"Give me that limited edition album and I will play this until it will be discontinued again," one fan wrote.

"OMG!!! I thought BTS World was gone forever! I was the best damn manager ever. Bring back actor Jungkook!" another fan wrote.

"In honour of season 2 coming out can we all just take a moment and hold space for namjoon’s acting and his storyline in season 1," one other fan added.

Others expressed their excitement to see band members Jin, Taehyung, Namjoon, Jimin, j-hope, Jungkook, and Suga reprise their roles from the BTS World storyline.

"Everyone that keeps calling for "actor" jin/tae/joon/etc this may be your only chance cuz they ain't doing dramas but they acted the shiz outta some BTS World! Fingers crossed they will reprise some roles or have new ones!" a fan shared.

"BTS WORLD SEASON 2 !?!?!?!?!?!?!? THE HECK I COULDNT EVEN FINISHED THE PREVIOUS ONE AND YOU STOPPED THAT ONE AND YOU COME WITH THIS !?!?!? ANYWAYY YAYYYY!??????!!" another fan added.

BTS World: A game that reshaped fan engagement

First launched in June 2019, BTS World offered a unique fusion of storytelling and puzzle-solving, allowing fans to guide the band's career from its pre-debut days to global superstardom.

It featured dynamic scenarios where players managed the group’s schedules, responded to challenges, and unlocked exclusive multimedia content. The game was praised for its innovative approach to fan engagement, blending real-life inspiration with fictional narratives.

Additionally, players can look forward to new features, including:

• Exclusive 5-star character cards to enhance gameplay.
• Daily rewards and special events, such as the seven-day check-in bonus.
• Enhanced interaction mechanics, enabling players to connect more deeply with each band member through virtual storytelling and management.
• Exclusive content, such as 10,000 never-before-seen photos and 100 video clips of the band, all accessible within the game

Season 2 comes at a time when the group remains a cultural phenomenon, even as some members temporarily focus on solo projects and military service.

By reviving the game with new content, Netmarble keeps fans engaged while introducing new players to the BTS universe. The integration of storytelling with interactive puzzle gameplay continues to set the game apart from other K-pop-themed apps.

The update will be available globally on iOS and Android. Special in-game sales and bonus events are planned throughout December to celebrate the launch, including free card draws and unique item packages for players who log in during specific promotional periods.
