Lost Ark player characters stand on icy cliffs in Rimeria, the new continent.
Explore the frozen expanse of Rimeria in Lost Ark’s latest update.

After years on ice (literally), Rimeria is finally open to adventurers. This new zone picks up where the main story left off, sending you to the South Isle to help the Yoz tribe contain a dangerous rift. The stakes are high: only players who’ve hit item level 1640 and wrapped up both ‘Paving the Way to Victory’ and ‘The Way Forward’ quests can even step foot on its frostbitten soil. The setting brings with it a fresh narrative, new dungeon content, and a chance to team up with fan-favorites like Shandi and Zakra.

If epic battles are more your speed, mark June 4 on your calendar. That’s when the third act of the eight-player Kazeros Raid drops-already infamous among Korean players for its white-knuckle difficulty. Normal mode requires an item level of 1680, but the truly brave (or foolish) can take on Hard mode at 1700. Amazon hints at even more punishing content in the pipeline, so this raid could be your proving ground for the future meta.

Take a break from battle with the Arkesia Grand Prix—earn coins, race, and win exclusive prizes until July 23.

Not every update is about life-or-death stakes. The beloved Arkesia Grand Prix event returns, letting you race for coins, rack up login bonuses, and nab weekly rewards—perfect for stocking up on honing materials, utility items, and even those coveted legendary card packs. It’s a welcome distraction from all the monster-slaying, running through July 23.

Fashionistas, rejoice: the new K-Pop Idol outfits in Neria’s Wardrobe let you bring a splash of vibrant style to Arkesia. It’s a clever nod to the game’s Korean roots—and a signal that Lost Ark continues to blend global pop culture with its own fantastical worldbuilding.

For all the quality-of-life changes, underlying tweaks, and balance adjustments, dig into the official patch notes. But the bigger picture is clear: Abyssal Assault is more than a content drop. It’s Amazon and Smilegate’s latest volley in the long campaign to make Lost Ark both more rewarding for veterans and more inviting for newcomers. With Paradise mode and further updates teased, 2025 is shaping up to be a landmark year for the MMO that refuses to rest on its laurels.

Will Rimeria and the latest raid be enough to satisfy Lost Ark’s high-level community? Or will the promise of a more accessible Paradise mode help close the gap for new players? As 2025 unfolds, all eyes are on Arkesia’s next evolution.

TL;DR: Lost Ark’s Abyssal Assault update opens the icy continent Rimeria for high-level players, adds a punishing new Kazeros Raid act debuting June 4, brings back the Arkesia Grand Prix event with big rewards, and unleashes a new K-Pop Idol wardrobe collection. Available now for free on Steam.
