Pearl Abyss and PLAION today announced their distribution partnership for the upcoming launch of the new IP, Crimson Desert. PLAION will lead the physical game distribution effort for Crimson Desert, leveraging their global footprint and experienced local territory teams, building on Pearl Abyss’ global presence and reputation.
Crimson Desert is an open-world action-adventure game set in the beautiful yet brutal world of Pywel. Players follow Kliff, leader of the Greymanes — a band of battle-hardened mercenaries — who must fight to save Pywel from an impending catastrophe. As they explore the vast landscapes of Pywel, players will engage in intense battles, defeat formidable monsters, collect valuable loot, and follow the story of the Greymanes’ journey with next-generation visuals.
Kevin Kim, CBO at Pearl Abyss, said, “PLAION is already proving to be a strong partner for Pearl Abyss as we continue to grow in overseas markets. Partnering with PLAION with their global footprint will allow us to bring Crimson Desert to even more fans around the world. We are pleased to partner with a physical game distributor that shares our ambitious vision of an adventure set in the beautiful yet brutal continent of Pywel.”
“We are proud to work with Pearl Abyss to bring Crimson Desert to players across the globe. Our global footprint and experienced territory teams will bring fans the incredible experience of Crimson Desert. This collaboration is a testament to PLAION’s growing commitment to and strength in the Asia Pacific region and highlights our ongoing mission to become a global force in videogame publishing,” said CEO PLAION Partners, Craig McNicol.
