Play MapleStory Universe with a Free VPN

Are you excited to dive into the world of MapleStory Universe, but keep seeing the frustrating message, “MapleStory Universe is not yet available in your location”? You’re not alone. Due to regional restrictions on blockchain games, players in many countries are blocked from accessing the game.

But don’t worry, there’s a solution! This guide will show you how to use a free, built-in VPN from the Opera browser to bypass these restrictions and start your adventure.

Here’s a step-by-step guide to get you started.

Step 1: Install the Opera Browser

First, you need to download and install the Opera Browser. Opera has a free, unlimited VPN built right into the browser, which is perfect for this purpose.

Step 2: Install the MetaMask Extension

Since MapleStory Universe uses a blockchain ecosystem, you’ll need a crypto wallet to interact with it. We’ll use MetaMask, the most popular and trusted wallet.

Once Opera is installed, open it and follow these steps to add the MetaMask extension:

  1. Go to the Opera Add-ons store.

  2. Search for “MetaMask”.

  3. Click on the MetaMask extension and then click “Add to Opera”.

  4. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your new wallet. Make sure you save your secret recovery phrase in a secure location!

Step 3: Enable the Free VPN in Opera

Now for the crucial part: activating the VPN. Opera’s VPN is easy to set up and requires no extra downloads.

  1. Open Opera and click the “O” icon in the top-left corner to open the menu.

  2. Go to Settings.

  3. In the left sidebar, click on Privacy and security.

  4. Scroll down to the VPN section and toggle on the “Enable VPN” option.

  5. You’ll see a blue VPN badge appear in the address bar. Click on it to select a region like Americas or Europe to change your virtual location to a supported country.

Step 4: Log in and Download MapleStory Universe

With your VPN enabled, you can now access the game’s website as if you were in an unrestricted region.

  1. Navigate to the official msu.io website.

  2. Connect your MetaMask wallet.

  3. You should now be able to log in and see the option to download the game.

  4. Start the download. You can often turn off the VPN once the download begins to speed it up, but you may need to turn it back on when you launch the game.

Step 5: Launch and Enjoy!

Once the download is complete, you’re ready to play!

  1. Launch the game. You may need to enable your Opera VPN again to bypass the regional check when the game starts.

  2. Log in with your connected account.

  3. Welcome to MapleStory Universe! Congratulations on successfully bypassing the regional block.

Now, go explore the universe and start your epic journey!
