Solo Leveling: ARISE powers through with three character rarities - Rare (R), Super Rare (SR) and Super Super Rare (SSR).

Regarding the probability of obtaining characters under these respective categories, players have a 90% chance of pulling an R character, an 8.8% chance of summoning an SR persona and a 1.2% probability of getting an SSR character.

Solo Leveling: ARISE pertains to a genre-typical gameplay. Once you enter the game, you will have control over Sung Jin Woo and the supporting cast of characters. While some levels will be Jin Woo-focused, the remaining will allow the side characters to take centre stage.

Per reports circling about the game, the RPG model of Solo Leveling: ARISE harnesses the authentic vision faithful to the source material. People who've read the manhwa or watched the anime will definitely have the advantage of familiarity before jumping into the game.
