The '''RPG Rapture''' is a modern-day setting where the world has been through an event where supernatural forces (such as monsters from fantasy) bring chaos throughout Earth. This massive phenomenon renders society where nothing can counter the event through conventional means.
This event may cause dungeons to appear (especially when monsters are involved) that can be conquered by unique individuals. These people with powers counter these changes, thus giving way to stability. They are often connected to [[RPG Mechanics Verse|a system that functions like RPGs that can grant them these abilities]] and may be related to the apocalypse. By defeating them, these people bring temporary peace, including treasures, equipment, and mystical resources. Magic always plays a part as being either the cause or another tool for people to use.

* ''[[System Apocalypse]]'' causes various creatures such as monsters and aliens, to appear on Earth, including no modern technology, but the System helps by acting like an RPG for people. It also provides other services such as functions for buildings and providing necessities if preconditions are met.
* In ''[[The S-Classes that I Raised]]'', dungeons have appeared worldwide where monsters spill out, leading to catastrophe for the population. Awakened are people who simultaneously emerge that use supernatural abilities, level up, and check their status through interfaces.
* The ''[[New World]]'' series by James Khan, consisting of ''[[World Enough, and Time]]'' (1980), ''[[Time's Dark Laughter]]'' (1982) and ''[[Timefall]]'' (1987), is set in a world where magic came back and technology abruptly stopped working, and the creatures of myth reappeared.
* ''[[The Earth is Online]]'': Myriads of black towers begin to float above cities, ominously but harmlessly. Then one day, a voice announces, “Ding dong! November 15th, 2017. The earth is online.” Next thing people know, the towers are issuing deadly survival games, and humans are suddenly gaining unusual powers.
