Last week,Black Desert Onlinedeveloper Pearl Abyss teased three brand new games for PC and consoles:Crimson Desert, DokeV, andPlan 8. They are all pretty different from each other, and their development teams feature some notable alumni from Pearl Abyss and other games likeCounter-StrikeandRYL Online. Pearl Abyss Connect 2019 recently took place at G-Star 2019, so the developer and publisher gave us our first true look atCrimson Desert, DokeV, andPlan 8.
To start, Crimson Desert’s trailer gives us a nice look at the MMORPG’s world, characters, and story. We now know thatCrimson Desertwill follow a man named Macduff and his band of mercenaries as they try to survive in the war-torn continent of Pywell. It looks likeBlack Desert Onlinemerged withGame of ThronesandThe Witcher, so if you are a fan of any of those properties this is probably an MMO to keep your eye on. Check out its in-engine trailer below:
Next up isDokeV, and its reveal trailer follows through on Pearl Abyss' statement to DualShockers, which said that it would be aPokemon-esque collectible MMORPG. Pearl Abyss' new summary ofDokeVconfirms that this title “revolves around the unique creatures called Dokebi that grow and gain power from people’s dreams. An open-world filled with adventure built on Pearl Abyss' next-generation proprietary game engine awaits!” IfPokemon Sword and Shieldaren’t your cup of tea, maybe this will be. Watch the game’s reveal trailer below:
Finally, we havePlan 8, which is an MMO shooter with input from one of Counter-Strike’s creators. The trailer reveals that players will be using exo-suits with unique properties to help in combat and that it will feature deadly-looking robot enemies. This title’s reveal trailer features the most gameplay out of any of today’s new trailers, and you can see it below:
All three games are being developed for PC and unspecified consoles.Crimson DesertandDokeVwill both be getting beta tests sometime in 2020 for those who want to try the games out early.
