Last Epoch

Battlerite is an arena brawler/MOBA released in 2017, developed by Stunlock Studios. The game received positive attention at launch but quickly declined in player count after its initial surge, with few major updates since 2019. Currently, it maintains a small but dedicated niche audience, with estimated daily players in the low hundreds based on Steam activity and lack of major content updates.

Last Epoch is an action RPG released in early 2024, developed by Eleventh Hour Games. It has received strong attention from the ARPG community, especially in the wake of Diablo IV's mixed reception. Daily player count is estimated around 70,000 based on Steam charts peaks and genre trends for new, well-received indie ARPGs. Continued post-launch content could sustain or grow this. It is not an MMO, as it does not feature a true persistent world or large-scale multiplayer environments—multiplayer is limited to smaller parties.
