Not sure if this is sarcastic or not...

EVE is from 2003. DotA is too. Magic Online was from 2002. RTS goes well back into the 90s, simulators back to the 70s, etc etc. I'll give you Battle Royale and I don't even know what Rocket League is but most of these are not recent at all.

Yeah, not all are from, but most are from after 2000.

As the person said: the only new "type" of game they know of released the last years was Minecraft, and lists games from "early 3D" era, I assume the person is not aware of all the new genres of games created the last 20 years. The only goal with my post was to list some genres that might be unknown (some of which has been around for a long time). I hope someone reads the list and finds something new that they might like, you should try out Rocket League if you are remotely interested in games. Rocket League is an insanely hard (high skill cieling) physics based football-ish kind of game.

Simulators today are a totally different breed of games, no one that plays them now would consider them even close to what was possible to achieve 20 years ago, thats why I included them.

Edit: I meant to write Planetary Annihilation, not Total Annihilation in my original post. Which is a quite unique RTS.

Rocket League is a football game which you play with cars. Depending on the mode, 1-4 players play against each other to score goals in a specific time limit. It's also not new though, Battle-Cars came before that.

I think you mean SARPBC (Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars), released in 2008.

Practically the same game, and the only ones in the genre.

Battle Cars was a racing game akin to Mario Kart i believe.
