Alex first caught site of Crimson Desert at CES 2026 at the AMD booth - and what he saw was impressive. Since then, DF has maintained a dialogue with Pearl Abyss with a view to delivering the best coverage possible and that begins today with just a taste of what is to come: a high level overview of the game's technology, powered by the BlackSpace Engine, seen here running at native 4K targeting 60fps on ultra settings on a machine powered by a Ryzen 9 7900X3D paired with 32GB of system memory and a Radeon RX 7900 XTX.
