The world devolved into chaos as a game-like system reduced the population to a series of statistics and screens. Confusion reigned as everyone struggled to survive in this new reality — everyone but one man. Anthony Franklin had a secret: he had lived through this exact series of events ninety-nine times in a row. Drawing on centuries of accumulated knowledge — every play, shortcut, and strategy — he must save as many lives as possible. He will contend with vicious boss monsters, elude the ever-watching eyes of the system administrators, and guard his back from scheming players with their own agendas. With every individual carrying their own goals, dreams, and fears, shepherding them won't be easy. Win or lose, his 100th run will be his last.

When the apocalypse comes, Ashtoreth betrays Hell to fight for humanity. She was always too optimistic, too energetic, too nice — never fit in with the other archfiends. She was supposed to study humanity to help destroy it; instead, she fell in love with it. But as she tears through the tutorial recruiting allies to her cause, she quickly realizes something strange: the humans don't trust her. Sure, her main ability is [Consume Heart] and her class is [Bloodfire Annihilator], but that doesn't make her evil — it just means every enemy drops an extra health potion! It may take some work, but Ashtoreth is optimistic the humans will come around. After all, she has an important secret to tell them: Hell is afraid of humanity.

Dash's great-grandfather was one of the Fifteen who saved humanity during the System Apocalypse, founding the corporations that now rule the solar system. That legacy should have been his — until his father was destroyed by corpo politics, leaving Dash with nothing but a single building on Earth 2.0. When Dash nearly dies, a broken System manifests: barely functional, stripped to the bones, but carrying the tinkerer's trait Hoqalo — letting him forge gear that punches far above its tier. The more he digs into why his System came out wrong, the more it looks like sabotage. Someone with corporate reach wanted the Kallum bloodline to stay down. With his hands, his tools, and friends willing to go to corpo hell and back, Dash sets out to steal his future back — with interest.

In a post-apocalyptic world of magic and machinery, Jack Knight is an orphan caught between a life-altering decision: join the military to fight demon hordes, or sell his soul to the corporations. Neither option appeals to a shut-in scraping by paycheck to paycheck to cover his sister's medical expenses. In a strange turn of events that nearly kills him, an Angel presents Jack with a third option: awaken, and become her instrument of revenge — and gain the ultimate power.

Layton just wanted a weekend alone in the wilderness. Instead he woke up in a nightmare. Earth has been inducted into a multiversal system, and survival is no longer guaranteed. Forced into a brutal wave dungeon with no warning, no tutorial, and no gear, Layton accidentally locks himself into the weakest class — Healer. That's when things start feeling off. He's leveling far too fast, and his so-called support class feels anything but weak. His only ally is a too-intelligent, bloodthirsty predator that might be more than just an animal. Something is wrong with this system. Layton just has to survive long enough to figure out what.

It has been two years since the Shift — when most technology stopped working and the laws of physics changed. Humanity has been brought to its knees. Like other survivors, Noah Henson has heard rumors of the Aelves, who seem as good an explanation as any for what caused the Shift. But for Noah, survival comes first — sometimes even before self-respect. Lawless, post-apocalypse America has forced him to make many difficult decisions, and he has never seemed to choose correctly. He will get a lucky break in a big way, though: a mysterious orb with otherworldly power. In time, perhaps Noah will find another path — and if he does die during the Shift, maybe it won't be the end of his story.

Choosing a college when your family is struggling is hard enough without a meteor crashing nearby. In the aftermath, Matt's home city is locked down by a mysterious dome, corporations race to monopolize new resources, and people are suddenly developing powers through a System with seemingly sinister intentions. Matt decides to use his stealth class to adapt and survive — but staying hidden in the shadows of a LitRPG apocalypse, where the price of failure is death and the prize for winning is beyond imagination, is harder than it sounds.

Blake thought he was sacrificing his life to defeat the alien overlord. Instead, he finds himself ten years in his past — before Earth is aware of the malicious AI threat heading its way. With a second chance, he must leverage his in-depth knowledge of the AI's system and his hard-earned martial skill to grow strong enough to defend his people and establish a faction capable of uniting humanity. He gains levels, recruits members, and builds his base of power — all in a race against a threat only he knows is coming.

In the town of Destiny, Florida, magic portals open and spew out undead horrors. A few lucky survivors discover that killing the invaders grants magic powers following familiar game and comic-book tropes. For Maya Wennefer, that's only the beginning of her problems. Invaders from another world, ordinary people discovering easier paths to power, and the government's reaction to the new reality — surviving all of it is hard enough, let alone becoming a superhero. As chaos spreads and stronger monsters appear, human greed may yet prove more dangerous than any invader.

