  • Play card games
  • Fistfight duels
  • Arm wrestling (standing or sitting)

We wouldn’t be surprised if more activities can be discovered in the later regions.

Indestructible weapons

Crimson Desert reminds in several ways of Zelda: Breath of the Wild or Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. For example, because you can climb almost anywhere and are only limited by your stamina. Or because of the gliding skill or the grappling hook.

Almost had the game from Pearl Abyss also adopted one of the few drawbacks of Zelda: weapons with durability that can break after a while. The good news: In the preview version, weapons are indestructible. So you can wield your favorite sword throughout the continent of Pywel forever.

Apparently left from the originally planned feature is a repair function, such as at anvils in the game world. In the preview version, you could still use them, but they probably have a comparable function to whetstones: they sharpen your weapons and tools. How this will be in the final version remains to be seen.
