Crimson Desert Patch Adds Rematches for 69 Bosses, Re-Blockades for 23 Forts and Mines, and More

by

The latest update for Crimson Desert introduces two key features: Rematch and Re-blockade. Rematch lets players re-fight bosses they’ve already defeated, either at their original difficulty or scaled to the player’s current level.

Kliff, Damiane, and Oongka are capable of battling these enemies, and any items you use during the fight will be given back to you – though you won’t get any new equipment as a reward. The new Re-blockade feature lets 13 different groups take control of 23 forts and mines again, meaning you’ll have to recapture them. This feature is on by default, but you can change it to happen continuously or turn it off completely.

Pearl Abyss intends to expand and refine this feature in upcoming updates, introducing new factions and strongholds, and enhancing how Liberation and Re-blockade work as a whole.

This update adds two new Legendary animals you can tame: the Iron Eagle and the Hyacinth Macaw. A new creature called the Mountain God Boar also appears sometimes, but it’s currently unknown if you can ride it. See the patch notes below for a complete list of changes.

Wow, Patch 1.05.00 just dropped, and it feels like a huge milestone for the game! Pearl Abyss says it wraps up their current plans, but honestly, with Crimson Desert already selling over five million copies, I have a feeling this is just the beginning. I’m super excited to see what they’re cooking up next – definitely keeping an eye out for more news!
