Ankama is releasing its new Krosmoz mobile app and introducing a new tab in the Ankama Launcher, both of which are for webtoons.
What is a webtoon?
This is a graphic novel format specially designed to be read on digital platforms; more than simply a digitized comic book page, a webtoon presents a tweaked version of the panels' spatial arrangement and of the narrative to make reading dynamic and user-friendly.
Split up in the form of episodes, the webtoons produced by Ankama move away from chapter-based episodes originally intended for paper format; an episode amounts to about 60 to 80 panels, or 4 to 5 minutes of reading.
What content?
First off, the app will be exclusively for webtoons and Ankama news. It will evolve over time to include VOD produced by Ankama, to start with.
The webtoon platform already features the first few episodes of iconic series: DOFUS Manga, WAKFU Manga, DOFUS Arena, Ogrest, DOFUS Monster, Julith and Jahash, Maskemane, Remington, Tango Mango, Pandala, and more.
Webtoons are available in French.
Some of them are also available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese.
How do you access them?
Webtoons will be available directly on mobile devices with the new Krosmoz app, and in the new webtoon tab of the Launcher.
The mobile app known as Krosmoz, available for iOS 15.1 and Android (API 24) or their more recent versions, is free to download.
How do you log in to the app?
To log in to the app, you have to enter the login ID and password for your Ankama account. To access the login page, click on the MENU button, then "My Account".
How do you get episodes?
Webtoons are sold in prepaid episode packs you can use at your leisure. You can spend all the episodes for a single series or spread out over multiple series.
The first episode of every series is free, giving you a chance to check out new series.
The packs can be accessed in the app shop or the Launcher.
The app and the launcher are linked. If you start a webtoon on your PC, you can continue reading it on your phone 😊.
