If there’s no choice-especially on the back of Black Desert‘s fantastic character creator-that’ll be a real disappointment.Ĭrimson Desert is set for release in winder 2021 on consoles and PC. Hier findest du alle Infos zum Action-Adventurespiel Crimson Desert von Pearl Abyss für PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S: Release, Gameplay und alles, was ihr wissen müsst. In the fact sheet Pearl Abyss provided, it says that, “Players assume the role of Macduff, a skilled warrior with a tragic past, as he leads his mercenaries into conflict to regain lands that were once their own.”ĭoes this mean we’ll have no customization over Macduff, such as in the way of gender? In the trailer, there’s a quick scene where two very similar-looking characters are shown, so I was thinking that might be the two characters we pick from, similar to other games like Mass Effect, or Dragon Age: Inquisition, or Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, or whatever else. There is, however, one elements to Crimson Desert I’m not excited for at this point: that it seems like we might not have any choice over the main character. Players will explore a huge kingdom, engaging with worldviews, religions, and characters unique to Crimson Deserts universe. In the press email I received about the game, it’s touted that in the trailer, “all footage is the actual in-game and gameplay. No edits or added effects.” Coming as part of a show that had a lot of CG “concept” videos, I appreciate trailers like this, even if it means noticeable framerate drops and other signs of a game still in development. Since then, though, it’s shimmered, mirage-like, into its own IP, still linked to the preexisting world, but more nebulously. Scheduled for release in winter 2021, the game tells the story of a mercenary fighting for survival in the vast continent of Pywel, with a focus on realistic depictions of characters and narratives. Pearl Abyss’s recently announced single- and multiplayer blended RPG Crimson Desert started life as a prequel to their similarly named MMO Black Desert Online. I also have to give Pearl Abyss credit for showing us the actual game, rough edges and all. Crimson Desert is an open world action-adventure game currently in development using Pearl Abyss’ next-generation proprietary engine. Crimson Desert markets itself as an adventure set within a 'war-torn' and 'unforgiving' land, where the main character, named Macduff, must put together a band of mercenaries to survive the challenges ahead.
