A Dream Realized: The Official Launch of Last Epoch

Greetings, Travelers! Judd Cobler here, Game Director for Last Epoch and founder of 11th Hour Games. It's an exciting time for both new and long-standing members of our community as we officially launch Last Epoch, a game that has evolved from a dream to reality thanks to your incredible support.

The Genesis of Last Epoch

Our journey began in 2017, sparked by a simple Reddit post. A group of action RPG (ARPG) enthusiasts, including myself, embarked on a mission to craft the next iconic loot-based ARPG. With no funding and a team mostly new to game development, our passion for ARPGs fueled our ambition. Thanks to Kickstarter and our amazing community, our small team has grown to over 90 dedicated individuals from around the globe.

What Makes Last Epoch Unique

Last Epoch stands out as a top-down action RPG where players traverse through time to save the world of Eterra. With 15 Mastery classes, over 125 class skills, a deep loot system, and an expansive endgame, the game offers a rich and engaging experience. The inclusion of unique items, powerful idols, and a legendary system enhances gameplay, making every discovery and battle exhilarating.

The Falconer and Warlock: New Masteries Unveiled

With the full release, we introduce two new masteries: the Falconer and the Warlock. The Falconer, a mastery for the Rogue, excels in tactical traps and deadly falconry, while the Warlock, a new class for the Acolyte, delves into dark magic to weaken and destroy opponents. These additions, along with new unique items, further enrich the player's arsenal and strategic possibilities.

Empowering the Community and Enhancing Gameplay

Our commitment to listening to and growing with our community is unwavering. Numerous updates and balance changes, detailed in our 32-page update log, reflect our dedication to providing an exceptional gaming experience. The 1.0 release also brings significant visual and gameplay improvements, including overhauled character animations, interface enhancements, and updated enemy models.

A World of Discovery and Challenge Awaits

Last Epoch is more than just a game; it's a world teeming with adventure, mystery, and endless possibilities. Whether you're a newcomer or a seasoned ARPG veteran, there's never been a better time to dive into the world of Eterra. With comprehensive starter guides and an in-game guide, everyone can embark on this epic journey with confidence.

The Future of Eterra

As we look forward to the future, we're excited about the plans we have in store for Last Epoch. The full release marks just the beginning of our journey together in Eterra, with new powers, challenges, and loot awaiting discovery. We're incredibly grateful for your support and can't wait for you to experience all that Last Epoch has to offer.

Join us in celebrating this monumental milestone and discover why Last Epoch is poised to become the next great ARPG. See you in Eterra on February 21st!
