Lost Ark: How to claim Twitch Drops

After enjoying regional exclusivity in South Korea and Russia since 2019, Lost Ark has finally made its way to the west. Taking advantage of the buzz surrounding the Head Start release, developer Smilegate RPG has teamed up with a number of Twitch streamers to give away free copies of the game in exchange for watching.

To claim Twitch drops, go to your Twitch Drop Inventory page and double-check that a drop is available. Make sure you're signed in to your Twitch account if the inventory page isn't loading properly. Lost Ark is now labeled as 'LoLA' on the Twitch drops page. There will be a 'Connect' button on the screen. Connect your Twitch account with that button, then sign in with Steam.

If the 'Connect' option isn't available, go to PlayLostArk to find the relevant page. You'll need to activate the drop and claim it on Twitch after you've connected your two accounts. After you've claimed through Twitch and connected all of your accounts, the next step is to wait.

Sure, it's a letdown, but the drop will be available in Lost Ark within 24 hours after being claimed. Twitch drops will be accessible occasionally during events and updates, such as the current Legends of the Lost Ark event.
