'MapleStory in Lotte World Busan,' which opened on August 29, will be held throughout the entire Lotte World Busan park for a total of 86 days until November 22. The event spaces depict a scenario in which a group of mushrooms, having traveled through a portal created by Pink Bean, takes over the Magic Forest and stirs up chaos as a garden party unfolds. The narrative of players stepping up as 'MapleStory' heroes to restore order is reflected throughout various attractions.

Interactive content connecting the game and the venue has also been prepared. At the Garden Stage, which is decorated based on the in-game 'Mushroom Castle,' visitors can enjoy "Create Your Own Character," an activity that surpassed 130,000 participants during the spring season collaboration. After scanning a QR code and selecting a hairstyle and outfit, their custom character appears on a digital panel on stage. 'MapleStory' users can also bring their own in-game characters directly into the event. Additionally, a mobile stamp rally is held across the park, inviting visitors to collect gifts from Princess Violetta's garden party.

New live events include the fresh parade, 'MapleStory: Dance Together!', with additional monster dancers, and 'MapleStory Pink Bean Photo Time' held with Pink Bean in front of the Talking Tree. A giant Orange Mushroom air balloon, 6 meters high, will be floating around with bubbles, while visitors can also enjoy live performances such as 'MapleStory Busking' and the 'Pink Bean Greeting Band.'

A Nexon representative stated, "Thanks to the positive response to the spring season collaboration held at Lotte World Jamsil in Seoul from March to June, we planned this new partnership," adding, "Please look forward to special merchandise and food & beverage items available exclusively in Busan."
