## Good questions, quick answers.

### What is MapleStory Classic World?
MapleStory Classic World is Nexon’s classic-style MapleStory experience, with its own gameplay adjustments and features. This independent fan site covers Classic World rather than the modern game or a private server.

### When did MapleStory Classic World launch?
Nexon’s Grand Launch release notes list October 21, 2026 at 18:00 UTC. That is 11:00 AM PDT, 2:00 PM EDT, and October 22 at 2:00 AM in Beijing.

### What are the first jobs?
Warrior, Magician, Bowman, and Thief. Each first-job advancement is available at level 10; the second advancement is at level 30.

### What is the level cap?
The Grand Launch release notes set the maximum character level at 100.

### Can I play on Mac or with a controller?
The Grand Launch supports Windows and macOS, plus Xbox and PlayStation controllers. Enable Controller Support in Game Options; it is off by default.

### Why can’t a new account trade?
All trading features become available 24 hours after a character on the account reaches level 15. Reaching level 15 starts that waiting period.

### Why use MapleStory Classic Wiki?
MapleStory Classic Wiki brings class paths, town and NPC references, real game images, and free planning tools into one searchable guide. Find clear answers about job advancement, housing, party quests, and your next level. This independent fan guide distinguishes confirmed launch rules from editorial advice.
