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

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 appeal, attracting not only fans of the original anime and manhwa but also 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 full 10,000 Essence Stones reward until May 8th, coinciding with the game's release anniversary.

The rapid growth of Solo Leveling: Arise is particularly noteworthy in the current mobile gaming landscape, where even games based on traditionally popular franchises have struggled. For instance, Star Wars: Hunters, developed by Zynga and backed by the iconic Star Wars franchise, is set to close down less than a year after its launch. This contrast raises questions about the relative popularity of manhwa and anime versus conventional films, and whether niche products can achieve rapid growth in today's market.

As we observe the long-term trajectory of Solo Leveling: Arise, it will be interesting to see how it continues to evolve. In the meantime, if you're looking for other games to explore, check out our latest list of the top five new mobile games to try this week.
