The initial reaction on Steam was unexpectedly cold, which quickly affected the stock market. At the moment when some players began to openly complain, and the reviews did not reach the expected level, Pearl Abyss recorded a noticeable drop in share value.
However, the developers quickly got to work. The studio regularly releases updates, improving key gameplay elements and adapting the project to the needs of the community. Thanks to this, Crimson Desert has begun to regain its position not only on the Valve platform, but also in the eyes of investors.
Now everything looks much better. The game is systematically correcting the situation on Steam and can already boast "mostly positive" reviews – 77%, and Pearl Abyss shares have grown by more than 27%. This is a clear signal that the market has begun to look at the project much more favorably than a few days ago.
The latest sales results have also become an important detail for investors. Crimson Desert reached the mark of 3 million copies in just 5 days. The result helps to calm the mood around one of the loudest premieres of recent months.
