Crimson Desert has received its first update to coincide with the game’s release. After years of anticipation, Crimson Desert has finally arrived, but the response to it so far has been mixed. While some are in love with its vast open-world and diverse combat mechanics, others have been running into some initial bugs and performance issues that are hampering the experience. Fortunately, developer Pearl Abyss is working quickly to squash some of these problems that have come up for players.
As of this moment, Crimson Desert update version 1.00.02 has dropped across PC and PS5 platforms. The patch primarily addressed various issues that have been discovered in relation to certain quests, bosses, and skills. Pearl Abyss has also noted a handful of other errors that it’s currently aware of that it will look to resolve soon.
Currently, this inaugural update for Crimson Desert hasn’t come to Xbox, Mac, or PC via the Epic Games Store. Instead, the same patch for these platforms is said to be arriving “at a later time.” As such, if you’re playing the game across any of these avenues, don’t expect the issues outlined in this update to be rectified just yet.
