Developer Eleventh Hour Games' anticipated title, Last Epoch, is finally set for a full release after the first playable demo launched in April 2018. The hack-and-slash action RPG pits players against the elements and dangers of dungeons, for the conquest of gold, weapons, and bounty. Similar to other games in its genre, such as Diablo and Path of Exile, Last Epoch shows promise to bring new life to players looking for variety and a different degree of difficulty.
Since March 2023, players have been in the early-access beta of the game, where they can choose from a pool of different classes, like Primalist, Rogue, and Sentinel, and embark on journeys to gather the best equipment possible. Eleventh Hour Games brings Last Epoch to its fullest potential, while also planning for some fun incentives to a player base that has waited for many years.
Last Epoch Release Time
As per the release date and time displayed on Last Epoch's Steam access page and official forum, the Last Epoch 1.0 update will be available on Steam starting at 9 am PST (Pacific Time) on February 21. For players with the early access release, a prompt will become available to upgrade Last Epoch to the 1.0 update.
Eleventh Hour Games also announced that Last Epoch’s online services would be down for maintenance 24 hours before the game's full launch. At this time, Last Epoch will not be available to play until the game's full release.
