With Path of Exile and Diablo 4 being the two giants in the action RPG scene, Last Epoch is going to be the latest challenger to try and make waves in this beloved genre. The game is scheduled to release on February 21st, and it has quite a few innovations when it comes to the staples of the genre. Not only does the game have a deterministic crafting system that does not require a Ph.D. to understand, but the new Auction House system might finally be the answer for an issue that has been a part of every ARPG in the last 20 years.

The game also shares a ton of systems which are pretty much identical to some classics, such as Diablo 2. With other games in this genre having different types of penalties for dying, such as losing experience or gold, let's take a look at how this system works in Last Epoch.

Is There a Death Penalty in Last Epoch?

You will not lose any experience or gold when your character dies in Last Epoch. The only penalties for dying are related to the different endgame systems, which are the Monoliths, Dungeons, and the Arena. Dying during these activities is going to prevent you from earning the rewards that are tied to completing them. Apart from that, you should not worry about losing any character progression, as the game is pretty lenient and will not punish you for dying.

The game does have a hardcore system, which is similar to other games in the genre, where you will only have one life for your character, and upon dying, they will be moved to a different league.
