You know what's worse than breaking up with your girlfriend? Being stuck with her prize-winning show cat. And you know what's worse than that? An alien invasion, the destruction of all man-made structures on Earth, and the systematic exploitation of all survivors for a sadistic intergalactic game show. Join Coast Guard vet Carl and Princess Donut as they try to survive the end of the world — or just get to the next level — in a video game-like, trap-filled fantasy dungeon that is actually the set of a reality television show with countless viewers across the galaxy. Exploding goblins. Magical potions. Deadly, drug-dealing llamas. Survival is optional. Keeping the viewers entertained is not.

On just another normal Monday, the world changed. The universe reached a threshold humanity didn't even know existed, and it was time to finally be integrated into the vast multiverse — a place where power is the only thing anyone can truly rely on. Jake, a seemingly average office worker, finds himself thrust into a tutorial filled with dangers and opportunities. In a world that should breed fear and concern, an environment that makes his fellow coworkers falter, Jake instead finds himself thriving. Perhaps Jake was born for this kind of world.

Humanity has been pushed to the brink of extinction by an ever-evolving demonic threat. Portals open faster than ever, Towers burst into the skies, and Dungeons are mined below the last safe havens. The demons are winning. Quest Academy trains the next generation of Heroes to hold the line. Salvatore Argento has never seen a demon and never aspired to be a Hero — but his unique power may be the one thing that tips the odds in humanity's favor.

Perry Z has a Magical Destiny. Born to a Magical Fantasy Princess and a nine-to-five Supervillain in the most superhero-riddled city in the world, Perry has never felt adequate — no talent for magic and not a scrap of superpowers to his name. When The System boots and unlocks his powers, it forces him to follow in his father's footsteps, but he'd rather take after his mother. Maybe there's a way he can do both.

E-rank hunter Jinwoo Sung has no money, no talent, and no prospects—and apparently no luck, either. When he enters a hidden double dungeon one fateful day, he's abandoned by his party and left to die at the hands of horrific monsters. But just before the last, fatal blow: PING! [Congratulations on becoming a Player.]

Zac was alone in the middle of the forest when the world changed. The whole planet was introduced to the multiverse by an unfeeling System — a universe where an endless number of races and civilizations fight for power and dominion. Stuck in the wilderness surrounded by deadly beasts, demons, and worse, Zac must find the means to survive and grow stronger. With only a hatchet for a weapon, he'll have to seek out his family before the world collapses — or die trying.

Everything changed when the System came. Cute bunnies and beautiful butterflies became savage killing machines. Then the Invaders arrived with a single goal: to claim ownership of this newly habitable planet. War has raged ever since. None of this mattered much to Derek — he mostly kept to himself, a weird guy with a cabin who occasionally came into town for a drink. After System Integration, that didn't change much; he only got stronger. Until one day he goes against his better judgment and decides to lend help on a mission that doesn't seem too hard. He should have stuck to being alone.

Zane was driving home when thousands of dungeons suddenly spawned across Earth, covering every inch of the planet. He wakes up to a wrecked car, a broken leg, and a goblin trying to kill him. While others cower and hide, Zane finds he genuinely enjoys this brutal new world. He unlocks a rare Berserker skill — the more damage he takes, the stronger he gets — and sets out to conquer everything the system apocalypse has to offer.

Jack Rust was a nearly-finished PhD biologist when an extraterrestrial AI called the System invaded Earth, flooding it with aliens, magic, and violence. Jack hoped to at least gain some magic. He didn't. Instead the System dropped a forest dungeon and a goblin directly in front of him. Armed only with his fists, Jack must fight his way back to civilization. To his own surprise, he discovers that violence suits him. In this battle-ridden new world, Jack finds the life he always dreamed of — and he intends to thrive.

The apocalypse is coming — but only a lucky or perhaps unlucky few know. Silas is inducted into the System, becoming the last in a long line of Earth's Forerunners. The rewards are great, but the danger is greater. Humanity is not alone in the universe: the fate of five worlds hangs on how their forerunners perform, and Earth faces the prospect of becoming a mining world stripped bare and left a barren husk in the cosmos. A system-enforced secret, a deadly challenge, and only a year to go before the countdown ends.

