BookWalker launched a rebuilt website, apps, and a reader in March. The rebuilt system includes the previously announced Lightweight Content Protection (LCP) DRM system, which allows users to access purchases through LCP-compatible reading apps outside of BookWalker. All English-language manga and light novels moved to the new BookWalker website and app, while Japanese content will remain on the existing website and app.
BookWalker Global changed in ownership from BookWalker Co., Ltd. to M12 Media LLC (formerly J-Novel Club LLC) in March 2025. BookWalker Co., Ltd. and J-Novel Club/M12 Media LLC are both Kadokawa Group companies.
