Netmarble just streamed the story and combat trailers for Solo Leveling: Karma, its PC and mobile game launching in 2026 — and the story trailer covers a webtoon arc the anime hasn't reached yet. A-1 Pictures, the studio behind the TV series, animated the game's opening, so the reveal doubles as a reminder that the Solo Leveling machine isn't slowing down. If the trailers sent you looking for the show itself, here's the practical rundown.
Quick answer
Solo Leveling is streaming on Crunchyroll, subbed and dubbed, across both seasons. Season 1 (12 episodes, A-1 Pictures) debuted in January 2024; Season 2 premiered January 2025; the compilation film Solo Leveling -ReAwakening- landed late 2024, with Solo Leveling: Beyond the System still to come. According to SenpaiRanks, Ore dake Level Up na Ken holds an adjusted 7.38 on the dual-axis board — strong Consensus, and worth rating yourself to see where your taste lands. Solo Leveling: Karma, the Netmarble action-RPG, launches on PC and mobile in 2026.
Where it comes from
The anime adapts Chugong's webtoon (itself from a Korean web novel) about Seong Jin-Woo, the world's weakest hunter, who gains a leveling "System" only he can see after nearly dying in a double dungeon. A-1 Pictures leaned into the power-fantasy pacing, and Crunchyroll ran the English dub the same month as the Japanese broadcast — part of why the show broke out beyond the usual isekai crowd. The new game's story trailer, Netmarble notes, deliberately explores a gap in the webtoon the anime hasn't animated yet.
The read
Is it good? On raw hype, yes — Solo Leveling is the cleanest "weak protagonist gets absurdly strong" arc in modern anime, and the animation carries fights that could read as repetitive on the page. Per SenpaiRanks's ranking, it sits comfortably in the upper tier of recent action anime, ahead of most single-cour isekai. If you want the wider field, our best 2026 action anime and best anime to watch in 2026 boards put it in context.
Already caught up? The follow-ups worth queuing: the theatrical Solo Leveling: Beyond the System, plus adjacent power-fantasy picks like Skeleton Knight in Another World S2 and Mashle Season 3. You can also open the full ranking on the Solo Leveling page and rate it against the crowd.
