Tree of Savior Neo – New Server Launch Follows Mobile/PC Release

Tree of Savior Neo continues its rollout with a brand-new server opened to meet growing demand.

The Starlight – Multiverse Lore, Battle Royale Mode, and Developer Showcase

At a recent showcase, The Starlight revealed its ambitious scope as a “4th generation MMORPG” blending sci-fi, fantasy, and cross-platform play.

Combat is enhanced with a dual-class system, real-time PvP, massive siege battles, and a solo or squad-based Battle Royale mode. Five key characters—each representing a different race and combat style—were revealed alongside immersive soundtrack previews and a dynamic starting zone called Mana Village. The game is set to release in Q3 2025 with pre-registrations live and rewards including rare vehicles, spirits, and even physical prizes.

MapleStory – 35-Hour Emergency Maintenance Ends with Compensation

MapleStory players faced over 35 hours of downtime following an emergency maintenance response to serious in-game exploits and item duplication.

While the fixes are now in place, the delay prompted heated community discussions about long-term security and server reliability.

Past Fate – Alpha Patch 0.5.1.3 Revamps Gathering and UI
