Lost Ark is an online action RPG in the free-to-play model, similar in general to other popular games of the genre, such as Torchlight. The game was created by the large Korean studio Tripod and was originally prepared for the Asian market, but over time it was decided to make it also available in the West in an English-language version.

Plot

The game featured a full-fledged campaign with extensive missions, interactive dialogues with NPCs and cutscenes. The story is set in an epic fantasy world. Centuries ago it was protected from the forces of evil thanks to the eponymous magical artifact - the Ark. Centuries after those events, the Ark became only the subject of stories and legends, and people stopped believing in its existence. The players' goal in the campaign is to find it before Kazeroth - the leader of the demonic legions, who wants to use it to take over the world.

TheGamer: 5 / 5 by Harry Alston

Overall, Lost Ark feels like a reward after so many hashed-out and rocky launches of new games. You know what you’re getting with Lost Ark, it’s an experience that has already been through the tests and tribulations of its first two years of content. Its story won’t speak to everyone, but the endgame experience is worth a few cutscenes here and there. Lost Ark is one of the most polished titles I’ve played for some time, especially an MMO. The game is free and will be hyped-up thanks to Amazon and Twitch. I can’t think of a reason why you shouldn’t try it.

GamesBeat: 4 / 5 by Jason McMaster

Lost Ark, at the end of the day, is a very good ARPG with MMO mechanics. The way the game funnels you through the initial content is like an amusement park ride with side quests. After that ride, though, you get dumped out at this giant, unexpected playground full of stuff to do. If sailing around the map, hunting giant monsters, and chagrades sounds like a good time, then this might be the game for you.

MMORPG.com: 7 / 10 by Nick Shively

While it’s clear that Lost Ark isn’t necessarily an ARPG, but rather a traditional Korean MMORPG with an isometric view, Smilegate is very clearly looking to cater to a specific audience. Lost Ark finds itself focused on a never-ending gear treill, and it does an extremely good job at it. Unfortunately, casual players who want to explore an interesting world or want diverse or more dynamic content will likely be let down. And while Lost Ark is fun, the arduous leveling process and repetitive endgame will likely lead to polarizing opinions about it, with most players either loving or hating their experience in the end.
