For Adventurers who have already developed their Winter Season class, we're readying an additional 'Fughar’s Timepiece' so that you can try out Maegu and enjoy the season server benefits.
[Find out more about Fughar’s Timepiece]
 

For those Adventurers who received a Fughar’s Timepiece from Fughar,
we hope you enjoy the new class on the Season Servers.

However, since the character that used the timepiece item will need to obtain new equipment, we’ll be adding Narchillan Gear (3 weapons & 4 defense gear) to the Winter season graduation rewards.
(* This is limited to the Winter Season.)

 
We wish you many more exciting adventures with Woosa and Maegu!

Maegu, available in the world of Black Desert on January 18 (Wed)!

A world of winter, where everything as far as the eye can see is covered in snow.


In this place, all are one.


The snow hides all boundaries; there is no division.




High-rising castles that pierce the sky.

Squalid shacks that lay hidden in their shadows...

Dazzling beauty or festering wounds...

In the winterland where all are buried in clothes, all are the same.




Who will arrive first...


My frozen heart stopped eons ago, but the guests have arrived.




Ah, the 6 witches who rocked the foundations of the Mountain of Eternal Winter enter the Winterland Ball.


Furthermore, the entourage of Adventurers following the legends of the six witches appear.


Come all, let’s drink from the cup of the seventh witch Erethea!




All the broken relationships of the past freeze and break.


Yesterday’s foe becomes today’s friend, and together we dance hand in hand.


A dance that won’t stop till the golden mountain gleams bright, shedding its eternal snow cap.




The feel of the red blood beating from your finger to the sound of your hot breath

Warm enough to melt the bleak midwinter, unlike us.

Share that warmth.

You can’t think of leaving, even if you freeze.

There are no memories in oblivion’s labyrinth.




So for today, shall we dance together in merriment at the inescapable ball?


Hand-in-hand, let us dance the Winterland Soiree, forever and a day.

Players' Choice Most Improved MMO of 2022: Black Desert Online

Black Desert Online has taken home the Players' Choice Most Improved MMO for the second year in a row thanks to its plethora of free updates to the MMORPG throughout the year. This year saw not only the recently released Woosa class, but also the latest expansion, Mountain of Eternal Winter. This expansion brought a new class, the Drakania, earlier in the year, as well as additions to the co-op dungeon, Atoraxxion. 2023 already looks interesting, with the Maegu coming in January, while the next expansion region, Land of the Morning Light, looks to shake up how Pearl Abyss builds zones in the future.

2022 has been a year of “togetherness” — so, we want to take this moment to once again express our sincere gratitude to everyone who made their mark in the world of Black Desert.

We hope you have a wonderful holiday with the new winter season and the newly released, Woosa!

“Woosa” is the younger of Black Desert’s Twin Classes. Hailing from the Land of the Morning Light, her traditional Korean outfit exemplifies this by mixing a traditional Korean outfit with a slight dash of modernity. The coloring of the outfit also expresses her personality, as the dark colors radiate the calmness and strength of Woosa’s personality. With that said though, the garment itself is relatively soft and breezy, taking on the traditional materials used for hanbok.

Maegu is the older twin sister of Woosa.
If you were to say that Woosa radiates strength and calmness, then Maegu’s gumiho concept is the opposite. Her fascinating characteristics are exemplified in her overall outfit, which displays bright colors with sheer red accents.

Maegu uses “Horyeongbu”, or a Foxspirit Charm, as her weapon, to use magical attacks that disrupt and mislead her opponents.

The Land of the Morning Light was modeled after the Joseon Dynasty, the last dynastic kingdom of Korea.
The setting of the Land of the Morning Light is based off various folktales and legends passed down from ancient times to modern times.

Today's update introduces Atoraxxion's third biome: Yolunakea. If Vahmalkea's theme can be called "desert" and Sycrakea's the "deep sea," Yolunakea's theme is that of a "sunlit forest" – designed to present a completely different atmosphere from the other two biomes.

• Explore Yolunakea's main questline alongside Yaz of the Secret Guards to gain insight into the story of Yolu, the architect of the biome.
