Netmarble has added a new SSR hunter, 'Antoine Martinez', to Netmarble Neo's action game, 'Solo Leveling: ARISE'.

Antoine Martinez is a Light-attribute stacker who wields axes as his primary weapon. His key skills include 'Sorrow-Crushing Light', which smashes enemies with both axes; 'Judgment of Fate', where he throws his axes and performs a powerful upward slash upon catching them; and 'Time Where Angels Dwell', which channels power into his axes to strike the ground and attack enemies with a spreading shockwave.

To mark the 2nd anniversary, various improvements have been implemented to support rapid growth. First, some repetitive combat stages in the main story from chapters 3 to 20 have been removed, and battle missions and chapter rewards have been adjusted accordingly. A 'Monarch's Milestone System' has also been added, providing necessary growth rewards upon clearing stage-by-stage missions.

In addition, 'Special Stages' have been added to certain chapters in the Normal story mode. Other updates include a new job change for Sung Jinwoo as the 'Shadow Monarch: Executioner', an increase in Sung Jinwoo's level cap to 150, expansion of activity support funds up to stage 73, a renewal of Gates, Closed Dungeons, and the Battlefield of Chaos with unified entry keys, and the 'Successor System', which allows players to receive combat assistance from those who inherited the monarch's power, including the 'Successor of White Flame', Miro.

2nd anniversary events are also underway, consisting of the 2nd Anniversary Special Recruitment, Special Mission Challenge, 'Prelude to the Clash' event, International Exchange Tournament, and the Anniversary Contribution Reward event.
