Well , as you know or if someone watched , on GSTAR (korean E3) a game named "Lost Ark" has been announced , the game is focusing about MMO , game was announced on 2015 or 2014 i cant really remember , the game was have a CBT (closed beta) and another CBT is coming , the game currently is focusing only on korean version / language / servers / publishers but as i heard and read on reddit and on videos , the game is going to get released on the west , english version to europe , north america , middle east , oceania and probably worldwide.
The game himself has 18 Classes and on the CBT only 4 of them was playable , all the rest was locked without any reason , for those who are really want to know about the game release so SmileGate (developers) has been hiring people to help them with the game development on 2015 ~ 2016 , here is an article from "www.lostarkworld.com"
There is a LOT of hype about this game worldwide , a lot of people saying that its a kind of new style of classes and fighting there is a lot of dungeons , bosses , pvp's , pve and more.
From my vision this game have the most classes in the world , as we know "MapleStory" has like 10+ Classes , so smilegate reveals that the game has 18 Classes !

Quote:Hey Lost Ark fans! It has definitely been a long time since we have had any new information regarding Lost Ark and it is unquestionably making the wait for its release that much harder. However, there has been a update that the publishers of the game known as Smilegate are now hiring new candidates to fill in 3 varying positions within their team. These positions include Associate UI Artist, UI/UX Lighting Artist, and Software Engineer with requirements of being proficient in both Korean and English, as well as being able to relocate within the respective area in South Korea.
So what does this exactly mean for Lost Ark? It was clear from the first glimpse of the game that we would eventually get a release in the West and that the game itself would also be adjusted in its later periods of development to cater to Western players as well. The fact that two of these positions are in correspondence with the UI or “User Interface” area of the game further supports the idea that Smilegate is looking to start fine-tuning their RPG to correspond with Western players. In essence, it seems abundantly clear that the current positions that Smilegate is now hiring seem to correlate exactly with this plan that the publishers have set in motion. Since it’s also expected that some form of closed beta will be released later this year in Korea and China, we can confidently say that we are getting ever so closer to the international release of Lost Ark. Although there is still more waiting to be done, eventually we will be able to finally embrace the epic adventures and cinematic action that Smilegate has been working so hard on since 2011 to deliver to the world of gaming.
