Crimson Desert Gamescom 2024 Demo Confirmed

Pearl Abyss confirmed the much-awaited Crimson Desert game would be playable by all attendees at the Gamescom 2024 event from August 21 to 25 (from 9 AM to 8 PM CEST). Attendees can play the game at the Koelnmesse Exhibition Center in Cologne, Germany.

Crimson Desert evolves around an untold tale of mercenaries struggling to survive in the unforgiving lands of Pywel. The continent spans around 400 square kilometers, and players will become familiar with weapons and game characters and learn special skills to dodge enemy monsters.

Apart from attending the game demo, all the participants will receive exclusive Crimson Desert merchandise. Survey participants can also win prizes and awards through a raffle, such as high-end graphics cards. However, the company has not confirmed when the demo will be available to the public worldwide.

Pearl Abyss announced the Crimson Desert in 2019, along with other adventure games – PLAN 8, DokeV, and Shadow Arena. However, there has been a delay in the release date. The expected release date for Crimson Desert is the second quarter of 2025.

With a vast range of weapons – both new and old gen and countless customization options available to the players, the game will depend on what you wield, how you wield, and the type of warrior you want to be. The gameplay will be available for single and multi-player options.

Crimson Desert is expected to be available worldwide in multiple platforms including PS4, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