The apocalypse happened. Portals appeared. Zombies attacked. Everyone got pulled in. A divine system offered impossible powers — flight, super strength, magic — but only through progress, never all at once. Nathanial Kane had read the System's warnings. It said they had centuries; the demons arrived in ten years. He had been counted among the strongest. It had all been for nothing. Witnessing Earth's end and dying, Nathan cast the only unique spell he'd ever found: Rebirth.

The entire population of Earth is suddenly transported to a new planet along with the rest of the Milky Way Galaxy's intelligent inhabitants. A strange System speaks of abilities and levels without concern for anyone's opinions, thousands of monster-spawning dungeons appear without regard for the new inhabitants, and one thousand random individuals receive a forced invitation to compete in a livestreamed dungeon crawl — with the rank of Administrator as the prize. Wolf Adler must survive his initialization into a universal System, gaining powers over ice as he fights his way up dungeon floors while being watched by the entire universe.

Magic came to our world. Portals opened across the planet, releasing mana and dangerous monsters on the unsuspecting population. Wonder turned to horror. Society teetered on the brink of collapse until heroes rose to face the catastrophe — men and women who wielded mana to enter portal worlds, plundering their treasures and slaying beasts that bullets barely harmed. That was more than sixty years ago. Nestra was born without a core. In the new city of Threshold, baseline humans like her are being forced out of law enforcement. MaxSec is one of their last holdouts, and Nestra is one of its last members — but it cannot last. With Nestra addicted to mana and her job one of the only chances at getting close to portals, she is heading for disaster. Threshold is a city dominated by corporations and powerful users. It takes very little to become collateral damage — unless Nestra can finally figure out what's wrong with her.

Exactly two centuries ago, humanity was struck with its very first Demonic Assault. Demons poured through shattered skies, and on the brink of devastation, some humans were offered contracts granting them power as Guardians. Now, long after the nations of the world joined to form the Terran Republic, young Scarlet is just trying to find a university that will accept someone from a lower-tier city. But when she gets caught inside a Fracture during a Demonic Assault, she doesn't perish in the darkness. Instead, she awakens her dormant bloodline as a noble demon — a Blood Lycan. Turns out she had been a demon all along, and had been born for the apocalypse.

When Earth is seized by an ancient alien race wielding incredibly advanced tech and transported to a new location with twin suns, gamer geek Allistor finds himself fighting to survive in real life. The human race is declared a contaminant, and the new overlords decree that 90% of humanity will be exterminated. Creatures out of myth and legend are sent to do the killing. After seeing his family killed in the first week, Allistor leads a small group of survivors in their struggle to stay alive. Not satisfied with simple survival, he strives to make himself and his people stronger. The new RPG system that now governs the planet is something he can work with — and teach others to exploit. Thrust into a leadership position with vengeance in his heart, Allistor aims to establish a stronghold and take the fight to the monsters who seek to enslave his people.

In the year 2057, the world has become a corporate-run utopia for the super-rich and a hellhole for everyone else. Catherine 'Cat' Leblanc is an orphan about as far from super-rich as one can be. When the Incursion alarms start blaring and the sky starts raining hungry xenos, it's just another blemish on an already piss-poor afternoon. A cyberpunk magical-girl alien-invasion LitRPG.

Jake is working at the neighborhood market when the world ends — not through nuclear war or climate change, but through meddling gods from another world who shuffle Earth like a deck of cards. Monsters, dungeons, and magical items scatter across the globe, and everyone suddenly has access to a strange new card-based magic system. Jake finds himself alone in a completely new and dangerous world, hiding in his market with a bunch of curious elf-like strangers knocking on his door wanting to buy things. The gods may have stacked the deck against him, but Jake might have a few cards up his sleeve.

Jeb Trapper tried to kill himself. The gun jammed. Two months later, the veteran is participating in underground trials of ecstasy to treat his PTSD. Everything seemed to be going great—until the System was installed. Now he has to choose the difficulty of his tutorial. Just one problem: he's high as a kite, and nothing seems impossible.

When the System arrived to integrate Earth into the wider cosmos, Kira was in the middle of something. Now she faces an apocalypse she can't quite bring herself to mourn — life as she knew it wasn't something she wanted to continue. Conflicted about the right emotional response, Kira focuses on what she does know: the System mentioned mana, which means magic. Her affinity turns out to be Time, and time shenanigans, it seems, are just getting started.
