Server Update

Hello Travelers,

Thank you all for the amazing support for our launch, hitting over 150,000 concurrent players! With this burst of volume, an issue was discovered within an API being used for our backend services. We immediately got into calls with several of our providers, and continue to actively be in the war room with them to get this issue resolved and get everyone online.

For players who are looking for a solo experience, the fully offline mode has made it so you can get in game right away and start playing. Though, while this is available for those who are happy to play offline, we understand that's not a replacement for online play. It does not at all decrease our efforts to get players in-game online with friends and other travelers.

We have an active running update on our #news channel at https://discord.gg/lastepoch, as well as on the discussions here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/899770/discussions/0/4338725580140385603/

Thank you for your patience as we get these launch jitters resolved. We're all hands on deck to get everyone in and playing the way they want. We have a whole bunch of servers ready for everyone once once we get this API issue resolved, and look forward to hearing about all your travels in Eterra!

Last Epoch review

The first thing most people hear about Last Epoch is that it's an action RPG with a clever trading system. And that's true, it does have smart mechanics for bartering gear and ranking up your affiliation with the Merchant's Guild to equip better purchased goods, which prevents you from making some canny deals and immediately walking off in endgame armor. But the thing that's really clever is that you can opt out entirely...

Last Epoch review - a worthy challenger to the ARPG throne

After five years in early access, Last Epoch is finally here. Arriving squarely between the launches of Blizzard behemoth Diablo 4 and the upcoming Path of Exile 2 from Grinding Gear Games, this ARPG has long been heralded as the ideal middle ground between D4's beginner-friendly systems and Path of Exile's unrelenting depth and complexity. Built by Eleventh Hour Games, originally formed as a passion project by developers who met through Reddit, Last Epoch certainly bears the mark of that scrappy upstart origin. Yet it's also clear that this is a game built by people who love the genre and have spent a lot of time playing it, and the result is one of the most delightfully player-friendly and welcoming RPGs I've ever played - one that pushes the genre forward in some ways its bigger-name rivals would do well to take note of.

Last Epoch 1.0 is Live!

Greetings Travelers,

Today is a historic day for the Last Epoch team and everyone here at Eleventh Hour Games (EHG). What started as an after-hours passion project has blossomed into one of the most anticipated releases in the ARPG genre, and we are blown away by the support we have received.

Thank You. Thank you to our families for putting up with us while we worked long into the night, and thank you to our community for supporting us even when all we had was a dream and a few vaguely Traveler-shaped pixels.

We look forward to seeing you all in Eterra, atop leaderboards, and expanding across time in the Monolith of Fate.

A few reminders:

Server Queue:
We have implemented a server queue to help support the launch. However, if you’re interested in playing offline you can of course bypass any queue we end up having. You can find instructions on enabling true offline mode here: Last Epoch 1.0 Patch Notes

Twitch Drops unlock TOMORROW.

Support:
If you are having issues with the game, the first step with Steam is always to try verifying integrity files, if that doesn’t resolve the problem, or your issue is account related, our support team will be ready and waiting right here: https://support.lastepoch.com/hc/en-us
