Pearl Abyss released the latest update for Crimson Desert<\/em> on Monday, issuing a long list of new content, bug fixes, and quality of life changes. The 1.06 update arrives just days after Crimson Desert<\/em>‘s previous patch, and includes a few surprises.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
One of those surprises is a new claw machine game at the Laughing Marionette, which includes the following obtainable items: 12 types of lighting items, 1 type of chair, 1 type of special headgear, Abyss Artifacts, and Abyss Gears. There’s also a long list of mounts that can be tamed, and players can ride a variety of beasts, including wolves, bears, warthogs, camels, kuku birds, lions, tigers, and even iguanas.<\/p>\n
Crimson Desert<\/em>‘s latest update also adds an extraction feature that lets players recover materials used in refinement, which should make the grind to fully upgrade equipment much faster.<\/p>\nPearl Abyss has been releasing updates at a breakneck pace since Crimson Desert<\/em>‘s launch in mid-March. For the latest additions and fixes, read the full patch notes (via Pearl Abyss) below. The update for Crimson Desert<\/em> has rolled out to all platforms (PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X) as of Monday.<\/p>\n\n<\/p>\n
