This day ends with a Y, which means we’re writing about another Webtoon mobile release! Yes, the popular comic book reading site has become fertile ground for new series, the most famous of which is probably Solo Leveling and its spin-off Arise. But today’s topic takes a slightly different approach to the whole aspect of power fantasy.

In Hardcore Leveling Warrior, you unsurprisingly step into the shoes of a warrior who used to be the most powerful in the world. However, after he is knocked off his pedestal and finds himself at the bottom of the power rankings, it’s your job to pave the way for him back to the top!

Of course, even if you’re familiar with the original story, the new installment takes a different approach, hinting at a new narrative set entirely within the world of the original. I know it’s confusing, but at least it promises a fair amount of role-playing action, complete with PvP mode and idle rewards for busy players!

Level up!

Pre-registration for Hardcore Leveling Warrior is now open, with an expected release date (according to the iOS App Store) sometime in late January. While the announced gameplay may not stand out as some new, fantastic twist on the format, I can’t say that HLW isn’t at least obviously well made, with plenty of action and nice art; so I’d say it’s more than worth a look when Hardcore Leveling Warrior comes out.

In the meantime, if you want to know what other top releases are available and that you can play right now, even before their official launch date, why not take a look at our regular Ahead of the Game feature? In this series, we’ll be looking at early access releases and other games you can play before their official release!
