September 21, 2023 –MapleStory M, Nexon’s free-to-play mobile MMORPG, is thrilled to announce the release of a new character class, Cadena, which comes with a wealth of new events for mobile Maplers to get involved in!
 

Cadena grew up in Grandis and is the sole surviving member of the Nova royal family after Magnus, a Nova warrior, became a traitor to his race and invaded Heliseum. Cadena was saved by the Royal Guard and raised by the Shadowdealers, a trade organization, where she learned to fight. The princess chose to reinvent herself by taking on the new name of Cadena and cutting off her Nova features. She now seeks to climb the ranks of the Shadowdealers while escaping the trauma of her past. Her fighting tactics have a streetwise edge, and she excels at close combat.
 

The introduction of Cadena comes with exciting events that will grant players rewards and EXP:
 

  • Cadena Growth Mission Event: Rewards available for Cadena after reaching a certain level and completing certain missions.
  • Grow with Cadena Event: Rewards and EXP granted for selected character when Cadena levels up.
  • Cadena Login Rewards: Consists of Extra Character Slot Coupon, Auto-battle Charge Ticket, Whetstone, and Pet Box to help users grow their character
 

MapleStory M’s latest update will also be improving basic quest rewards so that there are improved rewards and equal acquisition amounts across characters, as well as improving Growth Support for All rewards. That’s not everything though, as mobile Maplers can also get involved in some further limited-time events:
 

  • Full Moon Party: An event where you can acquire event coins by hunting in the field and participating in various mini-games, which you can then use at the event coin shop. It's the perfect opportunity to receive style items and growth materials for your new character!
  • Mega Burning Plus Event: A selected character may earn an additional 2 levels up to 140 every time the character levels up! All jobs selectable.
  • 5X5 Bingo Event: Participate in a Bingo Board Game and earn rewards according to the bingo count! The Bingo Board Game can be completed by clearing missions.
 

Return to MapleStory M and celebrate the arrival of Cadena!
