Solo Leveling: Ragnarok To Make Its Webtoon Debut in July
The English Release of the Sequel Series is Yet to Be Revealed
Solo Leveling: Ragnarok’swebtoon adaptation was first announced back in October 2023 by the CEO of D&C Media in an interview. As seen in theCrunchyroll documentary onSolo Leveling, adapting a web novel into a webtoon or manhwa can take quite a while as a series is only published once a good chunk of chapters are ready in advance. As such, it makes sense that it took almost a year tillSolo Leveling’s sequel was ready to make its debut as a webtoon.
Unsurprisingly, as the series is also licensed by D&C Media,Solo Leveling: Ragnarok’swebtoon will be released on KakoPage, and will most likely gradually make its way to other Kakao-owned manga platforms like Piccoma. As of present, no information has been provided on when fans can expect the series to be licensed in English. Unfortunately, it may take a while until the series is officially translated as it typically takes a few months for a series to be licensed after its Korean debut.
However, considering the currentpopularity ofSolo Levelingaround the worldand the anticipation surrounding the sequel,Solo Leveling: Ragnarokmay defy convention and be licensed sooner than most manhwa. For now, the web novel ofSolo Leveling: Ragnarokis available in English from Tapas.

As such, some of the highest expectations of the sequel are centered around the visuals and art.
Fortunately, besides the stunning new key visual, KakaoPage’s website also reveals a few glimpses of the manhwa and what to expect from the plot, with a few excerpts fromSolo Leveling’s epilogue as well, and so far,Solo Leveling:Ragnarok’sart seems like it will manage to live up to these expectationsfairly well. Though JIN is still fairly unknown as an artist, the few previews reveal the sequel may be able to recreate the same character designs and visuals fans have come to know and love inSolo Leveling.
