Crimson Desert is sure to excite any fan of open-world titles, considering its gorgeous visuals, smooth combat, and a story that pits Kliff, a member of a powerful faction called the Greymanes against the Black Bears, a rival faction whose bloodthirsty ways permeate their speech and actions to make them excellent antagonists.
The gameplay showcase below demonstrates how the conflict between Greymanes and the Black Bears has affected the land of Pywel, where Crimson Desert is set. While its lush landscapes and mountains are the perfect opportunity for Pearl Abyss to implement some excellent climbing mechanics, Kliff’s problems with the vicious Black Bears take center stage in the new showcase.
The land of Pywel also gets its due in the video, with magic being a core part of the player’s experience. Kilff even gets a gliding mechanic that is sure to bring a smile on the faces of fans who have spent time in Rocksteady’s Batman titles. With Pywel providing the perfect backdrop for Kliff’s journey to unfold, reactions to the game suggest that Rockstar Games may finally lose the throne for the most immersive game ever made.

Pearl Abyss is sure to welcome the feedback and praise it is receiving for its work on Crimson Desert while Rockstar Games may be preparing to hand over the crown of the most immersive title to its new rival.
It may even learn a thing or two when the new game finally makes its way into players’ hands.
