Pearl Abyss recently announced positive updates for Crimson Desert players, including new downloadable content and plans to significantly improve the game. Although Crimson Desert‘s development took longer than expected with several delays, its success since launching in March suggests the wait was worthwhile.
Okay, so Crimson Desert had a bit of a rocky start – reviews were all over the place, and even the company’s stock took a hit. But honestly? We, the players, absolutely loved it. It wasn’t perfect when it first came out, but word spread fast, and the game just kept selling. Pearl Abyss has been amazing with updates, constantly listening to our feedback and actually doing something with it. We’ve already gotten tons of new content since launch, but everyone was wondering what they had planned next. And now, we’re finally getting a peek!
Crimson Desert Confirms DLC Plans
Pearl Abyss announced that Crimson Desert generated around $178.8 million in revenue by the end of March, with sales being roughly equal between console and PC versions. While they anticipate revenue will decrease slightly now that the initial launch period is over, they still forecast the game will earn between $432.2 and $514.4 million total. Based on these early figures, Crimson Desert is currently expected to be a top-selling game in 2026.

Pearl Abyss intends to keep expanding the game and boosting sales by improving player enjoyment, releasing more updates, and exploring new platforms. Many believe this could mean a version for the upcoming Switch 2, as Crimson Desert is already available on other major consoles.

Pearl Abyss seems committed to the strategy that’s brought them success so far. They deliberately chose not to release a detailed content plan for Crimson Desert, wanting to avoid making promises they might not be able to keep and assuming they knew what players wanted. Instead, they’re focusing on listening to player feedback and observing how the community engages with the game. The head of publishing even stated that they’re open to ideas from any source and aren’t afraid to incorporate suggestions from others.
