Crimson Desert may have been met with mixed reviews at launch, but developers at Pearl Abyss have been hard at work, officially announcing a brand-new update at Gamescom today with a trove of new content including fresh cutscenes, voiceover languages, story details, and more.

Crimson Desert Enhanced is available now at a 20% discount, and can be downloaded entirely for free if you already own the game.

More to come.
