Amazon Games had planned to launch its free-to-play action RPG Lost Ark at 5pm today. Despite a paid ‘head start’ period, it was only minutes before the official launch that a holdup was announced. The game is now facing “deployment problems,” which the developer hopes to resolve within the next couple of hours. But how long will Lost Ark take to launch? Let’s take a look at the key factors influencing its release.

Server congestion
The highly anticipated Amazon Game Studio MMORPG Lost Ark will be offline today for scheduled maintenance. The game, which was previously released in the Eastern Hemisphere, is making its way to the west for a global release. However, its release has come with a few issues, namely server congestion. The makers of the game are moving quickly to resolve the issues and schedule maintenance for the game’s return.
Several players have been disappointed about queue times after the game went live, and the developers have responded to the issue. They are adding 15 more servers to the game. The developers are adding seven servers in the North America region, six servers in Europe, and two in South America. These new servers will help relieve the server congestion. This news is great news for players, but it is not enough to make up for the initial server congestion.
Founder’s Packs
Purchasing a Founder’s Pack in Lost Ark is an excellent way to get exclusive rewards for playing the game. These packs are available in four price ranges and offer players something for every budget. There are some important details to consider before you purchase one. However, there are no guarantees about the exact rewards. For instance, if you want to be able to participate in the Technical Closed Beta, you’ll need to purchase a Founder’s Pack.
The first Founder’s Pack is the Bronze, which gives you a head start on the game. This pack contains 1,000 Royal Crystals, which are the paid currency in the game. It also comes with a Silver Supply Crate. This crate contains Silver, Potions, and other useful items. You can use Royal Crystals to purchase anything from the Cash Shop, although most players save these for cosmetics. The Platinum Founder’s Pack is also a good investment for those who have a hardcore collecting streak.
MMORPG’s combat
The top-down 2.5D fantasy massively multiplayer online action role-playing game, Lost Ark, has just been released in the South Korean region. Developed by Smilegate RPG and Tripod Studio, the game was released in the region on December 4, 2019.
While the combat isn’t particularly high-end, it’s a worthy runner-up. It offers an impressive mix of fantasy and MMO tropes in an MMORPG. In addition to flashy action, it has power fantasies and the opportunity to stomp dozens of enemies. That’s why, despite its flaws, Combat in Lost Ark combines several of the best elements of its genre into a unique experience.
One of the biggest problems with the game, however, is the server queues. Many players have complained about queue times. The Oceanic servers, for example, force all players from Australia onto one server, resulting in long wait times. EU servers are much less populated, but you should still expect queue times to be four to six hours. However, these aren’t the only problems. As long as you’re patient, Lost Ark will keep you entertained for a while.
Availability on Amazon
The latest MMORPG from Smilegate has been localized by Amazon’s gaming arm. It was released in North America and Europe on February 11 and peaked as the second-most-played Steam title in PC marketplace history. Its rapid growth allowed it to achieve a player base of 1.3 million within 24 hours. Availability of Lost Ark on Amazon has been a hot topic in gaming forums. Here’s a closer look at the game’s release.
Originally launched in South Korea, Lost Ark is the next game published by Smilegate. A Diablo-like action-RPG, Lost Ark is being billed as a free-to-play title. While the game has previously been released in Japan, Korea, and Russia, Amazon Games has picked it up to be released on PC in North America and Europe. The game features English-language spoken and written dialogue, and the game is also available in Spanish, French, and Korean. The game has been a hit in other regions, and a beta version is set to be released this summer.
