- Pearl Abyss confirms that the Crimson Desert DLC is in development and commits to a new content roadmap
- Upcoming content includes additions to stories, battles, and cross-save
- Expect updates during June and September 2026
Pearl Abyss continues to justify its place among the top game developers in modern gaming, with more polish and content promised for its latest open-world title.
Crimson desert has another content roadmap and DLC currently in development, as confirmed by Pearl Abyss in their ‘Dev Update’ blog post. The roadmap includes several updates to be released between June and September 2026.
Notably, these updates include numerous improvements that further enhance the open world experience, addressing community feedback in the process. Pearl Abyss is well aware of the negative feedback regarding Crimson desert‘s story and adjusts the “narrative flow of Kliff’s journey” by refining “the coherence of key scenes”.
Perhaps the biggest update among story and combat changes is the promise of cross-save compatibility, allowing players to continue playing Crimson desert where they left off between PC, PS5, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S. This should be as easy as linking your accounts across platforms.
Honestly, cross-saves from PC to console (and vice versa) aren’t as common as they should be in most games, and Pearl Abyss deserves all the credit for including the feature in its roadmap – even though it apparently wasn’t much requested by Crimson desert players.
The constant updates from Pearl Abyss since the game’s March 19 launch date is a testament to how hard-working the developers are, pushing the action-adventure epic towards its full potential. With more DLC on the way, it will be interesting to see how much it expands the map, which is already bigger than the one in it Skyrim and Red Dead Redemption 2.
Pearl Abyss still has its sights set on its next open-world game with DokeV, but that also makes it abundantly clear that the developer isn’t done with Crimson desert at all, and that only serves as good news for players.
