New Crimson Desert Gameplay Revealed
South Korean developer Pearl Abyss has just released an extensive new gameplay video for their ambitious action RPG, Crimson Desert. This fresh, 13-minute look offers players a detailed glimpse into the game's impressive graphics and core mechanics, including its spectacular combat and expansive open-world traversal.
A Glimpse Into the World of Pywel
The gameplay video kicks off in a bustling military camp, where the protagonist, Captain Kliff, arrives under the Duke's orders. His immediate mission is to defend a castle currently under siege. Kliff joins the army, quickly repairing a cannon to blast through enemy watchtowers. However, the invasion proves relentless, pushing the conflict from the camp directly into the castle itself. Here, Kliff fights valiantly alongside his comrades, culminating in a fierce confrontation with a heavily armored boss.
Crimson Desert unfolds on the war-torn continent of Pywel, where players will journey as part of the “Gray Mane” mercenary band, led by none other than Captain Kliff. As players progress, they will encounter a diverse cast of characters and experience a rich, multifaceted combat system. This system promises a wide array of combos and special abilities, designed to deliver the satisfying action typical of classic slasher games.

Crimson Desert is currently in development for PC (via Steam), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. The game will also feature Russian text localization. Fans can look forward to its official release in the first quarter of 2026.
