The MapleStory V update is officially over! This patch includes a small number of changes but is mainly targeted towards events, about Chuseok/Hangawi, a harvest festival that takes place in Korea. Even Lucid is taking part in the festivities!

They didn’t actually make an update info center video for this patch (probably because it was just events) haha.

Here’s the world selection screen for this patch~
