Crimson Desert: 11 Minutes of Brand New Gameplay – IGN First

Our IGN First for October is Pearl Abyss’ Crimson Desert – the open-world action-adventure set in the fantasy continent of Pywel. First up, we’ve got 11 minutes of brand new gameplay to show you, featuring a full quest as our hero Kliff is tasked with infiltrating a castle and taking down the burly boss at the centre of it. We’ll have plenty more Crimson Desert to show you this month ahead of its March 19, 2026 release, including plenty more gameplay and insights from the development team.
