0s Welcome to Eye on Arkesia, where we'll take a look ahead at all things Lost Ark.
4s Coming your way.
6s first, let's take a quick minute to go over the big news you may have recently heard and then we'll dive into what's going to be happening in the month of June.
13s LOAON just happened and Smilegate RPG showed off some super exciting plans for the future of Lost Ark, including the announcement of tier four.
21s We know our players are excited to learn about when they can expect this coming content in the West, and we're working on a follow up announcement that will give you some of these details and key timings for some of these bigger systems.
32s Our teams are working to lock down this information as quickly as possible, so we can share it with all of you later this month.
37s So we ask for a little bit of patience as we ensure everything is finalized.
42s That aside, we have confirmed that the summer celebration gift will be delivered to players in the West on June 19th.
48s This gift will contain new goodies like a new Mokoko skin, a mount, pheons, Elixir supplies and more.
54s If you want the full details of what will be in the gift, head on over to our website and check out the recent LOAON Announcement article.
61s The South America region was merged into North America East on June 5th.
65s While these merges have completed, if you're logging into the game for the first time since then and you're having trouble determining exactly how things shook out after the merge, be sure to visit our website at playlostark.com and review the June 2024 Region Merge Policy article that was posted on May 16th.
82s For players on North America East and formerly South America, you'll want to claim your merge compensation package from the in-game shop.
90s It'll be free there, and for players on all servers, you should have received a special celebration gift in your product inventory, so be sure to check that out.
98s Next up, the June update will launch on June 19th.
102s This update is going to be our biggest before we coast in the rest of summer, so let's take a quick look at a couple of the things you'll be expecting for later this month.
111s First and foremost, players will be heading to the harsh, barren lands of South Kurzan, where the body of Kazeros has been sealed away.
118s This land is seeping with evil energy and you'll come face to face with former Covetous Legion commander Echidna.
126s Echidna will be your first Kazeros raid.
129s These are a new set of in-game raids that players will have to get through to eventually face off against Kazeros himself.
135s This eight player raid will consist of two gates and introduce the new Allied Forces skills, which summon NPCs to aid you in combat.
143s Players will be able to enter a normal mode at Item level 1620 and Hardmode at Item level 1630.
149s After you clear gate one of Echidna, you'll also unlock access to Advanced Honing.
154s This new system utilizes a process called tempering, which, alongside traditional honing, will allow you to make progress in your item levels.
162s Be sure to look for a full breakdown of that closer to the update.
165s And alongside a few other miscellaneous updates you'll see, we're also excited to announce that the June update will include the full class balance patch that recently released in Korea, so get ready for that.
177s And aside from the update itself, remember that the LOAON will also be delivered to players on the day of the update.
183s So be on the lookout for some really good items including legendary elixir supplies, pehons, a skin, a mount, and more gracing your product inventory very soon.
193s As most players know, the emote contest has wrapped up, but we have some good news surrounding that.
198s These new emotes will be released much earlier than we originally anticipated, and will be coming in this month's June update.
204s That means these five emotes will soon be available very, very soon in our version of Lost Ark, to be usable for free by all players.
212s We're super excited to see these in-game, and we'd like to thank the artists who created them and everyone who voted on them.
218s Obviously, we love seeing the community create new art, even more so when we get to display it in the game.
223s So next up, we're going to be holding an Echidna loading screen contest for our players who want to create fan art of the new Kazeros raid boss.
231s This is going to provide an opportunity for three pieces of art to be featured in the game as limited time loading screens, so be sure to check out playlostark.com or our Discord for full details on that very soon.
243s We know things have been packed in terms of releases the last few months, and we've heard plenty of player feedback around that cadence, so the pace of releases is going to wind down a little bit in July and August.
255s Don't worry, we're still going to have new content coming out, but we know there are plenty of new endgame systems, contents, and things for you to catch up with and enjoy.
263s So we're giving it all a little bit of a moment to breathe, especially with everything that was just announced at LOA ON.
269s It's close to roadmap time again too, so we are working on another update for all of you that will be able to share soon, and we'll let you know when that's coming up and getting a little bit closer.
279s Thanks for joining me this month, and I hope that gave you a little bit of an insightful look at what's ahead.
283s See you in Arkesia.
