Dave the Diver is crossing over to MapleStory on July 16 as part of the Stargazer Patch 2 update, bringing Dave, Bancho, and Cobra from the indie hit to the 2D MMORPG classic. Originally released in 2023, Dave the Diver has since become a fan-favorite title thanks to its unique blend of restaurant management and underwater exploration. MapleStory, the long-running MMORPG, is owned by Nexon, the same parent company that Dave the Diver’s development studio Mintrocket is now a subsidiary of.
Due to its live-service nature, Nexon’s flagship MMORPG frequently features seasonal updates, massive patches, and collaborations with other franchises to keep its massive player base engaged. Since both games are owned, at least in part, by the same company, a collab between the two doesn’t come as a surprise. Like MapleStory, Dave the Diver has had its own share of crossovers in the past, including Godzilla, Balatro, Yakuza, and many more.
