The anime adaptation of beloved Manhwa Solo Leveling recently made headlines after surpassing One Piece on Crunchyroll, making it the most popular anime on the streaming platform. Moreover, according to renowned leakers on social media, rumor has it that the franchise might be coming to Fortnite. 

Fortnite leakers Shepshal Nick and FNBRintel initiated the rumors on Musk’s X (formerly known as Twitter) without giving any further details about whether Solo Leveling’s arrival to the popular battle royale will only feature skins or an all-new event.

By the time of reporting, the anime adaptation of the popular Korean Manhwa officially surpassed One Piece in rating on the popular anime streaming platform, Crunchyroll. It currently holds the most-rated medal, sitting on 595,493 reviews, in comparison to One Piece which garnered 599,731.
