Remember MMORPG MapleStory? Well, you won’t recognise it in Nexon’s mobile take on the world, MapleStory Blitz.

Rather than make a smaller RPG, Nexon has instead taken the themes and settings of the game and used it to make a Clash Royale-style card-based MOBA.

Players battle in real-time PvP online matches, sending their units down one of three lanes and trying to topple their opposition before they get crushed.

You’ll need to build up a deck of cards to fight with, and level them up as you go so you don’t get wiped out by the competition.

The sixth update adds an emoji-based communication system, updates the tutorial, changes how heroes are acquired, adds a navigation system for beginners, and makes some other balance changes and bug fixes.

The ninth update brought with it a new season that included a new battleground called Zakum’s Altar and a new card pack. 

The 10th update introduces the new Brand Battle Mode, a PvP arena that introduces a new set of rules such as the “Spear meets Shield” mode which grants players powerful decks to take on equally powerful opponents.  

The 11th update, otherwise known as the Luminous update, added a new character along with event quests and a guaranteed hero supply package.

The 12th update added a new battleground called the Temple of Time.  

The 13th update introduced a new hero called Aran, the Master of the polearm.

The 14th update put up 300 NCoins and 30,000 Mesos for new players, along with three new types of event quests.
