Players Invited to Try on Free Items in MapleStory

We all know the worldwide economy is not doing so well right now, and governmental bodies have been trying to stimulate it through various means. Well, the world of MapleStory is receiving its own stimulus package today as users are invited to try on hundreds of items in the in-game cash shop for free.

The items you can try on are all in the cape, overall, hat and shoe categories. Basically you can try on a new outfit for free. "While all of our games are free-to-play, this is a great opportunity for players to check out what the Cash Shop in MapleStory has to offer and have fun with different looks without any impact on their wallets," said Min Kim, vice president of Nexon America.

If you sign on to MapleStory, you can also check out the recently added Crimsonwood Keep Party Quest, the expanded buddy list and the Masteria Mob Invasion. For more information on these updates or the free items day, keep reading after the jump.
