Following the enormous success of the anime and previous games, Solo Leveling is preparing its next major expansion. Netmarble has officially announced the release of Solo Leveling: Karma , scheduled for 2026, promising to reveal a new phase in Jinwoo Sung's story.
The title appeared in the company's most recent financial results announcement, which highlighted the significant growth driven by its most successful franchises. Among the projects listed for 2026, Karma was mentioned as one of the main bets.
According to the official description, the game will feature "a tale never before revealed in the original work"—set 27 years after the main events. The plot is expected to explore a period that is not extensively covered between Solo Leveling and its direct sequel, Solo Leveling: Ragnarok .
Just like Solo Leveling: Arise , released in 2024, the new game should be available for PC and mobile devices, consolidating Netmarble's strategy of keeping the franchise active across multiple platforms.
The brand's success extends beyond games as well. The anime adaptation, produced by A-1 Pictures and streamed on Crunchyroll, has captivated a global audience and is paving the way for a possible third season. Furthermore, Netflix is developing a live-action series starring Byeon Woo-seok as Jinwoo Sung and Han So-hee as Cha Hae-in.
With Solo Leveling: Karma confirmed for 2026, fans can expect a new era for the universe created by Chugong and DUBU — one that promises to answer old questions and pave the way for the future of one of the most remarkable stories of our time.
