Lost Ark Preps Two Major Updates For December Including A New Endgame Continent

Amazon Game Studios is going all out this holiday season as it prepares to roll out not one, but two major updates for Lost Ark in December. The first of the pair drops on December 13th and will open the doors to the new endgame continent of Voldis and the Sage City of Kalinar.

“Voldis is home to the Sages, who delve into many secrets regarding alchemy, the body, and the mind,” teased Amazon. “They are well-respected for their vast knowledge and powers, and with the Chaos Guardians returning, their aid will be more than helpful in the upcoming war.”

The continent houses the famed City of Sages, Kalinar, a bustling city that has become a hub of activity in the region. In its midst, is the soaring Sage’s Tower where the exiled sages continue to research and practice alchemy.

“The city is always bustling with tourists seeking advice from the renowned sages,” the studio said. “[It] has a fantastic view and is full of cute Homunculi dashing to-and-fro as they run the citizens’ errands.”

Update number two is set to arrive a week later on December 20th and will introduce more endgame content in the form of the Ivory Tower abyssal dungeon and the new gear-enhancing Elixir System.

“Elixirs are a new system which will drastically increase player’s combat abilities by imbuing their gear with new, powerful effects,” Amazon explained. “Epic elixirs will be obtainable through the Normal mode of the Ivory Tower Abyssal Dungeon, while Legendary Elixirs can be earned via Hard mode. Once obtained, Elixirs need to be refined and imbued onto a player’s gear.”

Players can also look forward to the highly awaited class-buffing balance updates in January.
