The mobile game Solo Leveling: Arise, inspired by the popular webtoon, has reached an impressive milestone of 60 million users within just 10 months of its release. This success not only showcases the game's appeal to fans of the original anime and manhwa but also highlights its ability to attract new audiences to the franchise.

To celebrate this significant achievement, Netmarble is offering players a chance to log in and receive free Essence Stones. By logging in daily until March 28th, players can claim 1,000 Essence Stones each day, accumulating up to 10,000 Essence Stones. But don't worry if you miss this initial window; you'll have additional opportunities to earn this reward until May 8th, coinciding with the game's release anniversary.

Growing in Power

While Solo Leveling: Arise might not boast the largest milestones in gaming history, its rapid surge in popularity is noteworthy. This is especially significant in the current mobile gaming landscape, where even games tied to traditionally popular franchises are struggling. For instance, Star Wars: Hunters, developed by Zynga and backed by the iconic Star Wars franchise, is facing closure less than a year after its launch. This contrast raises interesting questions about the relative popularity of manhwa and anime versus conventional films and the potential for niche products to gain rapid traction.
