2025 MapleStory Winter Showcase – Crown!
The winter showcase for the winter update, Maplestory Crown, took place yesterday! The main features were a new 6th job common skill for bossing, not one, not two, but three new bosses, and the Kinesis remaster!
The test server also opened up shortly afterwards, but I think this time, I’m going to skip the KMST post since the first official server patch is in a few days so there isn’t much time in-between. This post will just be an overview of what was revealed at the showcase.

The MapleStory Summer 2025 showcase Assemble took place yesterday, detailing what content will be added in the coming months. The first patch will include a new Anima warrior job, Len, the second patch will release new 6th job skills for all classes, and the third patch will add a new boss. And of course it all comes with a bunch of QoL improvements and features, and various events such as enhanced Hyper Burning and Challengers World.
Following the showcase, the test server was updated with the new job. Since it’s an Anima class, all of its skills are written in Hanja which makes translations more difficult and time-consuming, so we’ll see when I can finish the post by.

The 2024 MapleStory winter showcase, NEXT, took place yesterday at KINTEX in Ilsan, Korea, where they announced the next three months of content. And of course, right after it ended, KMST was opened with some of that.
I’m going to cover just the showcase in this post, with the main bullet points and some of the details that Changseop mentioned. Currently working on the KMST patch notes, will probably take a longer than normal amount of time considering the number of skills added all at once. The next KMST patch will be in less than a week, and then it all gets released in the official servers the week after so it’s going to be post after post after post!
Also, although I wasn’t lucky enough to be able to go to the Maple Con/NEXT showcase, Steve was and he sent me a million pictures he took there. Would people be interested in a post about the IRL events/minigames/prizes/etc. they had there? It would probably not be for a couple of weeks at least though considering all the other stuff coming out soon.

Yesterday, they held an event where you could go to a special map in-game called Maple Square where Director Changseop played various minigames with players (also gave a special 3 hour weather effect that gives +100% exp that stacks with all other buffs) and shared the teaser for the 2024 Summer Showcase. The showcase is called Milestone and will take place on June 8 at 4 PM! Players can watch together in-game in Maple Square as well.
Unfortunately, no actual details and I don’t think Milestone is the update name, but we’ll find out more in less than 2 weeks. The test server should go up soon after the showcase, which makes the timing a bit interesting since the first patch of the Summer update should hit the live server on June 27. That’s almost a 3 week testing period, when it’s usually just a week or two with nothing big added in the first patch.
KMS ver. 1.2.384 – Angelic Buster’s Comeback!
The Angelic Buster remaster has been released together with her new song ‘Shining Heart’! Together with this comeback is a support event for Angelic Buster characters as well as the return of (a vastly sped up) Yeti x Pink Bean World! To make the remastered skills clearer, I did full skill translations instead of just changes.
In addition, yesterday, Wonki did his first livestream on his channel. While most of it was just him doing a mukbang, he did talk about some interesting things when responding to comments which I included below.
Plus they released a teaser and announced the date for the winter update showcase!
