Will MapleStory on Facebook Succeed Where Dragon Hunter Failed?

Nexon, the Korean gaming giant, has just announced that it’s entering the mobile and social gaming markets by bringing two of its most popular titles onto Facebook and iOS. KartRider Rush will be available for the iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad as well as the Android devices, while Maplestory will be launching on Facebook. Despite what some other blog sites may have reported, KartRider will not be launching on Facebook. Rather KartRider will be a freemium title with single player gameplay and Facebook connect functionality to enable players to compare their scores against their friends.

Several days I ago wrote a post about how more hardcore games will slowly begin to make their way onto Facebook, so it wasn’t a surprise when I heard Nexon make their announcement regarding MapleStory Adventures.
