Controlling Ki-gyu Kim , the player faces a curse that keeps him stuck at level 1. The story takes place in "Another Tower," a brand-new setting that expands on the events of the original webtoon and introduces new challenges.

The demo includes exploration of the Pantheon area, as well as customization systems with random upgrades. There's also a boss fight designed to showcase the depth of combat and the strategic possibilities of the game.

Technology and launch forecast

The game utilizes Unreal Engine 5 , delivering more cinematic visuals and detailed animations. At the same time, the controls were designed to make it easier for new players to get started without sacrificing the complexity of the combat.

However, the early access release is scheduled for the third quarter of 2026. The full version is expected to arrive in the first half of 2027 for PlayStation 5 , Xbox Series, and Nintendo Switch 2 .

Created by Tae_A, the webtoon debuted in 2021 and surpassed 210 million views, with prominent placements on platforms such as Kakao Page , Piccoma, and Tapas.
