Dallas, Texas.-Defenders of Maple World now have a new weapon in their arsenal –their AT&T wireless phone. AT&T* announced today that MapleStory© is now available for download from the AT&T MEdia Mall, AT&T’s multimedia content store. AT&T is the first U.S. wireless carrier to launch the mobile version of MapleStory, which is the world’s first 2D side-scrolling massively multiplayer online role-playing game and has over 92 million worldwide registered users.
