A new update for the PC version of Crimson Desert introduces a long-awaited feature: a personal storage chest. You can access it right away in the Hernand lodgings, and later at the Greymanes’ camp. This means you won’t have to constantly do tasks for townspeople just to get more inventory space, something the game kept prompting you to do.
The update also adds more fast travel points – called Abyss Nexuses – across Pywel, so you can get around much quicker. You’ll also unlock the Force Palm ability sooner, and finding ore deposits will be easier, as they’ll now appear when you’re within a short distance of them.
The game has received some balance changes, including adjustments to enemy and boss difficulty, though the specifics haven’t been detailed. Blocking attacks now uses less stamina, helping you withstand stronger hits. Plus, the boss Kearush the Slayer has been tweaked – his attacks are now different, making the fight fairer if you found him overwhelming before.
There are also several quality-of-life improvements, like keyboard and mouse shortcuts for the Inventory, Skills, Journal, and Map. We’ve also removed the Lightning damage requirement for mining Bismuth ore. You can find a detailed list of changes in the patch notes below, and even more information on our website. A separate quick update has been released for PlayStation players to fix a bug that prevented some actions from working correctly after leaving Kliff.
We’re still working on removing the AI-generated artwork that was recently found, so it will take a little more time.
