About
Crimson Desert is an open-world action-adventure game set in the beautiful yet brutal continent of Pywel. Take on the role of the Greymane Kliff and embark on a journey across the continent to reclaim everything you’ve lost. Explore uncharted lands, encounter mysterious factions, and experience firsthand a world that is as breathtaking as it is merciless.
During a brutal attack by the Black Bears, Kliff loses his Greymane comrades, his family in all but name.
Amid the turmoil that grips the continent of Pywel, he sets out to find the scattered survivors, rebuild the fallen Greymanes, and reclaim the homeland they once called their own.
A Vast, Seamless World
The continent of Pywel, brought to life as a seamless open world, is brimming with countless destinies awaiting your discovery.
One day you may face a trial so harsh it brings you to your knees. The next day you might find yourself captivated by the gentle gaze of an innocent creature.
In this boundless land, even the simplest request could set you on the path to a fateful encounter and reveal an unexpected truth.
May Solumen’s blessing guide you on your journey across the living, breathing expanse of Pywel.
Relentless Action, Brutal Combat
On the unforgiving battlefields of Crimson Desert, there is no single path to victory.
From swords, spears, bows to powerful abilities and elemental enhancements, take advantage of the wide arsenal of weapons and skills available to you and create lethal combinations to unleash even greater power.
With every strike and move, forge your own way in a world where a split second can decide your fate in fast-paced, visceral battles.
Dawning Fate
On the continent of Pywel, the rival factions of Pailune maintained a tense balance.
At Kliff’s side stood his steadfast Greymane comrades: Oongka, Yann, and Naira.
That fragile peace was shattered with the sudden assault of the Black Bears.
Those Who Fight to Protect, and Those Who Fight to Torment.
The Greymanes fall one by one in their clash against the Black Bears. In a desperate struggle against their fearsome leader Myurdin, Kliff and the few Greymanes who survive are scattered to the winds.
The Beginning of a New Journey
Kliff, etching the names of his fallen companions into his heart, vows to rebuild the Greymanes and exact vengeance upon the Black Bears.
Along this path, he would meet those who seek to upend the very order of the continent and face a mission unlike any he has ever known.
