Game developer Pearl Abyss is seeing a strong early performance in the market following the announcement of the release schedule for the downloadable content (DLC) of its new title, 'Crimson Desert Enhanced.'
As of 10:40 a.m. on September 4, shares of Pearl Abyss were trading at 34,100 won, up 3,300 won (10.18%) from the previous trading day, according to the Korea Exchange.
The surge in Pearl Abyss's stock price is attributed to the announcement that the first DLC, titled 'Journey into the Unknown,' will be officially released on October 16. The DLC will be available exclusively for digital download at a price of 27,800 won.
Users who already own 'Crimson Desert Enhanced' on PlayStation 5 (PS5) and Xbox Series X|S will receive a 10% discount. Pre-orders are available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, as well as on PC platforms Steam and Epic Games Store.
A key feature of 'Journey into the Unknown' is the expansion of the exploration area from land to sea. Players will be able to navigate their own ships to explore unknown islands and underwater environments, facing new enemies along the way. Housing content, including the creation of living spaces and facility rentals, will also see significant enhancements.
Market analysts suggest that the expansion of content through the DLC for the enhanced version of 'Crimson Desert' is laying the groundwork for the long-term success of the intellectual property (IP). There is growing optimism that the initial momentum will be strengthened with simultaneous service across major global console and PC platforms.
