Lost Ark - How to get the free Helgaia pet

The wait for Lost Ark in the West was a long one after the game was initially released to Asia markets back in December of 2019. A 2022 debut has seen a massive influx of players looking to build their destiny in-game and establish their character.

In accordance with the kickoff of Lost Ark in Western markets, game developers Smilegate have launched an event in conjunction with Twitch providing players with rewards. Legends of Lost Ark is now live and features a special pet you can unlock to aid you in the PC title.

You can thank some high-profile Twitch streamers for doing their part to make the rewards available. Here's how to get the free Helgaia pet as part of the Legends of Lost Ark event.
