Crimson Desert fans can download another new update, as developer Pearl Abyss drops a surprise patch to end the week. The new Crimson Desert update is out now on PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC. The new update continues to make improvements and fixes to the massive open-world game. For example, it fixes an issue where shining a lantern on an NPC would not make their belongings visible, and where Thornbriar Fortress could not be liberated.
As you can see from the patch notes further down the page, Pearl Abyss has solved a rather annoying issue where some items would disappear from the Trade Goods Storage when loading certain save files. Likewise, fans can expect a fix for a problem where chaining “Descending Force Palm” after “Aerial Force Palm” did not function properly in certain situations.
The launch of the new update coincides with a further boost in the Crimson Desert review scores on Steam, which are up to ‘Very Positive’ in the English Reviews section.
The game initially launched to mixed reviews, with the game containing various bugs and control issues.
The steady stream of updates has improved how the game plays, made the experience even smoother and even added new content.
The improvements are so vast that the game is now called Crimson Desert Enhanced.
