Lost Ark – Holiday Awakening
- Buzzling Island – A whimsical new island debuts in the Gienah Sea, just left of Tortoyk. With a recommended item level of 1520 or above, players can transform into bees and compete in the Trial of Honor, earning Buzzling Island coins and rewards like T4 honing materials and cards.
- Pet Ability System – Pets can now enhance a stronghold's efficiency through a brand-new ability system! Train pets for unique abilities at the Stronghold Ranch, with abilities available in three grades: Rare, Epic, and Legendary, offering increasingly powerful effects. Train carefully, as pet abilities are specific to Security Division placements, with the Ranch providing battle-related effects, the Farm focusing on farm-related effects, and the Dock supporting stronghold activities like Dispatch and Craft.
- Progression Events – A new pair of progression events, Voldis Powerpass and Hyper Awakening, will arrive to help all types of players reach Tier 4 and Hyper Awakenings. Toto's Ice Castle also returns, where players will transform into Mokokos and participate in new icy minigames, with tokens earned from various activities redeemable for holiday-themed rewards and event items through February.
