Pearl Abyss's Red Desert, Targeting the Global Market

Developing Red Desert with Black Desert's Success Experience and Know-How
Demo Session Scheduled at Gamescom 2024

Pearl Abyss will showcase its new open-world action-adventure title, "Red Desert," at Gamescom 2024, held in Germany starting from the 21st of next month.

According to Pearl Abyss on the 30th, they will open a B2C booth at Gamescom 2024 on the 21st of next month, providing an opportunity to directly experience Red Desert.

Red Desert is the sequel to Black Desert, developed using the next-generation game engine "BlackSpace Engine." It is an open-world action-adventure game being developed with the goal of simultaneous global release on console and PC platforms.

Last year, a new gameplay video was revealed at the Gamescom pre-event "ONL (Opening Night Live)," receiving high praise from global media. North American gaming media outlet GamesRadar reported, "The Red Desert trailer showcased unbelievably stunning gameplay scenes, capturing the full attention of the ONL audience."

Pearl Abyss's unique technological capabilities further raise expectations for Red Desert. Through its proprietary game engine, Pearl Abyss can quickly incorporate new technologies, respond flexibly and immediately to development situations, and present the game across various platforms. Based on the BlackSpace Engine, it offers realistic yet beautifully rendered graphics and animations, providing a rich, lifelike experience in a vast open world virtual space.

To realize the vivid action seen in the video, Pearl Abyss utilized cutting-edge technology equipment such as motion capture and 3D scanning. Equipped with state-of-the-art tools comparable to those of large overseas developers, they can produce games of the highest quality.

The scale of the motion capture studio operated by Pearl Abyss is also top-tier. With over 120 motion capture cameras, the space captures diverse motions in detail, enabling action sequences at a cinematic level. Professional actors reside on-site for efficient work, and experts in fields such as Taekwondo and wrestling are invited for filming as needed.

A Pearl Abyss representative stated, "We are preparing the new title 'Red Desert,' which will mark another leap forward for the company by utilizing systematic console development." They added, "Since it is developed with the accumulated know-how from Black Desert, excellent talent, and a next-generation engine, you can expect high quality."