When the ark began emergency jettisoning colonists, one got unlucky three times: his capsule was shot down above a forbidden Circle, crashed next to the White Devil's tomb, and he climbed into a wounded noxwolf's lair and discovered Starblood. Other Ascendants would call it good fortune — but had he left it alone, he might have remained a normal person. Now someone with a Slate, Attributes, and Runes isn't a typical colonist from Earth in a world that's far from ordinary — especially when he has a voice in his head. A spinoff set in the same universe as Project Stellar, Starblood follows those who escaped Earth's catastrophe into deep space.

Joseph Sullivan is at an all-time low: lost his job, fiancée dumped him, moved back to his parents' basement. Then the System arrives and Earth becomes a playing field in a contest among the gods. Provided the ideal stat array for a physical combat class, the choice is obvious — until Joe fat-thumbs the selection screen and ends up with Spellcaster. His starting Intelligence stat: 1. With a useless class and only his raw strength to back him up, Joe decides class optimization is for dummies. He pumps every stat point into Strength and sets out to win the whole damned thing. A real wizard should be measured by how much he can bench.

Anya Nowicki, along with thousands of people around the globe, has found herself a host for alien technology known as the Archive. The Archive allows its hosts to alter their minds and bodies in an instant through holographic menu systems — granting super strength, magical abilities, or mastery in an almost infinite number of skills. However, Anya has also become the target for nightmarish shape-shifting creatures that came to Earth following the extraterrestrial tech. The Archive can grant great power, but it may not be enough to survive the horde of murderous aliens hunting them down.

What would happen if Mana touched a Realm thus far deprived of it? The people of Earth are about to find out, and it's not going to be pretty. The moment the barrier keeping supernatural powers out collapsed, only the System's intervention held the world together. Mia is one of those tiny people on the floating rocks in the void — and she has much bigger problems, like goblins trying to eat her. It's not all bad: she may have monsters trying to eat her and disturbingly pointy ears, but she seems to have a real talent for magic.

The system came. The apocalypse ended. New worlds have merged with Earth. For Bain Lee, it means leveling his Ocularist class beyond its previous limits. With this strange class and the ability to see into the inner workings of the system, he may find the skills needed to earn his redemption — and discover the secret behind the system itself.

On an ordinary day, an alien descends to Earth and unleashes devastation, triggering Earth's premature initiation into a universe-spanning empire of cultivators, beasts, and entities of ungodly power — all guided by a mysterious AI System. The System's first quest? Kill someone. Amidst the chaos, Alistair must choose whether to fight for power or stand against evil. Separated from his family, he must navigate a world where power is won through conflict and cultivation leads to the Peak.

Seven years ago, the Frozen Flame brought magic to Earth — but not to Dalton, who received only scars. Now a lonely shut-in known as "Ezzen," he's resigned himself to an online life of secondhand magic and fanboying over the superhuman Vaetna. When fate splinters and magic finally finds him, it's the best day of his life — and the worst. He suddenly becomes a resource in a cold war over magical power, hunted by paramilitary organizations and Flame-worshipping cults alike. Worse, the reality of being a flamebearer is nothing like the apotheosis he dreamed of: it is cruel and twisted, the bloody path of monsters.

The Connected System arrives on Earth without warning, bringing earthquakes, unconsciousness, and Adapted bodies in its wake. Lochlan Brady and his family were heading home from a camping trip when the Connection appears. He wakes to find his wife missing and his two teenage daughters counting on him. Loch just wants to protect his daughters and find his wife. But growing power brings growing responsibility — and the attention of some of the most powerful beings in the Connected System.

Seventy years ago, portals appeared on Earth and humanity was given a stark choice: enter or die. Those who survived all twelve planets in the system would be allowed to return home. Humanity fought bitterly and succeeded — but the cost was catastrophic. Nate lost everyone he cared about. After stepping through the final portal, he discovers Earth is part of the system and what remains of humanity is too weak to go home. A new portal appears, and a single step takes him back in time to the day the end of the world began — giving him a chance to rewrite history and ensure humanity survives this time.

When alien beings address all of humanity, they deliver a warning: forces that destroyed their species' males are heading for Earth. In exchange for access to the System, they ask only for cooperation and survival. Mathew Alexander Dunphy knows it's all a lie. He saw the truth with his own eyes. Nobody believes him. They call him mad. In a world of alien-controlled survival games, Mathew fights back with mad-scientist ingenuity, crafting-based powers, and a stubborn refusal to let either the aliens or the apocalypse win.

The stronger his opponent, the harder Nil hits. Saving an innocent from a drug-crazed superhuman should have left him broken — instead it wins the Nexus's attention and an opportunity to make a difference. Nil is done feeling small and watching his family scrape by. Apocalypse Arena holds the key: a multiverse-spanning battleground where champions fight to keep the Scourge at bay. Pain, death, and heartbreak await all who run the gauntlets — but Nil has what it takes to grapple his way to the top. The multiverse is watching. He'll give them a show.
