How do players who really played Last Epoch rate it? TrueGG Rating 60.6%

Release date: Feb 21, 2024 Data as of 2026-10-19 View on Steam ↗

Players who really played rate it lower than Steam overall. Early impressions are weaker, so the first few hours tend to decide whether it clicks. Recent reviews are falling.

Think twice if you are

  • Players buying on the promise of future updates (complaints about the developers)
  • Players who need stable servers (reports of connection issues)
  • Players who want a polished, finished game (reports it feels unfinished)

Summary

Last Epoch has a TrueGG Rating of 60.6%: the positive share among 1,395 reviews written in the last 180 days by players with 20+ hours. That is 15.8 points below Steam's overall 76.3%, so players who really play the current version are harsher than the headline number suggests (all time: 78.9%).

Reviews written under 2 hours make up 5% of the total, and only 40% of them are positive. Some players bounce off early, but those who get past the opening rate it higher. Steam accepts refund requests within 2 hours of play and 14 days of purchase.

Beyond the first hours, approval is fairly even across playtime.

Negative reviews most often mention updates and the developers, crashes and bugs, and boredom. Positive reviews praise how fun it feels.

Among Japanese-language reviews, the TrueGG Rating is 74.9%, 14.3 points above all languages.

Re-weighting reviews by trust signals (playtime, length, how the game was obtained) barely changes the rating (74.9% adjusted), so Steam's number is not noticeably distorted by key giveaways or throwaway reviews.

All figures come from Steam's public review counts, and topics are counted with our published dictionary (no AI). Data as of 2026-10-19.

Why it is rated this way

What drives the rating

Complaints center on live operations and online play (Updates & developers, Servers & connection). These shift over time, so weigh recent reviews more than the all-time figure. It is also a game many people bounce off early (early reviews are much less positive than those of players who stuck with it).
