Update 02/22/22: Amazon Games has responded to player disappointment with Lost Ark server capacity.

In a statement sent to Eurogamer, he confirmed that the Europe Central server would not see an increase in capacity, but that the newly built Europe West server was easing congestion. Below, the statement in full:

“Lost Ark is more popular than we expected, expanding to 800,000 concurrent players in 17 minutes and 1.3 million in 24 hours. That’s the balance in bringing great games into new territories – new increases in demand can also bring, unbelievable challenges.” Expected Due to the complexity of the systems that have to work together, adding more capacity in a “Europe Central” data center is not an option. Instead, Smilegate and Amazon Games have partnered to deploy a new data center for European players in just five days – “Western Europe” – To respond to regional demand.For further clarification, the terms “Central European region” and “Western European region” are names for specific data centers, and do not refer to the geographical region of Central Europe.

“Since it opened four days ago, the new ‘Western European Region’ data center now houses just under 20 percent of our European players and is growing every day. We know the wait times are very frustrating for our players, and we’re encouraged to see that the new data center has succeeded. Already reducing maximum queues by 48 percent. We are monitoring this number closely while we are constantly working to improve wait times.”

This service has just been rolled out in Korea and is a weekly batch process that requires maintenance to run. It also does not support cross-region functionality. So, unfortunately, it is not a viable option at this point for the Western version – but we We will not rest until we have exhausted all options.”
