Netmarble’s action-packed RPG just got a fantasy upgrade—with Frieren, Fern, and Stark joining the roster.
Netmarble’s Solo Leveling: ARISE is teaming up with Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End in a new crossover event that’s packed with spells, smashes, and SSR goodies. The update, announced on October 24, 2025, brings three new playable hunters straight from the hit anime and manga series, plus exclusive rewards, fresh dungeons, and a hefty new weapon for Sung Jinwoo himself
Meet the Magic Trio: Frieren, Fern, and Stark
The collab introduces three new SSR Hunters ready to wreck shop:
- Frieren – A water-type Mage who controls the battlefield with precision magic. Her ultimate, Basic Magic Attack (Zoltraak) – Ultimate, unleashes a powerful magical blast.
- Fern – A fire-type Mage who dumps all her mana into one enormous Zoltraak burst. Her ultimate, Demon-killing Magic (Zoltraak) – Mighty, is as devastating as it sounds.
- Stark – A fire-type Tank who swings a colossal axe. His ultimate, Lightning Strike: Annihilation, smashes the ground like he’s been waiting all week to let loose.
Each collab hunter gets a matching exclusive weapon (yes, that includes Frieren’s and Fern’s Staffs and Stark’s hulking Axe). And don’t worry, Jinwoo fans—he’s getting his own shiny new toy: the SSR light-element “Sword of the Hero.”
Freebies and Boss Fights Galore
Alongside the update, Netmarble is running a “Travel Companions!” Check-In Gift Event. Log in to scoop up rewards, including a shiny SSR Hunter Selection Ticket tied to the collab.
Players can also head into the event dungeon to take on Aura the Guillotine, a fearsome boss that’s not here to mess around.
New Content Drops and QoL Tweaks
The update also adds a few extras for dedicated grinders:
- New Boss: Monarch of Steel [Valtair] arrives in the Workshop of Brilliant Light mode.
- Difficulty Adjustments across the board make high-end content more accessible.
- New Instance Dungeon Boss for those craving a challenge.
- “The Overseer’s Forbidden Library”—a mysterious new content drop—goes live on November 6.
