After winning Anime of the Year at the 2025 Anime Awards held by Crunchyroll, why not invest in a Solo Leveling roguelite? Netmarble, a leading developer and publisher of high-quality games, officially unveiled its new Roguelite Action RPG title, Solo Leveling: KARMA, through an exclusive teaser trailer at Anime Expo 2025. 

I mean, the series lends to the genre of game, and it stands to bring even more players into the world of Solo Leveling as well. And to be honest, it fits the trend that Netmarble has been able to capture in their titles. If you’re unfamiliar with Netmarble, the studio was founded in Korea in 2000.

What is Solo Leveling: KARMA?

Solo Leveling: KARMA expands upon the global hit Solo Leveling anime series. The Solo Leveling roguelite introduces an original storyline set in the Dimensional Gap, an unexplored narrative window within the source material. Based on the webtoon by Chu Gong, this Netmarble video game is expanding on the world that viewers and readers alike have fallen in love with. 

In the Solo Leveling roguelite, KARMA, Protagonist Sung Jinwoo has endured a 27-year-long war among Monarchs, and the “Broken Cup of Reincarnation,” an artifact, can only be restored through Jinwoo’s fragmented memories.
