Netmarble is pushing deeper into the Solo Leveling universe with a new title: Solo Leveling: KARMA. Described as a roguelite action RPG, the game explores a story that was never told in the original webtoon or anime.
Set in the mysterious Dimensional Gap, the game drops players into a 27-year war—one that protagonist Sung Jinwoo fought alone, and one fans have only heard mentioned in passing. This isn’t just filler content. Netmarble is betting on this unexplored arc to expand the Solo Leveling lore in ways that feel both fresh and connected to its roots.
While a release date hasn’t been confirmed, Netmarble did confirm that the game will launch on PC, iOS, and Android.
A Story Between Worlds
Solo Leveling: KARMA introduces an original plot centered around an artifact known as the Broken Cup of Reincarnation. To restore it, players must piece together Jinwoo’s lost memories—memories formed during a war between the Monarchs that spanned nearly three decades.
It’s a narrative gap that had always been there. Now it’s being turned into a battlefield.
Combat That Mirrors the Anime’s Brutality
The teaser shows Jinwoo armed with more than just his signature daggers. Players can expect to wield scythes, bows, and other weapons in a fast-paced isometric hack-and-slash style. Enemies include recognizable threats like Cerberus, the Demonic King Baran, and the Godlike Statue of Cartenon Temple.
The game’s roguelite design promises high replay value. Expect evolving builds, stat buffs through “Blessings,” and combat that rewards memory and reaction speed. Shadow summons like Igris and Iron return, with their iconic combo moves intact.
Not Just for Gamers
What sets KARMA apart isn’t just the gameplay—it’s the choice to tell a serious story. Instead of surface-level fan service, it dives into forgotten history. The use of cinematic storytelling aims to bring anime-level immersion to a different format.
KARMA might not be the kind of mobile spinoff fans expect. It feels more like an attempt to fill in the blanks of the Solo Leveling mythos—and depending on execution, it could become the missing piece that makes the franchise whole.
