On schedule, Pearl Abyss has released its latest weekly update for Crimson Desert, introducing a range of new features and expanding on existing systems. Two of the biggest changes revolve around Damiane and Oongka – they can equip Visione and access different memories, scattered throughout Pywel.
Furthermore, they can also use Blackstar as a mount. These make it that much easier to play either character without having to awkwardly shift back to Kliff, especially in the late to post-game.
The development has also expanded on house decoration, and we don’t mean by just adding 58 new items (though that’s obviously welcome). It’s now possible to decorate your house’s immediate surroundings. Furthermore, a Loom and Workstation have been added to specific locations to assist in item crafting, which is how you’ll be unlocking the new house items.
Other neat additions include five new headgear pieces and a new set of armor – the Greymane Light Armor – for Kliff. Meanwhile, Damiane gets the Honorary Greymane Cloth Gloves – a nice touch, considering her role in the story.
Check out some of the patch notes below and full details here. Of course, this is far from the end, as Pearl Abyss has more updates lined up until September and DLC in the works.
