Last Epoch

Dynast.io is a relatively new indie survival RPG released in 2023. It appears to be in the .io genre, which typically attracts small, sustained communities with daily player counts in the low thousands unless they achieve mainstream popularity (which is rare). The lack of a major publisher and low mainstream visibility suggests a niche player base.

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.
