Crimson Desert gets major 1.13 update with new gear, outfits and Abyss access

Pearl Abyss released update 1.13 for its action‑RPG Crimson Desert. The patch adds extensive new content for the three playable characters – Kliff, Oongka and Damiane – including dozens of new equipment pieces (39 new boss gear parts for Kliff and Oongka, 8 new armor sets for Damiane) and expanded dyeable outfits. Oongka and Damiane can now enter the Abyss and replay boss battles previously limited to Kliff.

Additional features include new pet behavior, fresh crafting recipes, and technical improvements such as weapons firing while moving, bug fixes for character abilities, and stability fixes for PS5. The update follows strong post‑launch engagement, with the game reaching a peak of 26,659 concurrent Steam players four months after release.

The changes reflect Pearl Abyss’s continued response to player feedback and its plan for further expansions.
