Nexon - MapleStory 2 screenshot spotted


While going through a Japanese gaming website for news, I chanced upon the latest financial reports for Nexon. While it is indeed strange for a Korean-based company to have its full financial information on a Japanese website, 2 gems were discovered. Can you find them in the picture below?


Yes, the pictures actually shows what the studios under Nexon are working on, with Wizet showing a preview of MapleStory 2 and DevCat showing a new screenshot of Mabinogi 2. I know the resolution ain't ideal, but hey, it is a find after all :) Other info in the picture shows how many staff each studio has, with the recently purchased Ndoors tops with 205 employees.


Financial wise, Nexon's 2011 sales increased by 26% compared to 201, while revenue increased by a whopping 27%. Strangely, there is no mention of GameHi, another studio which Nexon acquired recently.

That just looks awful! I actually prefer the 2D style, atleast when it comes to Maplestory..Too bad they're changing the looks that much. Looks like a 2.5D game now, but then again..It just might succeed and become even greater and better than the original Maplestory. Hopefully all the monsters will stay and the music!

compared to 201? That's 1811 years of moderate but not great success.

looks like maplestory, which is good ofcourse, but i dont know about being 3d, i think alot of the succes of maplestory 1 was how you could run it on basicly anything,i think it would be better if it was just higher resolution, more detailed 2d, kinda like how latale basicly looks like maplestory but better
