Pearl Abyss’ hotly anticipated open world action game launched across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S yesterday, March 19, and today, the Korean company announced that 2 million copies had been sold worldwide. In its announcement, Pearl Abyss said it was aware of feedback from players, and would “work to make improvements quickly.” "We are incredibly humbled to share that Crimson Desert has sold through 2 million copies worldwide," reads Pearl Abyss' statement. "Thank you so much to our fans, community, and everyone who has joined us in Pywel.
