Crimson Desert‘s first correct enlargement, not be confused with any of the ten million issues Pearl Abyss have added to their huge expanse of stuff to do via free updates, is about to launch subsequent month. It is referred to as Charting the Unknown, is out on October fifteenth, and appears to be set into a brand new realm stuffed with extra recreation mechanics you have seen elsewhere shoved collectively to fill an enormous open world.
Revealed throughout right this moment’s PlayStation State of Play, alongside a tonne of stuff which is not coming to PC as a result of Sony hate us now, Charting the Unknown seems like extra Crimson Desert in each sense of the phrase.
Bearded boringman protagonist Kliff is off to a hidden land past the Crimson Desert. “Legend is numerous folks fell there way back, turning the sands crimson with their blood,” somebody tells him. HANG ON A MINUTE. Would not that make this hidden land one other crimson desert, one past the present crimson desert of Crimson Desert? How? Wha…? Am I dropping it? Has the Pink Pudding recreation been the one to lastly scramble my mind?
Not if I am deciphering the trailer accurately, it hasn’t. One factor I can say for sure is that Charting the Unknown has witches in it. They’re collectively sensing ominous stuff stirring on this second crimson desert of Crimson Desert and at one level Kliff appears to suggest to 1 with a bunch of flowers, presumably hinting at marriage or romance mechanics. Not daunted by this impending doom, Kliff decides to construct and enhance a mansion by way of interfaces that look an terrible lot like these of The Sims. To be truthful, if you happen to’re doing abode constructing, may as effectively copy the homework of a sequence that is lengthy been among the many finest for it. There additionally appears to be some base building-ish NPC recruitment to Kliff’s digs.
Additional on, Kliff does his finest impression of my taking part in Murderer’s Creed Black Flag Resynced and sails a frigate into an island like an out-of-depth learner driver. He can even go diving within the ocean, leaping in from the again of what seems like a flying robo-dragon no much less. The massive evil to be defeated in Charting the Unknown seems to be of the huge machine selection, with a floating multi-winged spaceship-looking creation dubbed the Abyssal Horror rocking up on the finish.
I will be trustworthy, I can not see any of it making me need to do any greater than the jog between random open world things that was my expertise of Crimson Desert’s unique crimson desert earlier this yr. Perhaps one of my colleagues will dive again in and fall in love with the Pink Pudding.
