Crimson Desert Continues To Reach New Sales Heights

The RPG Crimson Desert from developer Pearl Abyss continues to put up strong sales numbers. The Korean studio has now confirmed that Crimson Desert has passed 4 million in sales.

That's up from 2 million sales in the game's first 24 hours and 3 million in sales after less than a week. "Thank you to all the Greymanes who have been a part of this journey with us and for all of your incredible love and support," Pearl Abyss said of the new sales milestone.

Crimson Desert released on March 19, and Pearl Abyss has released numerous updates since then to address issues and fan feedback. One of the biggest updates replaced AI-generated art that fans noticed. Pearl Abyss hasn't fixed or addressed everything, though, as fans are still irked by the game's inventory management. On the more positive side, fans have discovered all kinds of cool stuff in the game, including the best drip and how NPCs will do work for you.

GameSpot's Crimson Desert review scored the game a 7/10. Reviewer Richard Wakeling said, in a review published before notable updates were released, "Crimson Desert's spectacular open world and thrilling combat are only let down by a few narrative and quality-of-life issues."
