Crimson Desert is the latest action-focused RPG from Pearl Abyss, creators of Black Desert Online and is releasing on March 19th, 2026. In this open-world, action-adventure title, you play as the Greymane Kliff exploring the land of Pywel and battling against various foes. So, we know when we will be able to purchase the game, but for all those who are already subscribed to Xbox Game Pass, there’s always one question. Is Crimson Desert on Xbox Game Pass?
Per the team at Pearl Abyss “Welcome to the open-world of Pywel, a continent filled with mystery, fantasy, and tons to discover. Visit bustling towns and quiet hamlets, venture across vast plains, deserts, and mountains, and explore forgotten ruins, shrines, and other unique landmarks of the continent’s distinct regions. Gather resources, craft, hunt, and partake in the various activities of Pywel to also aid in your journey.
The world is yours to explore as you will and there are many paths for you to uncover; ride various mounts from horses to wolves, even a dragon and machines, scale cliffsides and walls which you can leap from to glide, and go through mystical gates to find yourself in the mysterious realm known as the Abyss.” Does this sound like a bit of you? Well, let’s see if Crimson Desert is on Game Pass
