If there's one thing Lost Ark is good at, it's consistency. The Korean MMORPG that was released in the west three years ago has seen consistent patches every single month, and Amazon has done an exceptional job as of late with their communication regarding changes and additions.
With the start of every season, Amazon gets ahead of things and announces what they have plans for the next three months, giving players a sneak peek at the exciting changes and additions they can expect. For summer 2025, Amazon waited until July 1 to reveal their big plans.
July
A month of quality of life improvements
If there's one month out of the three that looks like it's going to spin heads, it's July. The recently announced Paradise progression system will be making its debut this month, something that we expected to get much closer to the end of the year or even into 2026. This will have three stages: Elysian, Crucible and Hell. The first is a wave-based system where you can get Paradise-exclusive gear to upgrade, Crucible is a 1v1 boss/trial and Hell is a 100-floor dungeon.
On top of Paradise, an Aegir Solo Mode...
