Pearl Abyss has released the first official gameplay trailer for its upcoming open-world MMORPG, Crimson Desert. Crimson Desert looks absolutely gorgeous, so be sure to watch its trailer.
Crimson Desert is an upcoming open-world action-adventure game, featuring an epic-fantasy world. In a war for survival, three tribes will fight for control of the Pywell continent. Jason Jung, former game design director of RYL Online, is behind this project. Working alongside Jason Jung on RYL Online was Dae-il Kim, the founder of Pearl Abyss. Moreover, Eter Lee, former Lead Combat Designer of RYL Online and C9, is in charge of the action combat system for the title.
Here is the game’s description:
“A story of survival, Crimson Desert follows a group of struggling mercenaries and the many characters who cross their paths in the vast continent of Pywel. This is a world where heroes are made, but not without incredible hardship, pain and perseverance.”
Crimson Desert will release in Winter 2021.
Enjoy!

Another MMORPG garbage. This genre is so outdated
Wow I was not expecting this. I never really cared about MMORPG’s but man that is by far the best looking game I’ve ever seen.
Visuals are truly impressive…looks next-gen!
frame rate must be +240, they definitely aren’t going to downgrade anything you guys.
Wow! this is mighty impressive 0_0. Even the combat and animations look superb. F*cking shame it’s an MMO. Koreans love their MMOs FFS. They should shift to making single player games with this talent
it has a campaign and looking at genshin impact and how every game now is like a mmo, online features, grinding radiant quests, etc etc, are like a mmo, this is impressive.
Meh … the grinding(for levels especially) IS the reason I hate MMOs. That’s why I didn’t like Genshin Impact even though it had a good campaign. I might try this game just because it has awesome everything but I’ll probably drop it in a few days just like I did with Genshin Impact.
holy sht this korean mmo makes western rpgs look like a fcking joke. Looks above and beyond anything bioware, bethesda, cd projekt have made in a long time. How is it a korean studio makes a better western rpg than the west? Because the western industry is filled with talentless hacks.
What’s the point of making a good looking, functional, fun game if it isn’t sufficiently woke? Gotta make sure enough pink haired pronouns are employed.
unironicly what games journalists believe
Hope its not Pay to Win like Black Desert.

Finally a game teaser that actually shows real visuals instead of some CGI BS….and boy do these visuals look phenomenal.

The frame drops during combat sequences are horrendous and it is beyond me that why would such an ambitious project such as this be a MMO.
Everything about it looks good except that it’s an MMO. I was hoping it would be something closer to M&B or Elder Scrolls. Oh well. Maybe it’ll be an MMO but without the typical MMO gameplay.
So much aerial footage I thought it was Flight Simulator.
It’s really a shame it’s an MMO! But graphically it’s really very next-gen-ish … sure, the frame rate is poor and obviously lacks neatness …. but it looks very promising! Does it run on UE5 by chance?
Now this is next-gen game.
Too bad this is from black desert developers.
how is it not a singleplayer game ?
it looked like it
I will get this only if this is not MMO…
