Greetings Hunters,
This is the Solo Leveling:ARISE team.
It has already been two weeks since we started this journey with our hunters.
Today, we are here to express our gratitude and introduce some new content we are currently preparing.
Now let's take a look at the prepared content one by one!
1. New Content - Battlefield of Chaos
First, we would like to introduce the "Battlefield of Chaos," a new content that will bring new excitement to our hunters.
The Battlefield of Chaos is a defense-type dungeon in which hunters must defeat randomly appearing bosses consecutively. This will be a difficult content where hunters who are farming Tier 10 Encore Missions or Instance Dungeon can challenge.
We expect that Battlefield of Chaos will offer a differentiated battle experience, unlike any existing content, for hunters who have grown to a certain level. Dominate the Battlefield of Chaos and seize the strength of the powerful Gems!
2. New Content - Gem
We have put a lot of thought into presenting the Battlefield of Chaos and offering appealing rewards to hunters. We felt that simple rewards such as Gold and EXP would not be enough to provide sufficient motivation to challenge the new content.
After careful consideration, we are revealing "Gem" as a new reward and content for our hunters.
Obtain various Gems while playing the Battlefield of Chaos and freely set the obtained Gems to the newly added Gem system slot. Equip Gems and unlock the next levels of Gems to power up Sung Jinwoo, the other Hunters, and even the Shadows to fight against the massive chaos.
3. New Character - Alicia Blanche
Solo Leveling original character Alicia Blanche, whom many hunters may have already met at the Hunters Association lobby, is finally joining the hunters.
While Sung Jinwoo is known as the weakest hunter of all mankind, a story will unfold in France about Alicia Blanche, who strives to uncover the truth and face an unknown enemy. Experience the story of a beautiful water elemental hunter who blossoms ice flowers with powerful freezing magic.
These are the crucial aspects we plan to reveal by the end of May. We will also introduce various content that we are preparing with time to ensure its completeness and quality for future releases.
4. Guild
Even when playing the same game, the experience and immersion can be significantly different depending on the bond. We are well aware of this difference, so our target for the first grand update was "development of a Guild system." As the Guild is considered important in the original story, we thought that the Guild system our hunters encounter in the game must also be special.
To achieve this, hunters who are joining a Guild will be able to bond with each other and grow together, receiving various benefits based on their progress. Additionally, our goal is to enable the creation of unique Guilds through various themes and interactions. We will try our best to provide a Guild system our hunters can be satisfied with.
5. Workshop of Brilliant Light
We are preparing a new content called "Workshop of Brilliant Light (working title)" to offer hunters another engaging gameplay experience. Workshop of Brilliant Light is a challenge-type content where various bosses appear. You will encounter powerful bosses but will be able to weaken them through various methods and use these methods to gain advantages in the battle.
We hope that the test video we've prepared will excite hunters about the new challenge content, "Workshop of Brilliant Light."
6. Improvement in Balance and Details
Currently, as we move through early access and the official launch, we are disappointed to see that some hunters are not as favored as our development team intended. The development team has been continuously considering this issue and determined that providing the joy of diverse gameplay is crucial. Therefore, a performance adjustment will take place as below based on current usage and the performance balance result.
Balance adjustments are also scheduled for the following Hunters and Weapons:
- SSR Min Byung-Gu, SSR Seo Jiwoo, SSR Emma Laurent, SSR Cha Hae-In, SSR Choi Jong-In
- SR Park Beom-Shik, SR Song Chiyul, SR Jo Kyuhwan
- SSR Vulcan's Rage, R Lycan Slayer
More details will be provided in a future Update Details notice.
As for SSR weapons, which require a lot of time and effort to power up, they are not easy to use for hunters who prefer a relatively lighter gaming experience. To address this, we are preparing features such as evolving SR Sung Jinwoo weapons into higher-grade weapons and crafting SR hunter-exclusive weapons. We will try to be as careful and discreet as we can, as this will change the composition of the game that has already been launched. We hope that our sincere wish for many hunters to enjoy the game even more can be effectively conveyed.
7. Conclusion
The Battlefield of Chaos, Gem, and new hunter Alicia Blanche are in the final stage of preparation and will be revealed to our hunters soon. We will also try hard to release the Guild system and Workshop of Brilliant Light as soon as possible.
As it’s in the early stages of service, we are receiving countless feedback on improvements and bug reports from our hunters. We greatly appreciate the feedback and deeply apologize for not being able to resolve the issues promptly. Especially for issues regarding hacking or abuse of the program, we will take measures firmly based on our principles. We will strive to resolve bugs as fast as we can and provide a more enjoyable gameplay experience.
Thanks to the love sent from our hunters Solo Leveling:ARISE has reached 20 million downloads. We will never forget that all of this is thanks to the overwhelming love and support from our hunters. We have prepared a small check-in event for hunters to enjoy until the new update is released.
