The Twins and Major P-3 from Atomic Heart Congratulate Pearl Abyss on Crimson Desert's Release
Mundfish, the studio behind the popular game Atomic Heart, joined in the excitement for the highly anticipated launch of Crimson Desert. The developers decided to celebrate the release of Pearl Abyss's new MMORPG by unveiling a special congratulatory promo art piece.
The artwork features Atomic Heart's iconic characters — the two Twins and Major "P-3" Nechaev — extending their well wishes:
"Congratulations Pearl Abyss on the release of Crimson Desert. Good luck in Pywel!"
Despite this celebratory gesture from fellow developers, initial player reviews for Crimson Desert on Steam have been "mixed." Users have reported concerns regarding the control scheme, certain game design choices, and the overall content of the game.
