Everything you need to know about Crimson Desert’s pre-order, including its various editions, pre-order bonuses, and more.
Crimson Desert, the intriguing new open-world RPG from Korean developer Pearl Abyss, finally has a confirmed release date. First announced back in 2023, Crimson Desert has mostly been an enigma for open-world fans, a game that showed up occasionally during events, but without revealing too much. However, following the most recent PlayStation State of Play, Pearl Abyss has finally revealed the game’s release date.
And surprisingly enough, the game’s coming out much sooner than most fans might have anticipated. Furthermore, following Crimson Desert’s release date announcement, pre-orders for the game also went live on all platforms.
Here’s everything you need to know about Crimson Desert’s pre-order, including prices, editions, and more.
Crimson Desert Release Date and Platforms
Crimson Desert is scheduled to be released on March 20, 2026. The game is coming to all current-gen platforms, i.e., PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Furthermore, the game is also coming to Mac, albeit with some limitations. You essentially need a system with Apple M1 or better to play Crimson Desert. Surprisingly enough, Crimson Desert initially started as an expansion for Black Desert Online.
However, with the game’s scope getting bigger with each update, Pearl Abyss eventually decided to make Crimson Desert into a standalone game with a single-player narrative. Although the game shares the same universe as Black Desert Online, it’s a completely separate story, with new characters, world politics, and more.
