According to a news release from game director Judd Cobler on the official Last Epoch website, version 1.0 of the game will arrive on our screens on February 21, 2024.

Last Epoch 1.0 release date and road map

  • January 11, 2024: Item Factions - Trade versus Prophecies

In the larger statement, Cobler recognized the Last Epoch release date was later than we had all hoped for. However, with the sketchy-at-best record of Kickstarter-funded games and a series of bug-ridden and half-backed releases of late, I can’t help thinking waiting for the game to be ready is a more sustainable business model. The busy December release calendar was also cited as an issue, with Cobler stating they “didn’t want the ARPG community to have to choose” between several new offerings. 

Sustainable new content releases every few months are also promised, adding to the game as well as refining and balancing it, with everything from new end-game content to quality-of-life features in the mix.
