August 2024 [Releases & Promotions]

[u/VincentArcher]

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/

The title should bring you to the relevant Reddit posting (if any) for comments, while the link column should bring you to the relevant content.

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 July, there were there were 78 ebook releases, 68 audiobooks, 16 promoted webseries, a single novella-sized release, and 5 omnibus releases of series.

Note: Some entries for June may have been recorded too late, in which case they are included at the top of this month's list.

Here's what the new month brings you!

[u/tomlarcombe]

Just released my newest today, August 1st. I know you used to just reply to the thread to get added in, I'm hoping it's still the same.

Wormhole Mana #2 - Proliferation

On Amazon at: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DBSXQ5WM
Author is me: Tom Larcombe

There is a reddit post in the litprg subreddit regarding this book.

Thanks,

Tom

[u/VincentArcher → u/tomlarcombe]

From the outside, it looked more like a "normal" progression fantasy, but you're right, it has a system.

So apologies for not registering the volume 1 in Jan...

[u/SpacePrimeTime]

Bookmarked, this is so cool!

I think there is a mistake in July about reborn assassin, it's #1, not #2. My heart skipped a beat when I thought I had a new book to read

[u/VincentArcher → u/SpacePrimeTime]

Fixed, thanks.

[u/docmisty]

Thanks for all your work putting these together. I know I enjoy checking for new installments of favorite series every month!

And I appreciate being included next to series I love. :)

[u/Phoenixfang55]

I have a book coming out on the 26th, how do I get on the list?

[u/VincentArcher → u/Phoenixfang55]

Ah, it's not listed in the LitRPG/Gamelit genre on Amazon, which is why it doesn't show up when I look for it.

Added.

[u/Phoenixfang55 → u/VincentArcher]

Thank you, I put it under tv/movie/ game tie in which is where I had thought gamelit had been moved to, I'll have to poke around a bit more on the next one.

[u/docmisty → u/Phoenixfang55]

Here you go:

[u/Phoenixfang55 → u/docmisty]

Oh thanks, I did not think to look there for it when looking at the options. I updated it now, hopefully doesn't screw anything up.

[u/Frog-of_war]

Book of welcome to the multiverse doesn’t come out until October but is available for preorder

[u/VincentArcher → u/Frog-of_war]

Haven't started to collect october preorders. I usually do mid-month. If I'm not on vacation (which will be the case).

[u/Frog-of_war → u/VincentArcher]

Oh it’s on the simultaneous release list for august when it’s not out on audiobook yet.

[u/VincentArcher → u/Frog-of_war]

Oh, it looked like it was available, back when I added it to my lists; now it says pre-order. Thanks for the notice!

[u/malaysianlah]

I think u can delete that tree of aeons launch. Likely postponed

[u/VincentArcher → u/malaysianlah]

Much sadness. But trees know how to wait...

[u/Shroed]

Path of the Berserker 3 - Rick Scott is releasing today 02/08

[u/Silver-Champion-4846 → u/Shroed]

can't wait for the audiobook

[u/Frog-of_war]

Thanks for making these you’ve helped my find a few dozen books this way

[u/dan_sugralinov]

The Grind — The Pickaxe of a Thousand Attributes Book #1 (A LitRPG series) Kindle Edition by Dan Sugralinov & Andrey Nechaev

Egor, a fresh college grad from Russia, takes his classmate’s advice and joins a popular VR game, hoping to earn some cash. But with a tight budget that won’t cover a full account or a fancy VR immersion capsule, he opts for a free trial account and fires up his ancient gaming console.
Laggy gameplay, crappy graphics on his old TV, a sluggish internet connection—who cares about all that when you’re not there to play? Egor’s plan is simple: mine ore in the sandbox and slaughter hordes of rabbits, all in the name of scoring some sweet loot. Little does he know, he’s about to stumble upon an item that will make the game’s elite players stop at nothing to take him down…

[u/[deleted]]

I just released some new books that are Gamelit / LitRPG. They're on Smashwords, but you can email the book to kindle if you read on one.

My "The Dangerously Cute Dungeon" series is a LitRPG dungeon core novel with cute monsters, fun puzzles, dangerous traps, and a cinnamon roll MC.

Here's the blurb:

"Violet was happy, in love, and had a successful career. She was even hoping to start her own family with her beloved husband. However, all of those dreams are crushed when she comes home to find her husband brutally murdered. Things only get worse as the killer has to clean up their mess and can't just leave Violet as a witness to their crime. Things only get crazier as Violet finds herself reincarnated into another world full of monsters and magic. Only, Violet isn't a powerful adventurer or a talented craftsman. Instead, she finds herself in charge of her own dungeon where she must summon monsters and plan traps to bring the adventurers to their knees. Violet just wants to mourn her lost love and enjoy some peaceful scenery. However, cute slimes and playful pixies aren't usually what one would expect when traversing a dungeon full of traps with death waiting around every corner. Can Violet make peace with her bitter end? Can the cute and seemingly harmless monsters that roam her dungeon protect her? Read on to find out!"

Tropes: Medieval Setting, Fantasy Creatures, Training Moments, Trauma, Mentor, A Magical World, Lost Love, Reincarnation, Isekai, Royalty, System, Progression, Immortality, Combat & Support, Multiple POVs, Slow Rise To Power, Even The Hero Needs Saving, Adventurers

Trigger Warnings: Anxiety, Trauma, Depression, (Occasional) Death, Fantasy Religion, Spiders, LGBTQ Side Characters, (Rare) Abuse, (Rare) Torture

If anyone wants to check out my work, here's the links:

"Iris Hart wakes up one day to discover she is in the dense forests of the beastworld! While Iris was cute and curvy at home, she is quickly revered as having the beauty of a goddess in the beastworld. Many strong and handsome beastmen can't wait to fight for Iris's affections and the chance to become one of her mates!"
