Daum Games Europe today announced that it is working with developer Pearl Abyss to bring its successful MMORPG Black Desert Online to North America and Europe. To celebrate, Daum Games launched a new trailer for Black Desert Online that can be viewed below.
Black Desert Online is an open world action MMORPG with next generation visuals and skilled based combat that will rejuvenate the genre.
Black Desert Online has the best character customization system of any game that is currently on the market. This feature allows for unprecedented detailed character creation.
As its press release reads, Black Desert Online’s intuitive controls, beautifully designed world and extensive lore will excite both newcomers and veterans of MMO games and action RPG’s in general.
The upcoming Western release will differ in many ways from the already launched Russian and Korean services, such as the game’s balancing, progression and monetization model.
Daniel Loehr (AKA Belsazar), Project Manager at Daum Games, said:
“We are putting a lot of effort in the game’s Western localization. We are localizing approximate 2.5 million words into English, German and French. Black Desert Online’s content and gameplay sytems will be adjusted to accommodate Western players and our differentiating business model.”
Black Desert Online will be released in early 2016 and will not be free to play or use a subscription model. Instead players will buy the game once and can purchase vanity and convenience items.
Enjoy!

oh i thought the game is going to be free but if it get a steam release i will buy it
Great, pay once play forever*
*forever means until servers last
Sorry but what is up with these god damn developers (a lot lately) not including one of the most spoken languages in the world…Spanish. I’m tired of lazy developers that don’t include Spanish for who knows what.
Do they think that we don’t buy their games or what?
Like if French or German are the most used languages in the world alone with English.
And the same happens with Portuguese and Italian as well.
I own a lot of games that are not translated to Spanish but most of my friends won’t play them because they don’t understand it as well as me, and they think it is important to know at least the meaning of some important stuff. (mostly in MMORPG’s as bigger as this with a lot of stuff in your screen)
I just don’t get it.
Just for reference: Spanish is the 2nd most spoken language in the World below Mandarin (Chinese), then English in 3rd and so on.
Then they wonder why we don’t play their games…
So you’re saying most people from Europe, Americas, Austrialia, Japan, Southeast Asia, Africa, Greenland, Iceland, etc. know how to speak Mandarin?
It’s a population statistic not that people in different counties speak Mandarin or Spanish.
Yes that’s why English always should be translated. But why not Spanish when you have an entire continent that speak in that language.
And what about the amount of people that speak Spanish in the US as well. (of course they speak in English…well, some of them at least…)
Just French and German alone don’t make any sense to me.
🙁 I want Polish language.
oh hell yeah. love the Guild Wars 2 model. I’ll buy this for sure.
Is there a way to just download the character creator of this game?
They could probably just sell the character creator separately and it’d sell like crazy.
Even though its not free to play anymore for the west this game has lots and lots of store items which will still cost real money.
