Smilegate RPG and Amazon have announced that Lost Ark's Western release will be pushed back into 2022, citing quality assurance and the health of its workers as the key reasons for the delay.
In a statement on the game's site, the developer announced that it'll be nudging the release date back a bit in order to act on feedback garnered during the closed alpha test that took place in June this year.
Additionally, the post notes that the studios want to ensure the wellness of the workers at both Smilegate and Amazon is considered as the game approaches its Western launch window, with both companies seemingly reticent to make their workers crunch.
