Solo Leveling: Arise Hits 60 Million Users, Launches New Events

Solo Leveling: Arise, the mobile game based on the acclaimed webtoon, has hit a significant milestone, boasting over 60 million users in just over 10 months. This impressive achievement underscores the game's widespread appeal, attracting not only fans of the original anime and manhwa but also newcomers to the franchise.

To celebrate this milestone, Netmarble is offering a generous reward to players. By logging in until March 28th, users can claim 1,000 Essence Stones daily, accumulating up to a total of 10,000 stones. And if you miss the initial window, don't fret—you'll have additional opportunities to earn the full 10,000 Essence Stones reward until May 8th, coinciding with the game's release anniversary.

The rapid growth of Solo Leveling: Arise is particularly noteworthy, especially in the current mobile gaming landscape where even games based on traditionally popular franchises have struggled. Consider Star Wars: Hunters, developed by Zynga and backed by one of the most iconic film series, which is set to close down less than a year after its launch. This raises intriguing questions about the power of niche markets like manhwa and anime, which seem to be driving significant engagement and growth in the gaming community.

While the long-term impact remains to be seen, the success of Solo Leveling: Arise is a testament to the potential of these genres. In the meantime, if you're eager to explore more gaming options, why not check out our latest list of the top five new mobile games to try this week?
