Amsterdam, The Netherlands — February 28, 2024 — Korean developer and publisher Pearl Abyss revealed a new major milestone on Black Desert Online’s eight-year PC anniversary today, amassing more than 55 million registered online players across all platforms and generating over 2 billion euro (3 trillion Korean won) in revenue since its Korean launch in 2014.

Pearl Abyss will spend March celebrating two other big anniversaries this week. To kick off Black Desert Console’s fifth-year birthday and four years of Xbox and PlayStation cross-platform support, Pearl Abyss will bring ‘Scholar’ to both consoles Wednesday, March 6.
Following 2023’s year of awards, a critically acclaimed expansion, and electric community events – the 2023 Dari Award for Business of the Year, Land of the Morning Light expansion, and six+ community events worldwide – Pearl Abyss is poised to embrace 2024 with more culturally-authentic content, community celebrations, huge sales, and surprises.

“Our dedicated focus in 2024 is to make Black Desert more streamlined, accessible, and engaging for every level of player,” said Jaehee Kim, the Executive Producer of Black Desert. “This eight-year anniversary signals our progress towards that goal, and we’ll continue to achieve even more. Happy birthday, Adventurers!”
