LOS ANGELES – JANUARY 15th, 2026 – Netmarble, a leading developer and publisher of high-quality games, has launched a major update for its action game Solo Leveling: ARISE. The update introduces two new SSR Hunters alongside new story content, a competitive PvP mode, and more.
While the spirit of the Red Knight Igris serves as the loyal sword of the Monarch of Shadows, his past self has been reimagined as the living knight Sian Halat. He is a powerful Dark-type Elemental Stacker that unleashes overwhelming destructive power at the center of the new combat meta. When Sian Halat uses his ultimate skill “Knight’s Pride,” he channels his inner strength into his broadsword and performs a powerful forward-facing strike that leads his army to victory.
Joining him is Son Kihoon, a Dark-type Breaker who will maximize the efficiency of Dark Element parties alongside Sian. Kihoon is known for using a sword and shield and has abilities such as “Fierce Charge” where he scrapes the ground with his sword and performs a powerful upward slash. His ultimate skill, “Thrilling Fighting Spirit,” shares his vigor with nearby allies.
This update also introduces a new PvP event called “International Clash,” where players form attack and defense teams using up to five Hunters and nine Tactic Cards. Participants will challenge other players’ teams in battles and earn points to receive special titles and other rewards based on their performance.
New story content has also been added, including Hidden Chapters 1 and 2, as well as the Expert difficulty versions of Chapters 19 and 20. Lastly, various snowflake-themed events are underway that offer players a chance to earn generous rewards.
Solo Leveling:ARISE is an action game adaptation of the hit webtoon, Solo Leveling. Taking on the role of Jinwoo, players can experience his journey through the beloved webtoon tale firsthand, leveling up, taking on dynamic battles, and creating their own combat styles by selecting various combinations of skills and weapons.
