Laplace：拉普拉斯的神子

Laplace: 拉普拉斯的神子 is a free-to-play MMORPG that launched on Steam on October 2, 2018. The game is structured as a live service: it features a rotating in-game cash shop with premium currency (拉斯水晶), gacha-style loot boxes, seasonal cosmetic drops, limited-time sales, and a scheduled weekly maintenance window (every Thursday 13:00–16:00 UTC+8). These are defining characteristics of a game designed to operate and generate revenue indefinitely rather than reach a "complete" state. The developer (X-Legend Entertainment) maintained a consistent cadence of weekly patch notes from launch through at least December 12, 2019 — the date of the last available developer communication. Posts show regular content additions including new dungeon difficulties, equipment tiers (Rank 8 and Rank 9 systems), class rebalancing, guardian companion expansions, and shop rotations. The 37 news posts scanned include 6 major content updates and 15 feature patches, reflecting sustained live service operations during the tracked period. The store description references the weekly maintenance schedule as an ongoing operational detail, further confirming the game is intended to remain live. No developer statement has indicated a shutdown, end of service, or conclusion of content development.
