Solo Leveling: Arise Hits 60M Users, Unveils New Events

*Solo Leveling: Arise*, the game based on the popular webtoon, has reached a remarkable milestone with over 60 million users in just 10 months. This impressive achievement underscores the game's widespread appeal, drawing in not only fans of the original anime and manhwa but also newcomers to the franchise.

To celebrate this significant milestone, Netmarble is offering a special log-in event. Players who log in by March 28th can claim 1,000 Essence Stones daily, accumulating up to a total of 10,000 stones. Don't fret if you miss the initial window; additional opportunities to earn these rewards will be available until May 8th, coinciding with the game's release anniversary.

Growing in Power
While not the largest milestone in gaming history, the rapid rise in popularity of *Solo Leveling: Arise* is noteworthy, especially in the current mobile gaming landscape. This success stands in stark contrast to other releases based on traditionally popular franchises. For instance, *Star Wars: Hunters*, developed by Zynga and backed by the iconic Star Wars series, is set to close down less than a year after its launch. This raises intriguing questions about the relative popularity of manhwa and anime versus conventional films, and whether niche products can achieve rapid growth.

Only time will tell what the long-term implications of these trends will be. In the meantime, if you're looking for other mobile gaming options, check out our latest list of the top five new mobile games to try this week.
