From acclaimed studio Pearl Abyss, creators of Black Desert Online, comes Crimson Desert—a cinematic, open-world action-adventure epic built from the ground up with the groundbreaking BlackSpace Engine. Launching worldwide in 2025 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, the game follows mercenary leader Kliff and his band of Greymanes through a richly detailed medieval-fantasy continent torn by war, myth, and ambition.
Explore the seamless and immersive world of Pywel, where lush forests, wind-swept deserts, icy peaks, and vibrant cities come alive through dynamic weather systems, real-time environmental changes, and jaw-dropping visual fidelity. Engage in heart-pounding, physics-based combat that lets players forge their own fighting style—blending swords, bows, shields, enemy weapons, and wrestling-inspired moves in brutal, fluid combinations.
Beyond battle, players can fully inhabit the world through life activities like hunting, crafting, cooking, fishing, and taming mounts—including the ability to glide, skydive, and ride flying creatures across the massive landscape.
With emotionally resonant storytelling, a richly populated world, and an expansive toolkit for exploration and combat, Crimson Desert redefines what an open-world RPG can be—both technically and cinematically. This is more than a journey—it’s a world reborn for you to shape.
