Solo Leveling Arise – Developer Note -21/Feb

Thank you for leading the way in conquering Gates for 300 days! 🎉

Hunters, do you remember the first day to enter the Gates?

Thank you for always being with us at the Hunters Association!

It has already been 300 days since Hunters began leveling up, clearing Gates one by one.

Why not place your hand on the Mana Meter now?

You might receive a surprising result, perhaps even the birth of a National-Level Hunter! 😁

Just as you have grown beyond expectations, the Solo Leveling:ARISE project team continues to level up endlessly to bring you even more dynamic action.

We would like to take this moment to express our gratitude to all Hunters who have shared their valuable feedback, enabling us to keep improving.

As we approach the first anniversary of Solo Leveling:ARISE and SLC 2025, please look forward to what’s to come. We will continue striving to provide even better service!

ReAwakening

Through past official livestreams and various channels, we have heard the concerns from Hunters regarding the lack of challenge content after reaching a certain level of growth.

In March and April, we are focusing on improving the challenge content and introducing new growth elements that many of you have requested. We would like to take this opportunity to share the upcoming plans with you, one by one.

Updates Scheduled for March

• The maximum level for Sung Jinwoo will be expanded from Lv. 100 to Lv. 105.
  • New Sung Jinwoo Job Change will be added.
• Sung Jinwoo level achievement rewards will be added.
• 44 – 45 tier Gates will be added.
• Challenges will be expanded to add chapters until 38.
• Battle tier will be expanded to tier 60.
• Shadow skill level up feature will be added.
• Simulation Gate will be converted into a regular season.
  • The Effect Amplification will reset and used Memory Chips will be returned.
  • After the regular season, the required number of Memory Chips forEffect Amplification will be adjusted.
  • Simulation Gate Codex will be added that consists of Episode / Collection / Code.
  • The time attack in the Special Battle section will be removed.
  • When failing the battle, you will be able to choose whether to retry once or finalize the battle.
  • If you have reached the maximum retry counts, finalization will proceed.
• When pausing in the battle area, you can select the retry button.
  • Difficulty will be expanded.
• – Artifact instance enhancement system will be added.
  • Instant enhancement now allows you to skip enhancement animations and upgrade directly to your target level at once.
  • If required materials are insufficient, the enhancement will stop.
• Workshop of Brilliant Light – Deimos will now feature Proof of the Strong, allowing you to showcase your strength.
• A new growth system will be introduced for Legendary Skill Runes and Blessing Stones.

We would like to provide more details on the new growth system for Legendary Skill Runes and Blessing Stones, which many Hunters might be curious about.

The official name for this new growth system has not been finalized yet, but internally, we are referring to it as Refinement and Amplification (these names may also be officially adopted).

First, Refinement is a system that allows Hunters who own a Legendary Skill Rune or Blessing Stone to consume materials and obtain a higher-grade Skill Rune or Blessing Stone.

It is designed to guarantee the acquisition of a higher-grade item rather than relying on a random system, which we believe will be well received by many Hunters.

Skill Runes and Blessing Stones obtained through Refinement can then undergo further growth through the Amplification system.

Amplification is a system that allows Hunters to strengthen their higher-grade Skill Runes and Blessing Stones by using duplicate ones, enabling them to achieve even more powerful effects.

The Refinement system is scheduled to be added in the March update, while the Amplification system will be introduced in the April update.

Additionally, to coincide with the introduction of these features, we plan to hold an event that will increase the overall supply of Rune Fragments and Powder of Blessing, so please look forward to it!

Updates Scheduled for April

• The maximum floor of the Battlefield of Trials will be expanded, offering new challenges.
• The Armory will be expanded.
• A Hard difficulty will be added to the Reverse Story.
• A new growth system and Refinement system for Artifacts will be introduced.
• Multiplier play will be added to Simulation Gate.
• The Guild Boss Rage Battle (working title) will begin, allowing you to prove your strength.

We have carefully reviewed your valuable feedback regarding Guild contribution through various community channels.

First and foremost, we sincerely apologize for the lack of clear guidance on the Guild Rank System.

Based on your feedback, we are currently improving the Guild content guide, and we are also working on enhancements to the Guild contribution system.

As part of this effort, we plan to introduce the Guild Boss Rage Battle (working title) in the April update.

Rewards will be distributed based on the Rage Count, so please look forward to it!

Fusion System Improvement

The Fusion system for Skill Runes and Blessing Stones was introduced to provide an additional way to utilize duplicate Legendary Skill Runes and Blessing Stones.

However, we recognize that the current system requires an excessive amount of Essence Stones to obtain the desired Skill Runes and Blessing Stones. We deeply empathize with the concerns raised by our Hunters regarding this issue.

To address this, our team is planning to improve the Fusion system in the March update.

With the improved system, Hunters will be able to directly set their desired outcome, and by meeting specific conditions, they will be able to obtain the exact result they want.

For those preparing for Fusion, we recommend taking a brief pause and looking forward to a more efficient Fusion experience after the March update!

Hidden Stage – Yogumunt

At that moment, an unexpected sight unfolded before their eyes.

The missing raid members were gathered not far away.

Letting out a sigh of relief at the thought of having one less problem to deal with, Sung Jinwoo approached them to check their condition.

But something was off.

The raid members stood motionless, heads bowed, as if their minds were completely absent.

Then, all at once,

They clutched their heads, letting out agonized groans of pain.

Just like the Mage Magic Beasts he had encountered in the past,

a horrifying transformation began.

In mere moments, an unbelievable sight lay before them.

Every single raid member had morphed into creatures tainted with the “Aura of the Beasts”.

Their forms were no longer human,

they had become monsters.

And then, all of a sudden, the transformed Beasts lost all sense of reason and charged toward Sung Jinwoo and his party.

Will they manage to conquer this labyrinth and uncover the hidden truth?

Or is all of this part of someone’s grand design?

– Excerpt from Yogmund –

Need a cup of hot black tea?

Finally, she will join the Gate Raid through the April update.

Most of the Hunters will already be familiar with her greetings.

With her cold and confident charm, she enjoys the thrill of riding a motorbike.

Look forward to her upcoming feats!

Ant King: Final Battle

The upcoming Ant King Raid is a team-based battle where three Hunters fight together while sharing HP.

(Why not extend a hand to Guild members who may need your support?)

During combat, Hunters can earn additional contribution rewards based on their damage dealt, survival status, and specific actions, in addition to the standard clear rewards.

Now, it’s time to prepare for the final battle against the Ant King.

Until the day we reclaim Jeju Island, we will always stand by and support our Hunters!
