MMORPG ‘Black Desert’ Announced for PS4 and Coming West in 2019

During the second annual Into the Abyss event at E3 2019, Developer Pearl Abyss announced that their MMORPG Black Desert will be headed to PlayStation 4 in 2019.

Following the success of the game’s launch on PC and Xbox One in the west, with 20 million registered users worldwide, PS4 owners can soon jump in and experience this MMORPG for themselves. Pre-orders for the title begin on July 2, which will include options for early access to the full game as well as in-game rewards.

“Our team has been working diligently to make Black Desert the best that it can be, and we’re finally ready to reward our patient player base,” said Kwangsam Kim, Lead Producer of Black Desert at Pearl Abyss. “If you’ve been looking for an open-world action MMORPG on the PS4 with deep personalization to fit your gameplay experience, we encourage you to pre-order this July.”

Bundles for the PS4 version were not revealed, but they will most likely resemble the Xbox One edition, which allows players to purchase various tiers for extra items at launch. The PS4 version has been optimized for the console and will display 4K resolution for PS4 Pro.

Additionally, Black Desert Mobile will be launching globally in 2019 for iOS and Android. The game is currently only available in South Korea, Japan, Taiwan.

More information regarding both titles will be released soon.
