DeNA to Bring MapleStory to Mobage in Japan

DeNA just announced that it will be bringing MapleStory to its Mobage platform in Japan, in cooperation with publisher Nexon. MapleStory is a MMORPG that has enjoyed great popularity for years, particularly in Korea where the title originated.

This new version will be called MapleStory: Bokurano Boken, and it is available today to play on feature phones in Japan. The company says that plans for a smartphone edition are in the works as well. Its likely that some of you have never heard of MapleStory, but the title has over 100 million users worldwide in over 60 countries. 18 million registered players are from South Korea, and another four million are in Japan. That latter fan-base should serve DeNA well in kick-starting MapleStorey: Bokurano Boken in Japan.

While the game is free to play, a DeNA representative tells Penn Olson this evening that there will be in-game virtual items that players can buy using Moba-coins (its virtual currency).
