Lost Ark Launch Event Will See Streamers Racing To Unlock Twitch Drops

Lost Ark, the free-to-play Korean MMO from Smilegate that is finally coming to the West courtesy of Amazon, is kicking off the game’s launch with a Twitch event that will let viewers score some free loot–should streamers be up to the task.

The drops will be claimable from February 8 to February 28, and viewers can track each team’s progress via a leaderboard.
