Only if you log in through Steam.
All the other Nexon games that are on Steam are still available the normal way.

[quote=Gex46]Link please?
If it was going to happen, it should've happened by now, just like all the other Steam games[/quote]
There's no link yet, it's just logical deduction.
Like Flametokay said, Dungeon Fighter Online and Combat Arms are already on Steam, and there are now Steam related files in the newest Maplestory patch.
We all know the glacial speed Nexon usually does things, it's just taking them some time to get Maplestory into Steam distribution.

Ipso facto.

It's a cheap way for Nexon to distribute the game and get more customers to buy NX.

Nexon distributes other games through Steam now, and apparently has plans to distribute Maplestory there too.

Obviously it's an attempt to increase the number of players in the game (and the number of people buying NX).
As to how it will affect current players, be prepared for a huge influx of new people fighting for training spots.
