Lost Ark Roadmap For June And July 2022
The latest Lost Ark Roadmap provides a look into the content coming in the June and July updates for 2022. Lost Ark has established a smooth monthly update process since it launched in the West back on February 11, providing new classes, dungeons, raids, and a new continent to explore. The June and July updates seem like they'll continue that trend, and the Lost Ark Roadmap confirms a consistent class release schedule coming up, so read on for a full breakdown of everything we've learned.
- It's likely a new Lost Ark Pass will drop sometime in the next couple of updates, so check out what you might miss before it goes.
Lost Ark Roadmap: General Updates
Click to enlargeThe first big announcement in the June and July roadmap is that there will be a more consistent release schedule for classes during the rest of 2022. One new advanced class will be dropped every two months, meaning we should get at least three this year. Smilegate also clarified that the first 21 advanced classes currently in the Korean version will be added before new or future classes will, meaning the west will remain behind Korean for some time.
The next major section clarified that the roadmap release doesn't contain a list of every change, so you will need to wait for the patch notes themselves, or watch the Lost Ark social channels leading up to their release. New islands, store updates, events, and bug fixes will be added, though we don't know in what form. They also revealed they're working on gifting every player a Punika Powerpass and are planning another Lost Ark Super Express event, though which update this will arrive in is unconfirmed.
- We also have a rundown of everything we know about the Lost Ark Aeromancer class, which is set to come to Korea in the future.
Lost Ark June Roadmap
Click to enlargeThe Lost Ark roadmap details some big changes coming in the June update, which is set to drop later in the month. A brand-new Legion Raid where you can fight against Commander Vykas in both normal and hard difficulties will be released. This is a very late-game activity, as players will need to be item level 1430 for normal, and 1460 for hard.
Another Guardian Raid will also be released, tasking you to defeat frost predator Kungelanium. This is set to be the hardest raid so far, and will sit at the top of level 6 Guardians. You will need to reach item level 1460 to take part.
If you've enjoyed the spire dungeons, then you can also look forward to the Lost Ark Thronespire, which is set to feature another 50 levels of progressively harder combat scenarios. Smilegate also announced one new store item, Lost Ark Yoz's Jar, which allows players to recycle existing outfits for a chance to get higher tier ones.

Lost Ark July Roadmap
Click to enlargeWe also have some of the details for the July update, starting with the Lost Ark Arcanist class, which is the next to come under the Mage archetype. She has been released in Korea for some time, so we know a lot of details about her, which we've outlined in the link above.
The existing Valtan Legion Raid will also receive a brand-new Inferno difficulty mode, turning one of the harder raids into an even more difficult ordeal. It also shakes up the rewards by ditching gear and materials for prestige, represented by titles, achievements, and Stronghold structures. It will be available once a week, and players will need to be item level 1445 to take part.
The last big detail outline in the Lost Ark Roadmap for July is the addition of Challenge Guardian Raids, where the Scale of Harmony is applied to equal your power to your opponents. This comes after the Challenge Abyssal Dungeons, so we know how they function by making things more difficult and rotating rewards, but it gives players an additional activity to take part in.
Those are all the major details revealed in the Lost Ark Roadmap for June and July 2022, but you can read the full breakdown on the game's website here.
