MapleStory Blitz Launches First Update, Adds New Cards, Challenges, and Events

The free to play Clash Royale esque MapleStory game MapleStory Blitz launched its first content update this week which introduced 36 new Zakum themed cards, a new dungeon, balance changes, and more. MapleStory Blitz is basically a 3 lane Clash Royale / Southpark: Phone Destroyer esque game based on Nexon's popular MapleStory franchise.

Full list of changes:

  • Devastating Original Cards – Combine 36 unique cards found in Zakum’s Altar card pack with all the original cards;
  • Challenging New Dungeon – Join players around the globe and explore the perilous Zakum’s Altar dungeon;
  • Ranked Mode Enhancements – Ranked Match Season durations have been shortened from one month to two weeks;
  • Formidable PvE Battles – The PvE auto-battle feature allows players to seamlessly jump into PvE combat;
  • PvE/PvP Battle Guide – A helpful battle guide has been added to recommend which cards to use in specific battle situations;
  • Balance Adjustments – Players will notice additional balance adjustments for existing monster and skill cards;
  • Unique Events and Quests – Celebrate the update with several new events and quests.

Nexon has been trying to release a mobile hit in the West for some time now. MapleStory M seems to be the most comprehensive mobile MapleStory title thus far though in my opinion. Too bad it has the same auto-play systems found in most other mobile MMORPGs.
