Mabinogi kicks off its 18th anniversary event through April 9

Mabinogi is celebrating its 18th anniversary with a new in-game event lineup that runs through April 9. According to the official post, players can jump into the “A Gift of Mysterious Magic” quest, clear anniversary achievements, play library minigames, take part in the Stomp Spring event, and pick up rewards from the GM Anniversary Hotday event.

The long-running Nexon MMO first launched in March 2008 and has kept a loyal playerbase ever since, helped by its mix of life skills, social systems, and anime-styled sandbox design. This anniversary update is mostly about limited-time activities and freebies, rather than a major expansion or overhaul.

Nexon also shared a few lifetime stats for the game as part of the celebration. The company says players have logged more than 13 million rebirths and sold 15 million items through the auction house. There are also now 600 unique pet types in the game.

One other stat stood out: Nexon says a single player has accumulated 1,000,000 total levels since 2008. As for race popularity, Humans are still the most-played option, followed by Elves and then Giants.

If you’re still checking in on Mabinogi, the anniversary event is live now and runs until April 9.
