The mobile game Solo Leveling: Arise, inspired by the popular webtoon, has reached a significant milestone with over 60 million users. This achievement, accomplished in just over 10 months, showcases the game's immense popularity among fans of the original anime and manhwa, as well as newcomers to the franchise.
To celebrate this milestone, Netmarble is offering players a chance to log in and receive free Essence Stones. By logging in daily until March 28th, players can earn 1,000 Essence Stones each day, accumulating up to a total of 10,000. If you miss this initial window, don't worry—there will be additional opportunities to claim the 10,000 Essence Stones reward until May 8th, coinciding with the game's release anniversary.
While Solo Leveling: Arise may not have the largest set of milestones, its rapid growth in popularity is noteworthy, especially in the current mobile gaming market where even games based on traditionally popular franchises are struggling. For instance, Star Wars: Hunters, developed by Zynga and backed by one of the most iconic film series, is set to close down less than a year after its launch. This raises questions about the comparative popularity of manhwa and anime versus conventional films, and whether niche products can achieve rapid growth.
