Hello!

I'm Nexon Picker 피스타임.

Exciting news recently broke:

Maple Island, inspired by MapleStory,

is coming to Lotte World.

Back in 2022, Nexon's KartRider teamed up with Lotte World

for the KartRider Racing World attraction, which drew plenty of attention.

Maple Island has now been unveiled

as the next Nexon collaboration attraction.

As the name Maple Island suggests,

this is a real-world themed zone based on MapleStory.

Scheduled to open on April 3, 2025,

it features 3 attractions, including a roller coaster,

so visitors can look forward to a varied lineup.

Let's take a closer look at the attractions.

Join the Rock Spirits!

Stone Express

First up is Stone Express.

It's a roller coaster that visitors of all ages can enjoy.

The scenery looks like a faithful recreation of Henesys from MapleStory,

with Rock Spirits waiting on the hills.

The station's interior faithfully recreates

Arcana, home of the Rock Spirits.

Board the roller coaster with the Rock Spirits

and set off on an exciting adventure.

A Gentle Ride for Children, Too!

Arcana Ride

There's also an attraction suitable for children.

It's called Arcana Ride.

Spin around the Spirit Tree

and play alongside the Rock Spirits.

Feel the Thrill of Gravity!

Eos Tower

Maple Island's final attraction

is the Ludibrium-themed Eos Tower.

It may not have 100 floors like its in-game counterpart,

but the ride up and down the tower should still deliver plenty of thrills.

Fortunately, no scrolls are required!

That wraps up today's look at the attractions of Maple Island,

which opens at Lotte World on April 3.

With MapleStory's signature cute charm throughout,

it looks set to become a popular themed zone for visitors of all ages.
