How this date is sourced
Recent season cadence: last 3
Lost Ark Paradise Season 4 is estimated to end around February 3, 2027 (verified October 18, 2026). Paradise Season 4 launched July 15, 2026 alongside the Summer of Extremes update, resetting Paradise's weekly and seasonal leaderboards across its three activities: Elysian, Crucible, and Hell.
When Does Lost Ark Paradise Season 4 End?
Lost Ark Paradise Season 4 launched July 15, 2026 alongside the Summer of Extremes update. Lost Ark's official account has confirmed the season runs until February 3, 2027, though the exact reset hour has not been published.
At roughly seven months, Season 4 is significantly longer than Paradise's earlier ~100-130 day cycles; it is also the last full season before Amazon Games hands Western publishing duties back to Smilegate in early 2027.
What's New in Paradise Season 4
Paradise Season 4 opened with the Summer of Extremes update, which also reworked parts of the raid endgame around it.
Changes inside Paradise
Season 4 brings a fresh leaderboard with its own ranking rewards: an adventurer badge, a title and a banner. The biggest mechanical change is in the Hell dungeon, which now has falling points every ten floors with success or failure outcomes, adding a risk-and-reward decision to each descent. Three drops of the same distance in a row trigger a lucky reward.
Summer of Extremes raids and modes
The same patch added Kazeros Raid: Act 1 Extreme, a harder return to the Aegir fight across three escalating difficulty tiers. Solo Mode expanded to Kazeros Raid Act 4 and the Final Act, and a new matchmaking mode for Serca lets players take on that raid at reduced difficulty with party size scaling dynamically.
A fix during the season
In late August the team paused part of Paradise to investigate Elysian challenge tickets being returned to accounts in an unintended way. Paradise reopened once the investigation ended; the tickets gained that way were not restored.
Before Paradise Season 4 Ends: What to Finish
Paradise is separate from the Ark Pass and from Proving Grounds PvP seasons, which end on their own dates, so check each one individually.
Crucible rankings
Weekly Crucible rankings pay out Hell Keys and temporary titles. At season end, your final ranking tier awards character-bound Gold, banners, titles and insignias, so where you stand when Paradise Season 4 closes decides that payout.
Milestone rewards
Crucible milestones unlock chests such as Honing Support Selection Chests, Regulus's Light currency chests and the Honing Material Selection Chest: Crucible. Milestones are per season, so unclaimed ones are worth finishing first.
Mail before the publisher change
Smilegate takes over Western publishing from Amazon Games in early 2027. Characters, progress, inventory and wallet balances transfer, but in-game mail, friend lists, block lists and chat data do not. Collect anything waiting in your mailbox before the transition.
What Comes Next After Paradise Season 4
Paradise Season 5 has not been announced. No start date or changes are public, and it is not yet known whether Amazon Games or Smilegate will launch it. Between seasons, the roadmap pattern so far has been a short break of about a week before the next leaderboard opens.
The current roadmap covers the rest of 2026 instead: Belgardin content in October, Kazeros Raid Act 3: Extreme and the eight-week Vestiges of the End multi-boss event in November, and a winter skin in December. Paradise changes are announced in the roadmap posts and release notes on playlostark.com and on @playlostark.
Lost Ark Paradise Season End Date History
Recent Paradise seasons: Season 3 ran 126 days (Mar 11 – Jul 15, 2026), Season 2 ran 104 days (Nov 19, 2025 – Mar 3, 2026), and Season 1, the system's debut, ran 113 days (Jul 23 – Nov 12, 2025).
Season length has grown with each cycle, and Season 4's ~7-month run breaks the pattern entirely, Smilegate and Amazon Games have not explained the jump, though it lines up with the 2027 publishing transition.
