Solo Leveling: Arise Overdrive hits PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on November 3, 2026. Netmarble's action RPG has been on PC (Steam and Xbox PC) since November 2025, so this is the console wave the Sung Jinwoo crowd has been waiting a year for.
Quick answer
Solo Leveling: Arise Overdrive launches on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on November 3, 2026, published by Netmarble. It's an action RPG that retells the original webtoon story and supports 4-player co-op. The anime it sits next to is Solo Leveling by A-1 Pictures — Season 1 (12 episodes, January 2024) and Season 2 Arise from the Shadow (13 episodes, January 2025), both streaming on Crunchyroll. According to SenpaiRanks, Season 2 holds a 7.61 adjusted score, ahead of Season 1 at 7.38.
What's actually launching
Per Anime News Network, Overdrive is the console port of the game that landed on Steam and Xbox PC last November. It isn't the gacha title: Solo Leveling: Arise is the separate free-to-play RPG that has been on Android, iOS and Windows since May 2024. Overdrive is the paid, story-driven action game that walks through the webtoon arcs, and the four-player mode means you can clear gates with friends instead of soloing them. Fitting, given the name.
Netmarble also has a third project in the pipeline: Solo Leveling Karma, a PC and mobile release slated for 2026 (our breakdown here).
Watch before you play
The game follows the webtoon, so the anime is the fastest way to get the story in your head before November 3:
- Season 1 (2024, 12 episodes) covers Jinwoo's double dungeon and his reawakening as the Player.
- Season 2: Arise from the Shadow (2025, 13 episodes) is where the shadow army arrives, and it's the stronger season by our numbers.
- Solo Leveling -ReAwakening- (2024) is a theatrical recap of Season 1 with a Season 2 preview.
All of it streams on Crunchyroll. Dub status, regions and the full rundown are in our Solo Leveling where-to-watch guide.
Here's the Season 2 anime trailer, which is a good test of whether the console game is for you:
