The initiative aims to create a two-way engagement funnel: introducing gamers to webtoons and guiding WEBTOON<\/cite> fans into the gaming ecosystem, especially for series with strong game-like worldbuilding.<\/p>\n

This marks another step in WEBTOON<\/cite> Entertainment’s ongoing collaborations with the gaming industry. In January 2025, the company partnered with Japanese game developer CAPCOM<\/a><\/cite> to host a WEBTOON<\/cite> contest inspired by the Monster Hunter Wilds universe.<\/p>\n

The contest was part of WEBTOON<\/cite>‘s Branded Contest program, which connects creators with official brand partners. U.S.-based creators can submit entries to WEBTOON<\/cite>‘s platform, choosing from three prompts inspired by the Monster Hunter<\/cite> universe. Prompts are available on WEBTOON<\/cite> Entertainment’s website.<\/p>\n
