Crimson Desert

Anybody else looking forward to this game? It looks like it's trying to combine the same kind of exploration as Breath of the Wild (climbing, gliding, discoveries on multiple levels, etc) with a more realistic world and setting like The Witcher 3. There's no official release date yet, but they're saying late 2025 right now. This is probably my most anticipated game this year. What do you guys think?

The video clip is giving me Tears of the Kingdom vibes. Looks interesting I have it on my list of games to follow.

Can't imagine why...

Both characters are definitely adrenaline junkies.

I will check it out as long as I don't have to spend hours crafting items and whatnot. I absolutely hated Tears of the Kingdom and thought that game would have benefitted using the less is more approach. Anyway, this game looks interesting, I will keep an eye out for it.

Crimson Desert finally got an official release date. Assuming it doesn't get delayed (and considering how games are developed these days, that's a distinct possibility) it's going to come out on March 19 next year.

Definitely high on my most wanted list!

The way they've been building it up, it's either going to rival GTA 6 as THE big game of 2026, or it'll be another Cyberpunk/No Man's Sky.

I just found this update video on YouTube. My hype for this game just keeps getting bigger. It really does look like someone made Tears of the Kingdom in The Witcher 3's world. Can't wait for March 19th!

Very high on my list still. If they solve the pacing issues prevalent in open world titles it will be a banger. Looks like TOTK meets Elden Ring meets Kingdom of Amalur.
