Pearl Abyss launches Crimson Desert 1.07 patch with boss rematches
Pearl Abyss released the Crimson Desert version 1.07 update on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox platforms (the Mac App Store version is still pending). The patch expands the boss‑rematch system, adding five new repeatable bosses – Muskan, Corrupted Caliburn, Goyen, Draven the Crowcaller and Clockwork White Horn – with locations listed in the in‑game journal.
New unarmed combat skills are introduced: Damiane receives several fist attacks, both Damiane and Oongka gain the “Aerial Stab” move, and Kliff gets the “Blinding Flash Finisher”. The mount system also receives new wolf and bear types and reins for certain rides. A critical GPU crash affecting AMD driver 26.5.1 is fixed, along with numerous quest, NPC, item and animation bugs. The patch also resolves a visual clipping issue that briefly altered Damiane’s Elegant Carmine Leather Armor.
Pearl Abyss highlighted the commercial success of Crimson Desert – 5 million copies sold within a month, March revenue of roughly US$178 million, and a forecast of over half a billion dollars by the end of 2026 – and confirmed that DLC and further expansions are being explored.
