Pearl Abyss announced today that Black Desert SEA has seen a 629% and 153% increase in new and returning daily players respectively, thanks to new content updates and sales promotions. 

This achievement is seen as a result of the combined effects of recent events and updates; the 2021 Heidel Ball, a global online user event held on June 19, was viewed by more than half a million global fans. The new Corsair class and Summer Season were also updated across the world simultaneously, and new Steam packs are currently available at a discounted price to welcome more Adventurers. 

As a result, there has been a significant increase in daily players, especially in the Southeast Asian server, hitting the second highest increase in daily new players after Thailand. Other servers such as Turkey&MENA, North America and Europe, Taiwan, and Korea have also seen a vast increase in both new and returning daily users.  

Since her launch, Corsair has received much acclaim for her lively characteristics and bold background story. Adventurers are also enjoying her unique skills, which include the ability to move at high speed across water and attack with great tidal waves. 

In addition, the Summer Season has been assisting Adventurers with growing their characters quickly. This year’s season server is relatively easier to play due to the addition of a new simplified main questline, Party Monster Zones, and the new Season Character Transfer System.  

Along with these new updates, the Black Desert team will continue to listen to the voices of Adventurers and make efforts to reflect their feedback in the game. For more information about the game, visit the official website at sea.playblackdesert.com.
