Nexon Bringing MapleStory To Virtual Reality At G-Star 2015

Korean video game conference G-Star 2015 is looking to be an increasingly interesting event for aficionados of virtual reality (VR). Last week at a special press conference, Sony Computer Entertainment Korea (SCEK)  revealed, amongst other announcements, that they would be bringing their PlayStation VR head-mounted display (HMD) to the event and to the region for the very first time along with a selection of game titles and tech demos

Now though another surprise announcement has come from Nexion, publishers of the free-to-play, 2D side-scrolling MORPG MapleStory. As reported by MMO Culture, in a special booth outside the event called “RePlay, MapleStory” Nexion will be showcasing MapleStory VR a version of the game on the Oculus Rift. A teaser video has been posted by Nexion for the experience which you can see here.

No announcements have been made as to whether MapleStory VR is a tech demo, or a potential future release for the Oculus CV1 Consumer Version.
