  • The popular Solo Leveling manhwa is getting another mobile adaptation
  • Solo Leveling: Karma brings rogue-lite RPG gameplay to the acclaimed franchise
  • The game explores a pivotal time jump from the original storyline

While global pop culture phenomena have become commonplace, some breakout hits still manage to surprise us with their meteoric rise. Solo Leveling perfectly illustrates this phenomenon - after its successful ARPG mobile spin-off Arise, the franchise now prepares to expand with Solo Leveling: Karma, an upcoming rogue-lite action RPG.

For newcomers, Solo Leveling is a Korean manga (manhwa) series set in a world besieged by demons and defended by hunters. Protagonist Sung Jin-woo starts as the weakest hunter, but after surviving a deadly encounter, gains a mysterious ability to continuously level up - transforming him into an unrivaled powerhouse.

Solo Leveling: Karma focuses on the story's pivotal 27-year gap period. Casual fans beware - major spoilers ahead!

The Significance of Time Jump

Time jumps often prove divisive in anime narratives. Karma allows players to experience Jin-woo's crucial 27-year dimensional journey, where what was two years in real time translated to decades of relentless demon-slaying battles - ripe material for compelling game adaptation.

Scheduled for mobile and PC platforms, Solo Leveling: Karma's trailer showcases fast-paced Diablo-inspired combat mechanics and Jin-woo's signature spectacular moves - though further details remain scarce.
