At the Black Desert fiesta, developer Pearl Abyss announced new information about the new class Archer. The Archer will be available worldwide for all players simultaneously in December and can awaken from the start.
Even before the release of Black Desert, players got a first glimpse of the class in trailers. However, it took a total of 4 years for the fan-favorite Archer to finally be playable. Now, Pearl Abyss surprises fans in Europe and the USA with good news.
Archer will be released worldwide at the same time
Until now: Until now, it has always been the case with Black Desert that players in Europe and the USA had to wait several months for new content.
South Korean players could always try new classes and regions first. For many players in the West, the content felt somewhat outdated by the time it finally arrived.
Especially with the last expansion Drieghan, many players didn’t really feel excited, as they had already seen the content sufficiently in South Korean gameplay.
When will the Archer be released? But with the new class, Black Desert is taking a different approach. The Archer will be available for all Black Desert players worldwide on December 12, 2018.
The Archer is a pure ranged class
This is the new class: The new class is equipped with a crossbow and a magical glove. With the crossbow, he can shoot magical arrows and use further abilities through the glove.
The Archer himself plays very agilely and hops around his enemies while attacking them with projectiles.
The new class is a fan-favorite. Players have been waiting for the Archer for four years.
Archer can awaken immediately: In addition to a global release, Pearl Abyss surprises players with another announcement. The new class Archer will have access to their powerful awakening abilities from the very start.
“Awakening” is a process that players can initiate from level 56. In the process, the class gains access to a new weapon and a new set of skills. The awakening skills are very powerful.
In the embedded video above, you can get a first look at the Archer and his awakening weapon longbow.
