Kazeros Raid Act 2: Requiem of the Floating Nightmare
Face off against Brelshaza once more in Kazeros Raid Act 2: Requiem of the Floating Nightmare. This raid will require 8-players, and take place in a harsh, icy battleground, which provides the perfect backdrop for Brelshaza’s own chilling new powers. In Gate 1, the Valley of Piercing Screams, you’ll have to fight the intimidating Narok the Butcher, and in Gate 2, Phantom Apeiron, you’ll see the familiar Brelshaza with some new abilities. This raid will also introduce the Karma System, which will allow players to receive new ways to power up their characters. Normal Mode will be available at Item level 1670, and Hard Mode will be available at Item Level 1690. We will include the latest improvements to the raid applied in Korea, such as showing targeting effect during certain patterns in Gate 1. Along with Brelshaza, a host of new Tier 4 content will arrive, including the release of Tier 4 Bracelets, a new Guardian, Abidos Operation, a Chaos Gate for players over Item Level 1680, and the 2nd Unlock of the T4 Ebony Cube.Frontier System
When the frontier system is applied, raid difficulty (damage and HP) will decrease for raid bosses as stage of the frontier progresses. The stages progress automatically as time goes on. With the frontier system, parties clearing cutting-edge content can enjoy a similar difficulty to Korea when the raid releases, and others can enjoy an easier version as time passes; making the raid more approachable for more casual players while also lessening the reclear difficulty.Third Anniversary Celebration
Lost Ark Anniversary celebrations will kick off a little bit early this year, coming in with our update at the end of January. This will allow us to get celebrating sooner, and pave the way for an exciting release in February. Celebrate Lost Ark’s Anniversary in a new anniversary event, the “Festa of Arkesia” on a special Anniversary island. Here you’ll get to participate in exclusive quests, receive rewards, and also see some familiar faces.February 2025

Wild Soul Advanced Class
The next Advanced Class is a Yoz Specialist class— a versatile character that can transform into animals or use their scroll to fight with spirit beast spells while in human form. The class will invoke a blend of energy that feels both animalistic and mystical in nature. For example, the class can transform into forms like a bear, or into the form of a Kumiho, a nine-tailed fox. The Yoz tribe specializes in harnessing the power of illusions, and the Wild Soul can also summon spirits, such as birds or foxes, to fight alongside them.Progression Events
The Wild Soul Advanced Class will be accompanied by progression events. More details will be provided headed toward the release of the new class.March 2025
