Crimson Desert release date turned out to be a fake: Pearl Abyss studio denied the information by a Korean publication

The other day the Korean edition of Money Today published an interview with the developers of the ambitious action-RPG Crimson Desert from Pearl Abyss studio, and it was stated that the game will be released on the 2nd of November. This way of announcement caused surprise, because the release date of big-budget games is usually revealed in pathos and spectacular trailers or in social networks of studios.

Here's What We Know

It turns out that the information in Money Today is not true! The developers not only did not call the release date of the game, but even did not give this publication an interview.

Thus, the release date of Crimson Desert again remains unknown, and the authors emphasised that when they are ready to name it - they will do it in their own channels and gamers will definitely not miss this information.

Flashback

Crimson Desert is a dark role-playing game, which was supposed to be a spin-off of the popular MMORPG Black Desert, but eventually turned into an independent single-player project.

The novelty is characterised by excellent graphics, dynamic combat system, huge open world with a lot of picturesque locations and unique enemies and exciting quests.

In terms of gameplay, the Korean action game is extremely similar to many popular modern games, including The Witcher 3, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Elden Ring, Final Fantasy XVI, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and Dragon's Dogma 2.

Crimson Desert will be available on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, and the leak revealed that the game will also be coming to Nintendo Switch 2.
