Kodansha USA published the manga adaptation of Katarina's Shangri-La Frontier web novel by Ryōsuke Fuji and describes the story:
Second-year high school student Rakurō Hizutome is only interested in one thing: finding “bad games” and beating them. His gaming skills are second to none and no game is too bad for him to enjoy. So when he's introduced to the new VR game Shangri-La Frontier, he does what he does best—the bare minimum and skips the prologue to get right into the action. But can an expert gamer like Rakurō discover all the secrets that Shangri-La Frontier hides…?
Katarina launched the novel series on the Shōsetsuka ni Narō (Let's Be Novelists) website in May 2017. Katarina also writes an additional novel series in Weekly Shōnen Magazine.
Fuji launched the Shangri-La Frontier manga in Weekly Shōnen Magazine in July 2020.
Netmarble Nexus is also developing a game and Netmarble is publishing it.
