If you want improved performance in every way on PlayStation, then the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk\/system\/sony-playstation-5-pro-console\">PlayStation 5 Pro<\/a> is the console for you. With improved graphical capabilities and loading speeds. Crimson Desert also features <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk\/blog\/core-knowledge\/ps5-backwards-compatibility-can-you-play-ps4-games-on-a-ps5\/\">PS4 backwards compatibility<\/a>, which is unheard of for the newest generation of gaming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"Crimson-Desert--Price,-Editions,-consoles-and-more\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Crimson Desert- Price, Editions, consoles and more<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Crimson Desert had a simultaneous global release (including the UK) on March 19, 2026 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X\/S, PC (via Steam, Epic Games Store, and Pearl Abyss), and macOS.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Retail Prices:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><\/td><td>Original<\/td><td>Deluxe Edition<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Steam<\/td><td>\u00a354.99<\/td><td>\u00a364.99<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>PlayStation 5<\/td><td>\u00a354.99<\/td><td>\u00a364.99<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Xbox<\/td><td>\u00a354.99<\/td><td>\u00a364.99<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"Release-Date,-Updates-and-New-Features\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Release Date, Updates and New Features<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Crimson Desert was released on the 19th of March 2026. Despite being a single-player game, it has been continuously updated to the point it may well be a different game entirely come 2027.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Update 1.06<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">New special mounts have been added to the game in version 1.06.00, which brings a huge wave of new content and quality-of-life improvements to the game, allowing players to tame and ride creatures like bears, wolves, camels, lions, and more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Updates also introduce a new extraction system that allows players to recover refinement materials from upgraded gear without destroying the equipment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alongside these more major features, patches have added sword sheaths, a new display toggle, Night Tone Mode for improved visuals, new unarmed combat skills for Oongka, expanded mount equipment options, and dozens of gameplay, combat, UI (user interface), performance, and localisation fixes across all platforms.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Players can now expect smoother combat, improved stronghold missions, better inventory management tools, enhanced HDR support, and a wide range of bug fixes and balancing updates throughout the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Update 1.08<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Update 1.08 introduced guns to your arsenal and raccoons. Plus other non-pet animals such as axolotls and features for gameplay improvement, but really it\u2019s all about the guns and pet raccoons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/cyberpowergaming.co.uk\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Crimson-Desert-Critter-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5121\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.3333333333333333;object-fit:cover;width:467px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cyberpowergaming.co.uk\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Crimson-Desert-Critter-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/cyberpowergaming.co.uk\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Crimson-Desert-Critter-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/cyberpowergaming.co.uk\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Crimson-Desert-Critter-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/cyberpowergaming.co.uk\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Crimson-Desert-Critter-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/cyberpowergaming.co.uk\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Crimson-Desert-Critter-2048x1152.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Game Update Rumours<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s been rumoured that Pearl Abyss will be releasing a character creation feature, but this is unlikely since the main character, Kliff, has now become the face of the game with dedicated voice acting and story. However, there are other playable characters who appear later in the story with their own combat techniques and play styles.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re playing on PC and really want to play as your own character, there are multiple mods you can download which allow character creation. Always ensure your mods are from reputable, secure sources and support small creators- they do amazing work to keep the games we love alive!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"Will-Crimson-Desert-be-on-Game-Pass?\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will Crimson Desert be on Game Pass?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Crimson Desert is not currently available on Game Pass or PlayStation Plus, but could well be in the future. It\u2019s extremely unusual for games this successful this early after release to be featured on a free platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s likely that those looking for great deals will either need to wait for the hype to die down or check out the Steam Summer Sales on the 25th of June.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"Crimson-Desert-system-requirements-and-specs\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Crimson Desert system requirements and specs&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A few teething issues the game initially had included the poor performance on console and the fact that developers appeared to have forgotten that Intel produced their own graphics cards. Crimson Desert now supports Intel Arc graphics cards.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Crimson Desert on PC<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The best way to play Crimson Desert is on PC. With the right monitor setup and a well-configured PC build, this game is visually stunning, with 100s of hours of exploration and gameplay that you won\u2019t want to miss in frame drops and lost details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The minimum specs listed require extremely low-range graphics cards. However, those are the bare minimum standards. Below are the specs for an average-to-exemplary visual experience.

Whilst the recommended specs on Steam are lower, to play the game at a reasonable level, as well as support other titles, it\u2019s recommended you choose a later-gen graphics card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"Budget-Friendly-PC-Build-(Under-\u00a31000)\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Budget Friendly PC Build (Under \u00a31000)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At under \u00a31000 this is a good entry-level build for casual gamers with potential for upgrades and a GPU capable of delivering decent performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk\/system\/infinity-145-d435-next-day-pc\">Infinity 145 D456 Next Day PC SY3079<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">NVIDIA\u00ae GeForce RTX\u2122 5060 8GB<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Intel\u00ae Core\u2122 i5-12400F<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">16GB DDR4 3200 MT\/s<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"Intermediate-PC-Build-(Under-\u00a31500)\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Intermediate PC Build (Under \u00a31500)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB is slated to be the equivalent of NVIDIA\u2019s GeForce 5060.

The original release, the look is somewhat compromised in places, and the graphics are generally worse on the base console in both performance and quality mode. However, the FPS drops to 30 with high performance settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PS5 Pro<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The PlayStation 5 Pro is the best way to run Crimson Desert on console without a doubt. Whilst the game still runs at 30 FPS in performance mode, the visual clarity more than makes up for the drop.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Console Updates<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Abyss continues to update the base game, it\u2019s likely that with dedicated optimisation, we could see much better performance in future out of Crimson Desert across all platforms. So far we\u2019ve seen:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Improved graphics with sharper textures, reduced pop-in, and fixed visual glitches<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Better draw distances and enhanced reflections with new ray tracing options<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So they\u2019re certainly not slacking on console updates, so don\u2019t feel like you\u2019re being left behind if you\u2019re a PS5, Xbox or handheld gamer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"Game-Engines-and-Development\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Game Engines and Development<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So why is Crimson Desert so well optimised? It all comes down to the game engine. If you\u2019re a serious game developer, you\u2019ll know the choices of game development engines out there and what they\u2019re used for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re new to game development, well, a basic breakdown goes as follows: a pre-developed game engine can allow a developer to drag and drop assets through a UI, as well as hard-code and debug mechanics and assets.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pearl Abyss have created their own dedicated game engine known as the BlackSpace Engine, specifically optimised for the world built for Crimson Desert as well as Pearl Abyss\u2019 future releases. This in-house-built engine allowed them to design an extremely well-optimised game at scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Unreal Engine for Game Development<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unreal Engine is Epic Games\u2019 toolkit for building games and interactive worlds. It handles visuals, lighting, physics, and sound, turning simple ideas into believable environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Developers use it to create how a game looks, moves, and responds, whether through code or visual tools. In short, it\u2019s the behind-the-scenes system that makes modern games possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unreal Engine 5 is slated to be one of the best tools for modern game development in 2026. It\u2019s free to download and has a range of 3D scans from across the world to utilise in your own game development.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re thinking of developing your own game, the engine used to create CyberPunk 2077 might be your answer. To run Unreal Engine, you\u2019ll need a well-optimised PC that can handle the development of a 3D space in real-time.

Later in the game you also play as Damiane and Oongka who have their own unique specialisations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Crimson Desert multiplayer, co-op, or single player?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Crimson Desert is a single-player open-world fantasy RPG with no multiplayer capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Crimson Desert a Soulslike game?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Crimson Desert is very much its own game with a multitude of ways to fight.
