This article contains spoilers for Solo Leveling.
In 2024, a relatively unknown anime series appeared and quickly rose to the top as one of the popular new hits of the decade, and that series was none other than Solo Leveling. Solo Leveling follows the adventure of Sung Jinwoo, as he goes from being a rather weak Hunter to gaining the power of leveling up and becoming a calamity. The plot appeals to many due to its high-octane action and fast-paced story.
New Solo Leveling Movie Is Reportedly Coming In 2026
Solo Leveling is getting unexpected content - a brand new movie. This movie could be coming as early as 2026.
Unfortunately, ever since Solo Leveling Season 2 came to an end in 2025, fans have been worried about the future of the franchise. This is because no new animated projects have been confirmed so far. While some fans even believe that Solo Leveling is dead, that could not be further from the truth. New leaks about a major upcoming Solo Leveling and Fortnite collab prove just how big the series has become. With such a big collab, there is no way that A-1 Pictures will let the series die. Solo Leveling is incredibly successful and will get new animated content eventually, either in the form of a third season or a theatrical movie release.
Solo Leveling Is Getting A New Collab With Fortnite
- Solo Leveling X Fortnite will be released sometime in 2026
- Sung Jinwoo and other characters to be added as skins
Recently, Solo Leveling fans found out some incredible news through leaks pertaining to the upcoming projects for the franchise. It has been revealed that Solo Leveling is set to get its biggest collab yet. This collab brings Solo Leveling into Fortnite, one of the biggest online games that there is.
Right now, there is no official confirmation on this collab, but fans know very well that it's on the way already, and they anticipate it to be officially confirmed in the next Fortnite update.
Based on everything that's been revealed so far, this new Fortnite collab could be coming in 2026. Fans could be seeing the likes of Sung Jinwoo and other characters make an appearance as new skins in Fortnite. Other characters that fans anticipate being included are the likes of Cha Hae-In, Beru, and maybe even Igris. Either way, fans are excited for anything that Fortnite might throw their way.
Major Collab With Solo Leveling Proves The Series is Nowhere Near Over
- Solo Leveling Has a Bright Future Ahead
While it's true that the future of Solo Leveling seemed shaky after the conclusion of Season 2 last year, the fact is that it is still going strong.
Solo Leveling has experienced massive success overseas, but despite that, the studio animating it seems awfully quiet. Even now, in 2026, there are still no official updates about the upcoming anime season for the series, and that's certainly very curious.
I am the record of your struggles, the evidence of your resistance, and the reward of your sufferings. I am death, I am eternal rest, I am terror. - Ashborn to Sung Jinwoo, Solo Leveling Manhwa
However, this Fortnite collab definitely eases some fans' minds. After all, if Solo Leveling is getting a major collab that some bigger series, such as One Piece, have not received yet, it can only mean that the series is going to continue strong in the future with more animated content. It's clear that Solo Leveling has become too big to ignore, and new projects are definitely going to pop up, maybe sooner than fans expect.
Solo Leveling Season 3 Or A New Solo Leveling Movie Could Be Coming Soon
While, at the moment, no future animated projects have officially been confirmed, it's clear that the series has two paths it could choose to take moving forward.
The first option is, of course, a third anime season, and that's what fans initially thought would happen at some point in 2026. Solo Leveling season 3 was a hugely anticipated project, but it has become clear that, at the very least, it's not coming anytime soon. With 2026 having already begun, it's unlikely that fans will get a third season this year, especially when no statements have been made concerning it.
Best Manhwa Like Solo Leveling You Should Read
Solo Leveling presents awesome fights, sensational developments, and incredible characters. Here are similar manhwa that embody these narratives.
At the moment, it is likelier for Solo Leveling to get a theatrical movie release, especially after the huge success of Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle. A production committee report was recently leaked for Solo Leveling, and it was revealed that the studio is considering a movie adaptation instead of a third season. This movie is yet to be officially confirmed, but fans anticipate it to be released in late 2026 or early 2027, if the report is to be believed. It's unclear what this movie would exactly cover. It could either be original anime-only content, or go on to adapt the parts that would have made it into Season 3.
Of course, even after the Solo Leveling movie or the third season, the story will not conclude. The studio will undoubtedly go on to adapt the remainder of the manhwa and give Jinwoo's story a proper ending. With that said, fans can expect even more seasons and movies in the future, even after these initial projects have concluded.
Solo Leveling Is Likely to Continue After The End Of Jinwoo's Story
- Solo Leveling’s sequel being animated in the Future is a Huge Possibility
- Creator Chugong could return and create new sequels or spin-offs
Solo Leveling has become so big that its success might stretch beyond just Sung Jinwoo’s main story that was seen in the novel.
As many fans know, Solo Leveling already has an official sequel, known as Solo Leveling: Ragnarok. This sequel follows the story of Jinwoo’s son, Sung Suho. This story has already concluded in the webnovel and has an ongoing manhwa. It could be the next step for the franchise after the conclusion of the Solo Leveling anime in the next couple of years. If Solo Leveling gets new animated content every two years, it won't be long before a Ragnarok adaptation drops. Fans would definitely love to see the studio delve into this sequel as well.
There is, of course, also the possibility of Chugong, the original creator of Solo Leveling, returning in full force with a new series. His return could come either with a new sequel or with a spin-off series — both being possibilities that he has hinted at himself in the past. With so much going on, it is quite clear that Solo Leveling is establishing itself as a huge franchise that will be running for the next decade, if not even longer.
Solo Leveling has two seasons out right now, one with 12 episodes, and the other with 13, for a combined episode count of 25 episodes available to watch right now. The series can be streamed on Crunchyroll for fans to enjoy while awaiting any more news concerning the third season. There have been no major announcements about a third season so far. Fans can get more Solo Leveling content via the Manhwa.
