"Solo Leveling: Arise Hits 60M Users, Launches Milestone Events"

by Audrey Apr 14,2025

The hugely popular mobile game *Solo Leveling: Arise*, inspired by the beloved webtoon, has achieved a remarkable milestone by reaching over 60 million users. This impressive feat was accomplished in just over 10 months, showcasing the game's widespread appeal not only to fans of the original anime and manhwa but also to newcomers discovering the franchise for the first time.

To celebrate this significant achievement, Netmarble is offering players a fantastic opportunity to earn rewards. By simply logging in until March 28th, users can claim 1,000 Essence Stones daily, accumulating up to a total of 10,000 stones. But don't fret if you miss the initial window; you'll have additional chances to secure the 10,000 Essence Stones reward until May 8th, coinciding with the game's release anniversary.

Growing in power

While *Solo Leveling: Arise*'s milestones may not be the largest in the industry, its rapid rise in popularity is noteworthy, particularly in a mobile gaming market where releases based on traditionally popular franchises have struggled. Consider *Star Wars: Hunters*, developed by Zynga and supported by one of the most iconic film series, yet it's set to close down less than a year after its launch. This contrast raises interesting questions: Are manhwa and anime surpassing conventional films in terms of popularity? Can even niche products experience rapid growth?

Only time will tell what the future holds for *Solo Leveling: Arise* and similar titles. In the meantime, if you're on the hunt for new gaming experiences, why not explore our latest list of the top five new mobile games to try this week?
