The Lantern of the Laughless Saint Player Count
What these numbers mean
These are concurrent players on Steam — how many people had the game open at the same moment, not how many people own it. The game launched in early access on 17 August 2026, so its all-time peak of 1,711 is a launch-week figure rather than a settled population.
A more useful signal for a game this young is the review count. Steam has recorded 899 reviews at a Very Positive rating, which tells you considerably more people have played it than are logged in at any one moment.
Is it dead?
No, and the concurrent count is the wrong number to judge it by. This is a single-player and co-op RPG with no matchmaking, no servers and no live-service component — you never need other people online to play it. See co-op and multiplayer for how sessions actually work.
The developers shipped seven builds in the first five days, including a new playable race. For the state of the game itself rather than its population, read our review.
Why we do not show a daily chart
We publish the four figures above because we can check them directly. We do not publish a day-by-day history graph, because we do not have a verified daily series for this game and inventing plausible-looking data points would defeat the purpose of the page. For historical charting, third-party Steam trackers cover it.
