Crimson Desert Update 1.000.675 Released as Third Patch Download
While we expected Pearl Abyss to release a hotfix or two for the Chartering the Unknown DLC for Crimson Desert, we didn’t expect them to release this much, this soon.
Aside from today’s hotfix, another one has been pushed out and it will appear as Crimson Desert update 1.000.675, and it’s out on PS5 and PC.
Players should expect another round of fixes in today’s download.
