Pearl Abyss has revealed that Crimson Desert will arrive on PS5 next month without selectable difficulty settings, meaning players should expect a demanding experience from the outset. The developer is beginning to answer lingering questions about its ambitious open-world title, but difficulty customization won't be among the options at launch.

  • No difficulty modes at launch: Crimson Desert will not offer adjustable difficulty settings when it releases on PS5 next month.
  • Pearl Abyss fielding questions: The studio has started clarifying several major aspects of the game as the release date approaches.
  • Challenging design intent: Early details suggest the game is designed to present a tougher-than-average experience rather than catering to an easy-mode audience.
  • Unclear post-launch plans: There’s no definitive word yet on whether difficulty options or accessibility features will be added after release.
