Kakao Games and Pearl Abyss have announced that a dedicated PvP server will be coming soon with new rules that “negate the karma loss players normally receive after killing another player”. The goal is to bring open-world PvP to the forefront on this server. Feedback was provided by the Russian community after a recent test period. The PvP server will be live once this week’s maintenance is complete.

Kakao Games and Pearl Abyss are answering the pleas of Black Desert Online players in Spanish-speaking countries. The Kakao localization department is already working away and more help is being hired to speed up the process. In addition, Kakao promises that native-speaking GMs will be added to the staff list to better assist Spanish-speaking customers.

Players who love co-op group challenges will want to check out Black Desert Online after its next update to try out Savage Rift. It is a new defense mode with 8-10 players working to defend the Sealed Tower from increasingly large waves of enemies. Each rift features 25 waves that grow more challenging over time. Players will need to be level 56 in order to participate. The last wave is, of course, a field boss.

During this week’s Gamescom, attendees will be able to get a hands on look at a playable demo of Black Desert Online for the XBox One X. Players will be able to try out the Warrior, Ranger, Witch and Striker using various XBox One “family” devices including XBox One X, XBox One S and Xbox One.

Black Desert Online players will have a lot to look forward to at the conclusion of today’s maintenance.

Items include Fine Accessory Boxes, Advice of Valks, Shakatu’s Seals and more.
