Crimson Desert Release Date: What Happens in the Battle of Crimson Desert?

By Phoebe Uren On Sep 16, 2022

Blood has indeed turned the desert red. That’s the first (and maybe most important) thing you need to know about Crimson Desert, a brand-new action game with an open world made by the same studio that made Black Desert Online. On the official site, it says that it is “a story written in blood,” and the sand shows that this is true.

So, tell me more about Crimson Desert. What else should I know? At 2020 The Game Awards, a five-minute clip of the game in action was shown, but it didn’t keep going. Instead, it was like seeing clips of the different settings, characters, fighting styles, and story points.

What’s the Story of Crimson Desert?

Even though it’s not clear how Pearl Abyss relates to Black Desert, it did give us some background on the story. Set in the world of Pywel, your job is to travel to the different regions, unite them under your cause, and find allies.

There are a few snippets of the story on the game’s website, but this is the best way to sum it up: “The Unifier of Lands, King of Demeniss, is in a coma. Those who have been hurt by his harsh rule are now trying to take advantage of his weakness. Some people who have been hurt by his conquests only want to be free, but others want their own absolute rule.”

Crimson Desert Release Date: When Will Be Come Out?

According to givemesport.com/ Crimson Desert was supposed to come out in 2021, but in July 2021, Pearl Abyss announced that the game would be pushed back.

We don’t know for sure when the game will come out, but it is thought that the new title will come out sometime in 2022. We’ll change this page when we know the official date.

Crimson Desert Gameplay

Some footage of the game has already been shown, but this “highlight reel” probably doesn’t show how the game is played.

The game is likely to be played from a third-person view, like the Shadow of Mordor games.

The game’s trailer puts a lot more focus on close-range weapons than on long-range weapons like bows and arrows, but there will be bow and arrow combat in the game.

Also, a player character hits a Stone Cold Stunner at one point in the trailer, so there’s that.

Which Platforms Will Crimson Desert Be Available on?

When Crimson Desert comes out in Winter 2021, it will be available on PC and consoles. Since the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X just came out, it’s likely that the team working on Crimson Desert is making the game for these next-generation consoles.

The developers said that the gameplay footage shown at The Game Awards was running in 4K. Keeping this in mind, it’s a safe bet that the final game will use the graphics capabilities of the next-generation consoles.

When Black Desert came out in 2014, it was only available on PC. The PS4, Xbox One, and mobile versions of the game didn’t come out until 2019.

Crimson Desert doesn’t look like it will come out in the same way that Black Desert did, which is good news for console players. There’s still more to come from Pearl Abyss about this new game, even though it won’t be out for almost a whole year.

What Happens in the Battle of Crimson Desert?

At first glance, it looks like typical mediaeval food. Swords, shields, axes, and bows—everything. Even though the trailer is clearly more about melee weapons than ranged weapons, bows and arrows are still shown in a big way. It looks like there’s a lot of close-quarters fighting with strong blows instead of clever moves. Don’t roll either.

At one point, the player character also drops a Stone Cold Stunner by accident. A bit later in the trailer, a cannon is shown, which doesn’t seem to fit at all with the time period.

The Crimson Desert website says that along with the old weapons, a new generation has come out: pistols next to swords, cannons next to axes, and even hand-mounted cannons.

Conclusion

Crimson Desert was supposed to come out in 2021, but was pushed back to 2022. The game is likely to be played from a third-person view, like the Shadow of Mordor games. It’s being made by the same studio that worked on Black Desert Online. When Crimson Desert comes out in 2021, it will be available on PC and consoles. The developers said that the gameplay footage was running in 4K.

Crimson Desert doesn’t look like it will come out in the same way that Black Desert did. It’s likely going to be made for next-generation consoles.
