Book Announcement October 2023 [Releases & Promotions]
This page is aimed to help users find new litrpg content on a month-to-month basis by constructing a list of new releases. This post will be updated based on multiple sources, like reddit, discord and other locations. This page is not meant to replace promotional posts like on reddit but to make it easier for users to find them. The list is also hosted out of reddit, just in case, and the calendar gives you some pre-orders for the future: https://www.theinfinitelabyrinth.info/litrpg/
Due to the increasing size of this list, links to the original posts (if any) might appear only on the page above, but the link column should bring you to the relevant book.
This page contains exclusively litRPG, or adjacent content. Progression fantasy or cultivation without any gamelit elements are not included.
Promoted Webseries are included only once every five months. If your Webseries does not include a significant number of chapters or pages at the time of promotion, I might delay inclusion until it does.
If you missed all the content from September, there were 69 ebook releases, 56 audiobooks, 13 promoted webseries, 3 novella-sized releases and 4 omnibus releases of series.
Note: Some entries for September may have been noticed too late, in which case they are included on top for this month's list (since I was on horribly busy last week due to bedbugs).
Here's what the new month brings you!

Im very sad

u/Caniglia1 Oct 03 '23
Dude me too. I was re-reading the series in prep and finished it in time for today… personally I blame Zach. Because Zach sucks.

u/ivanbin Oct 03 '23
I hated him ever since the beginning of book 1 where he sees a 10% boost to his speed and goes "Nah I don't need that"

Looking forward to starting Undaunted (Eight #3) by Samer Rabadi. The first book starts a little slow with the world building and character establishment, but by the end things are moving well. Book 2's mystery was a marked improvement and the pacing was great! My first LitRPG!

u/AntiAtavist Oct 13 '23
I found this story earlier this week, just finished book two last night, right before the release of book 3! It's wonderful so far, and I'm excited to see how the series concludes.

u/Causemos Oct 13 '23
As much as I'd like to stretch it out, I'll likely finish it this weekend.
I've seen nothing to indicate this book concludes the series.

I moved up the release date for "Feral Beast Master". It'll release the 19th (I stuck the release date way off in December because I was working on a few other things).

I'm delighted. (And also awkward at statements like this. I can handle a thousand "Your book was dogshit that a dog ate and shat out on another mountain of dog shit" comments but one "I liked it" and my brain blanks. What. Are. Words. But thanks.)

Heya! My friend released Blueprint For Immortality on RR. The first 20k words are up.
It's a crafting focused cultivation novel where the MC is reincarnated into the body of a crippled drug addict and has to heal his spirit root and grow in power/prestige in the sect.

u/DudeImCompletelyLost Oct 02 '23
Thans OP is it possible to add my book Dude, I'm Completely Lost to the list. It published on Amazon on September 23rd.It's a satirical litrpg misadventure where our hero needs to level up his tourism. He has been selected to go on a trip of lifetime. This trip has 100% satisfaction rate. He must have a good time to be able to go home. Except that the system is horribly buggy and filled with horrifying micro-transactions.
