Solo Leveling: Arise Hits 60 Million Users, Launches Milestone Events

*Solo Leveling: Arise*, the popular game based on the hit webtoon, has reached a significant milestone with over 60 million users joining in just over 10 months. This success showcases the game's appeal, attracting not only fans of the original anime and manhwa but also newcomers to the franchise. Netmarble is celebrating this achievement by offering players a chance to log in and receive free Essence Stones.

To participate in the celebration, log in to *Solo Leveling: Arise* by March 28th to claim 1,000 Essence Stones daily, with a total of up to 10,000 stones available. If you miss the initial event, don't worry—there will be additional opportunities to earn the full 10,000 Essence Stones until May 8th, coinciding with the game's release anniversary.

Growing in Power
While *Solo Leveling: Arise* may not boast the largest milestone in the mobile gaming world, its rapid surge in popularity is noteworthy. This growth is particularly significant in the current mobile gaming market, where even games based on traditionally popular franchises like *Star Wars: Hunters*—developed by Zynga and backed by a major film series—have struggled to maintain player interest, leading to closure announcements within less than a year. The success of *Solo Leveling: Arise* raises questions about whether anime and manhwa-based games have a stronger pull than those based on conventional films, and whether niche products can quickly gain a substantial following.

As we observe the long-term trajectory of *Solo Leveling: Arise*, the gaming community remains eager to see how it evolves. In the meantime, if you're looking for more gaming options, check out our latest list of the top five new mobile games to try this week.
