Heroes of Arkesia,Lost Ark team members Roxx, Matt, and Henry are back with the next installment of the Lost Ark roadmap, covering what’s in store for July, August, and September, along with a sneak peek at some of the major updates arriving before the end of 2025. As always, since Lost Ark is a live-service game, plans may shift, but we’re excited to reveal what’s ahead—let’s dive into the upcoming content and systems arriving in the second half of the year. Watch the Roadmap video update for the full discussion and deep dive, or find an express summary below the video.JulyNew Progression System: ParadiseLaunching late July, Paradise is a new seasonal system designed specifically for the global version of Lost Ark to help speed up progression and give players new experimental, solo content. Paradise helps players earn valuable rewards through three interconnected activities:ElysianFight waves of monsters to collect Legacy of Paradise gear—a new set of upgradeable equipment (e.g. belt, cloak) that only applies within Paradise. Gear is tiered and can be upgraded through:Restoration – which boosts base statsResonance – adds bonus effects once restoration thresholds are metHigher Paradise levels will unlock throughout the season, and all gear resets between seasons.CrucibleTake on bosses in a 1v1 battle with nearly all power coming from your Legacy of Paradise gear—making this content accessible for all classes, including supports. Since the recording of the roadmap video, we made the decision to simplify the name from “God’s Testimony” to Crucible, better matching the other one word activity names.Includes valuable first-time clear rewards, along with weekly class-based leaderboards reward players with Hell Keys. Every player who participates will receive some keys, with players who place higher receiving higher grade and more keys.Earn and equip the Orb, a special gear piece that carries power outside of Paradise and scales based on your peak seasonal progression.HellUse your Hell Keys to descend through a 100-floor dungeon, earning better rewards the deeper you go.Clearing floors will be easy, like a chaos dungeon. It’s more about trying to hit some lucky effects and descend as far as possible.Loot includes gold, upgrade materials, Paradise gear, and the rewards are selectable at the end to give players a choice of what they need most between the available options.Solo Mode & Mokoko BootcampSolo Aegir joins the roster with an updated Tier 4 reward shopSolo Raid difficulty adjusted to be easier for new playersMokoko Bootcamp returns with:Aegir (Act 1) Hard ModeBrelshaza (Act 2) Normal ModeItem level cap set at 1689 to ensure players can naturally progress without losing their statusQuality of Life & System UpdatesSkin Book System: Manage, preview, and craft all skins in a new streamlined interface.Una’s Task Overhaul: Dailies transition to weekly rewards after reputation completion, reducing daily grindBalance Patch: Korean May & June class updates includedTripod & Epic Engraving Removal to simplify character systemsBound Gem Improvements: Swap damage/CD types more freelyUI Updates:Improved character profileAccessory highlighting by refinement levelNew Party Finder LoungeAugustNew Advanced Class: ValkyrieThe long-awaited female Paladin, named Valkyrie, arrives in August!Choose between:Support Build: Protect allies with divine shieldsDPS Build: Summon holy swords to smite enemiesReleased alongside several progression events and a legendary class giftPrestige Shop LaunchEarn Prestige Points equal to 10% of Royal Crystals spent in the in-game shopRedeem for cosmetics like exclusive skins, MVP backgrounds, and moreRetroactive tracking included—no lost points!SeptemberLimited-Time Raid Event: Assault – RimeriaThe frozen continent of Rimeria faces a new threat: Abyssal Beasts have emerged, and it’s up to you to stop them.
