Lunatic Ignus, a reliable leaker for Chinese games like Black Myth Wukong, has shared some new details about Crimson Desert. According to the leaker, the game will come out in Q1 2025. Moreover, Pearl Abyss will have a new playable demo for it at this year's Gamescom event.



This falls in line with the previous rumor about it. In December 2023, InsightKorea claimed that the game was unofficially delayed until 2025.

Game looks... Crazy as fuck. Like they grabbed the main gameplay mechanics from BOTW, Dragon's Dogma, Assassins Creed and many others and put them together.



Could be pretty good or a total mess. Honestly I'm not sure I like it, combat looks kinda floaty and there are waaaay too many particle effects.
 
Very interested in this one. Not just because it looks like a really good action game, but because these new Asian studios have been killing it lately.
 
Hope its a proper SP game and not as grindy or P2W as BDO, the videos look fantastic.

Xbox? PS5? PC only?

Hopefully there's no downgrade, their engine is super heavy but they are leveraging things like frame gen natively so maybe they can pull off these dynamic visuals.

There will be no downgrade, not least because the game has received major graphics upgrades over the years. Just compare it to the first trailer from 2019.
