Hello from Nexon PEAK.

Playing solo can be a great time, but games become twice as fun when you jump in with friends!

Teaming up to conquer dungeons, and sometimes facing off in intense competition while making memories,

is the kind of fun every player dreams about.

But when it’s time to actually pick a game to play together, it can be surprisingly hard to choose. 😔🧐

That’s exactly where today’s post comes in.

Based on posts shared by Pico users who joined the [Nexon PEAK Post Challenge],

we’re highlighting games that are perfect to enjoy with friends.

[Pico’s Recommended Games to Play with Friends]

Game	One-Line Highlight
Mabinogi Mobile	Take photos, play instruments, and create romantic memories with friends
MapleStory	Match couple looks, take on boss fights, and enjoy seasonal events together
Elsword	Dungeon clears, PvP matches, and a housing system packed with personality

1. Mabinogi Mobile — An MMORPG that’s perfect for taking photos, playing instruments, and making romantic memories with friends

Mabinogi Mobile is a game where you can enjoy a wide range of social content with friends and create romantic memories together. On Pico, friend-focused content comes up especially often, with “taking photos together” and “playing instruments” standing out as two of the most loved activities.

With a variety of outfits, backgrounds, and motion interactions, you can capture adorable photos with friends or spend special time together performing your favorite songs through the instrument content. Another major appeal is how naturally you can meet up and enjoy time together in spaces like the party board, Stella Dome, and My Home.

My Home in particular offers a different kind of fun, letting you decorate a house together, move in with a friend, and create a shared hideout just for the two of you. If you also use the two-person motion “Action: Fantasy Partner,” you can save even more memorable moments in photos. If you want to experience the signature romance of Mabinogi Mobile with a friend, this is an easy recommendation.

💬 “As an RPG, it has a lot of content to enjoy, but I think it’s a game that becomes even more fun when played with friends.” — 헤세님 [In the end, all that remains is people]

2. MapleStory - An RPG where couple looks, boss fights, and seasonal events are even better with friends

MapleStory is an RPG where you can grow alongside friends and build all kinds of memorable moments together. On Pico, it’s often recommended for relaxing playstyles like matching couple outfits with friends and taking photos at beautiful photo spots. In particular, players note that “Coloring Prism” lets you customize fashion items in the colors you want, making it a great tool for completing a personalized look that reflects your own style.

And the fun goes beyond photo-taking. Through a variety of boss fights and party play, you can tackle difficult quests together and enjoy the satisfaction of achieving goals as a team by challenging content like “Genesis Weapon Liberation.” Seasonal events and minigames such as “Specter Blast” are also part of MapleStory’s charm, giving friends a fun way to make light bets and create even more shared memories.

💬 “MapleStory is fun even solo, but it’s a game that really creates even more synergy when you play with friends!” — 키티님 [MapleStory, a game that’s even more fun with friends]

💬 “A must-recommend even for those who say they don’t want to game alone because it’s not fun~” — 행복한노란고양이35048님 [A great time to return with friends! MapleStory 6/18 update]

3. Elsword — An action RPG where dungeon clears, PvP battles, and housing turn into a virtual home party with friends

Elsword combines high-energy dungeon action with charming social content you can enjoy with friends. Pico users say it’s a great pick for building party synergy to clear dungeons together, or for sharing the fun through “Official Match,” where you can test your skills in 1:1 or 2:2 team battles.

One of Elsword’s most distinctive features is the “El House” system, where you can decorate a space of your own. With furniture you’ve worked hard to collect, you can create a room full of personality and invite friends over for a virtual home party. On top of that, its cute 2D-style avatars and wide range of custom motions make character customization another big part of the appeal.

💬 “Solo games are fun too, but few games are as good for making memories with friends as Elsword, the action RPG that has held its place at Nexon for so many years.” — 슈비어트님 [4 Nexon Elsword content picks that are twice as fun with friends]
