Crimson Desert has been on a slow-rolling takeover of online gamer hype. Months of new footage and features trickling out, capped off by a recent glowing pre-release assessment by Digital Foundry, has players excited but also worried that the hyper-polished-looking, sprawling open-world adventure game from a studio known for MMOs might be too good to be true. Underlining that concern is the recent news that the review embargo for Crimson Desert is only 24 hours before launch, and outlets that have received code have been told they can only get code for the PC version. Is this another Cyberpunk 2077 situation?
