Unfortunately, you cannot create an infinite number of characters in Lost Ark on the same server on the same account.

You can create up to 6 characters for free on the same server on the same account in Lost Ark. You can, however, create up to 6 characters for free on every other server in the game on the same account too.

If you don’t want to pay for additional character slots but want to have more characters on the same server, you can create another Steam account. Do note that in this case, your roster progress will not be shared across the two different Steam accounts, only the characters on the same server on the same account.

To increase the number of characters you can create on the same server on the same account in Lost Ark, go to the character selection screen, select the second row of characters in the bottom-left corner, click any of the character slots that say ‘Character Slot Extension’, and click OK.

Expanding the number of character slots on a server by one requires a Character Slot Extension Ticket, which costs 800 Royal Crystals, the equivalent of around $8.

Currently, you can increase the number of character slots on a server to a maximum of 18.

With the long list of servers to play on in Lost Ark, you can create tons of characters for free.

But, because of the roster system, and if you want to play with specific people, you might want to consider expanding your number of character slots if you wish to play more than 6 characters.

If you don’t want to spend anything and don’t care about the roster system, then it is possible to create multiple Steam accounts, giving you 6 free character slots per Steam account on each server.

We do not recommend using multiple Steam accounts, though, as the roster progress you make while playing is very beneficial to your other characters.
