2026 Solo Leveling Replacement Drops New Trailer Ahead of July Premiere

If you’re missing out on Solo Leveling this year, there’s a new Summer 2026 anime hitting this July that’s going to serve as the perfect replacement for you. Solo Leveling wrapped up its second season last year with no signs of potentially coming back for more, and a possible third season of the anime is still a year or more away from actually hitting our screens. But while it’s going to be a longer wait for more, Tomb Raider King looks like it’s going to be scratching that same itch with its own action.

Why Tomb Raider King Comes for Solo Leveling’s Crown

Tomb Raider King has been having echoes of Solo Leveling ever since it made its initial trailer debut. The series follows a person with a special edge above everyone else, and is set in a world where mysterious dungeons have popped up all over the world and people have made careers out of diving into him. But rather than following a weak protagonist who gets the ability to level up, it follows a protagonist who’s betrayed and finds himself sent 15 years into the past.

Using his knowledge of the future and where all the best gear is hidden, Ryoga then steadily becomes one of the strongest and most well off people in a wild new future he’s able to craft with his own hands. We’ll have to see if this one gets as much attention as Solo Leveling did when it hit, or if that series is just a lightning in a bottle success.
