Pearl Abyss’s RPG is shaping up to become one of the year’s biggest releases, and you can get in day one at a discount.
Crimson Desert is almost here, bringing its epic single-player RPG adventure to Steam, Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 next month.
Currently the 12th most-wishlisted game on Steam, and already 56th on the list of bestsellers, there’s plenty of anticipation surrounding Pearl Abyss’s upcoming release.
You might be familiar with Pearl Abyss’s other game, Black Desert, an MMORPG that isn’t shy about offering microtransactions.
Thankfully though, Pearl Abyss has said you won’t find MTX in Crimson Desert when it launches on March 19.
In fact, if you buy the Xbox Series X|S version, you’ll also be able to play it on PC at no extra cost. That’s because Crimson Desert has been listed as an Xbox Play Anywhere game, meaning one purchase lets you enjoy it across all available devices, with saves and progression seamlessly transferring between them.
And wherever you’re playing, you can look forward to experiencing a story of power and control, where danger and opportunity exist side by side, and the decisions you make along your journey influence what the world of Pywel decides to reveal.
But what about that world? Well, you can expect a sprawling, vibrant land with memorable discoveries to be made, factions to encounter, and a world to lose yourself in, whether you find yourself admiring the view from atop a snow-peaked mountain, traveling across lush, open pastures, or arriving at one of Pywel’s medieval-style settlements.
Whoever you meet, wherever they are, they’ll all be voiced by actual humans, which might not sound impressive, but in an age of AI and considering Crimson Desert’s vast scope, that’s an achievement that shouldn’t be glossed over.

Are there any Crimson Desert Steam key deals?
If you’re on PC, you can bag a Crimson Desert Steam key discount of 15% ahead of launch, but there’s no deal available for Xbox or PlayStation players at the minute.
Remember though, buying on Xbox also gets you access to the PC version, thanks to Xbox Play Anywhere.
The same discount can also be had with the Crimson Desert Deluxe Edition, saving you $12 while adding these Deluxe Pack items to the base game:
- Balgran Shield
- Exclaire Horse Tack Set
- Kairos Plate Set
