The only title that could previously collect on Steam more players simultaneously than Lost Ark is Player Unknown's Battlegrounds (PubG). This brought it to 3.2 million simultaneous users in 2018 - more than twice as much as Lost Ark. Whether the Amazon MMORPG can crack this record, but we consider it unlikely. The long queues and repeated maintenance as well as the restrictions on character creation could be a sudden content of Hype.

In addition, the reviews of Lost Ark on Steam are also rather waxed. While the range of value for the main game is at least a cut of "mostly positive" and 73 percent positive ratings, the ratings for the payment packages are significantly less well.
