Crimson Desert, the action-adventure game developed by Pearl Abyss, is now set to release in Q1 2026, delayed from late 2025. The studio cited delays in offline distribution, voice-overs, and console certification as reasons for the postponement. This marks the game's second delay since its initial reveal in 2019, when it was first scheduled for 2021. The developers emphasized that this decision aims to ensure a successful launch and have confirmed an internal release date, to be announced later.
"The launch of Crimson Desert, our first large-scale AAA console game, has been unavoidably delayed by one quarter, from the previously announced schedule."
"This is due to longer than expected timelines arising from schedule coordination and collaborations with multiple partners for offline distribution, voice-overs, console certification, and other launch preparations."
