Solo Leveling: Karma avslører nye design for Igris og Beru før lanseringen i 2026

Netmarble has unveiled updated designs for Igris and Beru in Solo Leveling: Karma, offering fans a new look at two of Sung Jinwoo's most iconic Shadow soldiers. The reveal comes ahead of the game's planned release in the second half of 2026.

The redesigned versions of Igris and Beru were showcased following the game's presentation at Anime Expo 2026. According to the developer, both characters closely follow their appearances from the original Solo Leveling manhwa rather than the anime adaptation. Igris retains his signature knight armor and crimson hair ornament, while Beru returns in his Ant King form with the familiar black-and-purple Shadow aesthetic.

Solo Leveling: Karma expands on the franchise by exploring the 27-Year Monarch War, a period that received limited attention in the original manhwa. During this storyline, Sung Jinwoo travels back in time and spends nearly three decades battling the Monarchs alone in an effort to prevent future tragedies.

The game is expected to place greater emphasis on Jinwoo's Shadow Army, including his relationship with its members throughout the long conflict. According to the established lore, players will also witness changes to the army, including the loss of certain Shadow soldiers due to timeline alterations, while new Shadows are expected to join Jinwoo's legion during the campaign.

Netmarble has confirmed that Antares, the Monarch of Destruction, will serve as the game's primary antagonist. The title will also introduce new story elements developed under the supervision of Chugong, the original creator of Solo Leveling, expanding the universe with additional canon material.

Solo Leveling: Karma is scheduled to launch in the second half of 2026 for PC and mobile devices. While an exact release date has not yet been announced, Netmarble is expected to share more information in the coming months.
