Blocklords

Last Epoch

Blocklords is a blockchain-based medieval strategy RPG that has marketed itself as a persistent, multiplayer world. However, as of 2024, few blockchain or web3 games have achieved high user numbers outside of narrow crypto audiences. Player engagement is modest, and activity is much lower than typical mainstream MMOs or strategy games. It remains niche, with most of its player base from crypto enthusiasts.

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.
