Overall, Lost Ark has surpassed both DOTA 2, CS: GO and is only behind PUBG in terms of the largest number of CCUs in history (PUBG reached 3.2 million CCUs in January 2018).

In the past 24 hours, Lost Ark has risen to the number 1 position on Steam in terms of players
Lost Ark’s strong rise shows that the MMORPG series has never been forgotten. Although in the past few years, this series has been overwhelmed by new trends like MOBA or Battle Royale, but it still holds an important place in the minds of fans. As long as a good product launches, the MMORPG will rise to regain its position. And Lost Ark did just that.
The success of Lost Ark marks the impressive return of an MMORPG. This can be considered as the perfect momentum for incubating products like Diablo IV.
It is known that Lost Ark is an action role-playing game that was first released in 2019 in the Korean market. After that, the game launched the version in the Russian market and finally the international market (current version on Steam). Lost Ark international version is published by Amazon Game Studios and is 100% free.
Lost Ark has since been introduced to everyone with beautiful graphics developed on the Unreal Engine 3 technology platform and especially an impressive action style quite similar to the legendary Diablo game series.
The world of Lost Ark is being invaded by legions of demons. Therefore, there will be a number of portals called Chaos Gate, which randomly appear in the open world and summon hordes of demons from other worlds. Players near the Chaos Gate will receive a warning before these demons appear so they can band together and defeat them.
