After recently celebrating its second anniversary, Lost Ark Server Merges has been announced by Amazon Games and Smilegate RPG, accompanied by comprehensive details outlining all subsequent changes. These merges are expected to occur in two waves, with some servers in the first wave being combined with others in the next one.
The developers are also striving to optimize the Lost Ark Server Merges to reduce downtime, but given the complexity of the process, it will require additional time. For players with characters on only one server, the merging process is expected to be straightforward. However, those with characters on two mergeable servers may experience significant changes.
This article will provide details about the Lost Ark Server Merges and what players can expect from the upcoming changes.
