Demo availability differs by platform

Crimson Desert will offer a time-limited demo on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles, but the availability and cost vary depending on the platform. The demo allows players to experience up to five hours of the full game before it ends on January 6.

Xbox demo is free and open to all

On Xbox Series consoles, the demo is free and does not require a subscription to access. This makes it more accessible for Xbox players who want to try the game without additional costs.

PlayStation 5 demo requires a subscription

In contrast, the PlayStation 5 version of the demo is part of the PlayStation Plus Premium service. This means only users who have a subscription to PlayStation Plus Premium can access the demo on PS5.

Game receives first major DLC

Crimson Desert has recently launched its first major downloadable content (DLC) package, following several significant free updates that expanded the game's features and story.

Demo includes save data transfer

Players who try the demo can transfer their save data to the full version of the game, allowing them to continue their progress once they purchase the complete game. The game is currently available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series consoles.
