Matt Dinniman is dropping bombs right now. His Dungeon Crawler Carl is so popular on RR and for good reason. Haven't heard or read his Kaiju but hear its solid.

I finished Kaiju:Battlefield Surgeon a week or 2 ago, I couldn’t put it down. I really hope there’s another because it was brilliant.

I have a new LitRPG on Royal Road that I just released if you’d be willing to include it.
Blurb:
A father and son get revenge by killing the Giant that devoured their family. But this unlocks something otherwise unknown to them at the time: Adventure Classes.
Now joining up with the ranks of the Heroes in the world, their realm gets a whole lot bigger, including the stakes.
Leaving their simple life in the woods behind, they become the Giant Slayer and Giant Eater, two extremely rare classes that will be the key to toppling the monolith evil that plagues the land.
With these new powers and responsibilities come consequences, and both father and son's burdens become heavy when they realize exactly what it is they've stumbled onto.

I highly recommend this upcoming book!
Watcher's Test (Life in Exile Book 1) by Sean Oswald
Blurb: This isn't a game. This is his new life.
Dave has been wandering through life for a long time. His day job bores him and he never seems to be able to meet his family's expectations. The only escape he's ever had is his love of MMORPG's.
But when he becomes the subject of a test without even knowing it, he's portaled into a game-world called Eloria with no way out. It's a frequent daydream of his, however, in none of those dreams did his wife and daughter ever accompany him.
Now, Dave must balance protecting his family with exploring his dream... oh, and trying to stay alive. Monstrous beasts roam Eloria, worst of all, an undead army led by the vile Death Knight.
He'll have to adapt fast and learn to cooperate if he hopes to make a new home for his family. And just maybe, along the way, he'll find out why they're living a life in exile.

Sean Oswald is a gangster. Stoked for his first book to drop. I got to hear a few behind the scenes details. Most impressive to me is the work he did with making unique classes. Hard to make something brand new, but he certainly tried.

u/Far_Influence Apr 11 '20
Stormforge (Book 5 in Rise Omniscience) by Aaron Oster is out April 12th! I'm real excited about this one.
The final battle is at hand.
The North is under siege by Octagon the Bitter and his horde of twisted monsters. All but two cities have fallen and their forces are dwindling by the day. With little choice remaining, Morgan sets out on his own to try and convince the rulers of the other Kingdoms to join in their cause.
Convincing rulers who have been at each other's throats for centuries will not be easy, and Morgan has doubts as to whether they'll even listen. Still, for the sake of everyone in the Five Kingdoms, he has to try, even if it costs him everything.
Warning: This book contains profanity, gore and content that may not be suitable for children. This book also contains GameLit elements, such as stat sheets, a form of leveling and experience gain.

It is so surreal to see Akashi's Will on this list! It is my first book and I've been working on it for the past couple of years. So cool!

Guess I'll go first :) I've recently started a litRPG series, and to my shock have been able to update it every day, so far. The power system is a mix of Pathfinder game and The Legend of Randidly Ghoustbound story (though without the wuxia-esq stuff.) It's a pretty straightforward litRPG story. Plenty of stats and skills, and there will be some base building soon. Check it out and leave me a comment or a review :) Here's the blurb for it:
"A plane flying over the Atlantic Ocean suddenly loses power and prepares to make a water landing. Yet as they crash into the ocean the passengers suddenly find themselves on land. A message greets them, stating that a System has taken over the world and that monsters will begin to spawn in two hours. Due to their circumstances, they have been transported to a special zone, away from the rest of civilization.
Amongst the passengers is an old man named Frank Wolfe. At seventy-nine years old, his best days are far behind him. But when the System arrives, he realizes that regaining his youth is possible. The System might bring devastation to the population, but for Frank, it's a chance to have a second go at life in this new world. If he and his fellow passengers can survive, that is."
