What Lost Ark is

Lost Ark is an adventure game developed by Tripod Studio and released in 2019. It was published by Amazon Game Studios. It is available on PC (Microsoft Windows) only. It runs on Unreal Engine 3.

The premise, in the publisher's words

The whole world is in chaos from the attack of Kazeros’ demon army, as Kazeros opens the Chaos Gate with his six legions to invade the human world. Like a legend that exists in myths, the world has become a place where there are no heroes and everyone has forgotten about the Ark that defeated the demons in the past. Now, the player must venture the vast world of the Lost Ark to gather the pieces and go against the demon army. The one force that can stand up against the demons!

What you need to run it

The minimum specification calls for Intel Core i3 – 10100 AMD Ryzen3 3100, 16 GB RAM and Nvidia Geforce GTX 1050 Ti / AMD Radeon RX 560. A 16GB memory requirement is demanding — worth checking before you buy, because 8GB is still common in older and budget machines. It also needs around 110GB of free storage, which is a real consideration on a 512GB drive. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
