At launch, 169 million NXPC tokens were circulated, representing 16.9% of the total supply, with a phased release strategy for decentralized distribution.

The game will be available on PC and is set to launch in regions where blockchain gaming is supported, aiming to attract a global audience.

CEO Sunyoung Hwang emphasized that this launch transforms gaming by granting players real ownership of in-game assets, addressing issues like item inflation and developer-controlled ecosystems.

The NXPC token enhances MapleStory's in-game economy by enabling true asset ownership and player-driven markets through a Fusion-Fission model, which balances NFT supply and value.

MapleStory N combines nostalgic 2D side-scrolling gameplay with innovative Web3 features, providing players with new ways to engage with the game's ecosystem.

Built on a custom Layer 1 chain using Avalanche technology, MapleStory N has already driven record engagement on the Avalanche Network, highlighted by a recent OpenSea Primary Drop Campaign that resulted in over 1 million mints.

Industry experts view this launch as pivotal for the crypto gaming sector, recognizing the cultural significance of the MapleStory franchise, particularly in Asia.

NEXPACE aims to create a community-driven ecosystem that emphasizes transparency, security, and creativity, redefining interactive entertainment in the gaming landscape.

With over 250 million registered users globally and $5 billion in lifetime revenue, MapleStory's established IP provides a rich foundation for the new game.

The NXPC token, which began trading at a market cap of $441 million, is designed to enhance usability with high-speed and low-cost capabilities provided by the Avalanche network.

On May 15, 2025, NEXPACE launched MapleStory N and the NXPC token, marking a significant blockchain-powered expansion of the iconic MapleStory MMORPG.

In its first 24 hours, NXPC reached an all-time high of $3.84, with trading volume exceeding $2.13 billion, positioning it among the top gainers in the market.
