Unfortunately, even after a semi-global release, "Lost Ark," the popular MMORPG game is not available to play in several parts of the world. Still, many players from the Unavailable/Locked regions are enjoying the game through a small trick. To begin with, you will need to open a Steam account from any available regions(Lost Ark official release regions) using a VPN.

Installing and Playing Lost Ark using a VPN

As mentioned above, you will need to create a new Steam account from any supported regions near your country using a VPN. You can check the official countries list from the Lost Ark website.

After opening your Steam account, install the free game on your PC like any other Steam game. It will take a bit of time(5-6 hours) to install as you are using a VPN to download the game which is over 70GB. After downloading, connect and play like any other game. Your overall experience will be a little lackluster and slow due to the VPN, as it entirely depends on your ping. 

Buying Lost Ark Pack Bundle

If you need to buy some packs for Lost Ark, recharge your account using Steam Wallet codes and buy your respective packs.

Remember, the author nor Pro Game Guides encourages you to use a VPN to disguise your location. This guide only serves as an educational piece on Lost Ark. It is against the Amazon Games' TOS to use any VPN, proxy, or third-party software to play the game.
