[단독]펄어비스 '붉은사막' 11월 2일 출시...글로벌 출사표
펄어비스의 기대작 '붉은사막'이 오는 11월 2일 출시를 예정하고 있다. 일각에서 2026년으로 출시가 밀릴 수 있다는 관측이 나왔으나, 올해 4분기 출시를 공언했던 당초 계획대로 출시가 이뤄진다. 'GTA6'의 출시가 내년으로 연기된 바 있는데, '붉은사막'이 GOTY(올해의 계임)의 영예를 안을 수 있을지 눈길을 모은다.17일 머니투데이방송MTN 취재에 따르면 펄어비스는 '붉은사막'의 출시일을 오는 11월 2일로 잠정 결정하고 개발 종반부 공정을 진행하고 있다. 이변이 없으면 이 날짜가 정식 출시일로 최종 확정된다.'붉은

Pearl Abyss' highly anticipated 'Crimson Desert' is scheduled to be released on November 2nd. Some speculated that the release could be pushed back to 2026, but it will be released as originally planned in the fourth quarter of this year. The release of 'GTA6' was postponed to next year, so attention is focused on whether 'Crimson Desert' will be able to take the GOTY (Game of the Year) award.
According to an interview with Money Today Broadcasting MTN on the 17th, Pearl Abyss has tentatively set the release date for 'Crimson Desert' to November 2nd and is currently in the final stages of development. If there are no changes, this date will be confirmed as the official release date.
'Crimson Desert' is an open-world action adventure game currently under development by Pearl Abyss. Its first development news was announced in 2019. At the time, Pearl Abyss was on a growth trajectory with the success of 'Black Desert Mobile'.
It was originally predicted to be produced as an MMORPG in the vein of 'Black Desert', but the direction was changed to the open-world action adventure genre. Since Pearl Abyss received favorable reviews both domestically and internationally for 'Black Desert', there was also great interest in its next concept, 'Crimson Desert'.
It has been reported that Sony approached Pearl Abyss to secure exclusive distribution rights for 'Crimson Desert', but they did not accept. Anticipation was high, but as development was prolonged, uncertainty persisted, making it difficult to predict the release date.
It was announced at 'The Game Awards' held in Los Angeles, USA in December last year that it would be released around the end of 2025. It was
initially predicted that it would be released around the same time as 'GTA6', which was scheduled to be released in the third quarter of this year, but with the release of 'GTA6' being pushed back to next year, it is evaluated that a release within the year has become 'relievingly' possible.
Regarding this, Pearl Abyss said, "Information related to the release will be disclosed later through official channels."
Among the anticipated releases from domestic companies, Hive IM's 'Architect,' NC's 'Aion 2,' and Netmarble's 'Seven Deadly Sins: Origins' are expected to be released around the same time as 'Crimson Desert.'
Among the games introduced by the domestic industry, this one is likely to have the biggest global impact, and attention is focused on the direction in which this game and Pearl Abyss will unfold.
