Playable Demo of Crimson Desert to be Showcased at Gamescom 2025

Pearl Abyss will present the latest demonstration of Crimson Desert to players and media at two locations for Gamescom 2025 – at the world’s biggest gaming event, taking place at the Koelnmesse Exhibition Center in Cologne, Germany, from August 20th to 24th, and in Manhattan Beach, CA. All who visit either location can check out the Crimson Desert experience in the respective Entertainment Areas: Hall 06.1 | Stand B041 – A040 (Cologne) and at our booth in Manhattan Beach, CA. It will be an immersive space designed to bring the game’s rich atmosphere into our world, from the moment fans enter the booth until they have the controls in their hands to play. To ensure a pleasant and exciting performance, the demonstration will run on high-performance AMD PCs, along with Samsung Odyssey G6 and G8 monitors at both locations. Furthermore, all participants will receive exclusive Crimson Desert items. “We’re thrilled to unveil this new demonstration to the public for the first time,” said Lybee Park, CEO of Pearl Abyss Europe. “We can’t wait for fans to have these experiences we’re building. From the thematic booths at both locations to the game itself, we hope each visitor leaves feeling like a part of Crimson Desert and eager for what’s to come upon release.”
