The first major feature update for the Western version of Raiders of the Lost Ark will be released later this month, and the developers have just disclosed the first details about what to expect. In March, we’ll get a new storey chapter and a new tier of endgame content dubbed Abyss Raids, but today’s update doesn’t feature the roadmap that the developers teased last week.
Instead, the devs say that “in the near future we’ll share a roadmap that covers the top additions coming to Arkesia over the next few months”. That roadmap is likely to include new classes – the Korean version of Lost Ark already has several more than the worldwide release – so it’s going to be one to watch.
For now, the March content update will include a new story episode letting you “learn more about the Sidereals and search for the legendary Kadan, the first Guardian slayer, in your journey to find the final Ark”. You’ll need to have completed Feiton and reach item level 1100 to get there.
We’re getting a big new end-game activity with Abyss Raids, too, starting with Argos. Like the existing raids, you’ll go in as a team of eight in order to take down a big Guardian within a time limit and with a limited number of revives – but these will be much more difficult. You’ll battle through three phases, each of which leave behind a reward you can collect once per week.
