The preview video, which runs approximately 6 minutes and 30 seconds, introduces a portion of the new story centered on Cliff, Unka, and Damian. Additionally, when exploring the seas, players will start by building a ship using resources gathered to venture out onto the open ocean, and it appears they’ll also be able to customize the ship they’ve built.

On the islands you visit, you can build a base with members of the Gray Mane in tow. While the base serves as a hub to expand your exploration range, hostile forces also exist at sea, leading to naval battles.

Away from the battles, in your daily life in Faiwell, you can even marry someone you’ve grown close to. Together with your “Gray Mane” companions, you can run a shop, deciding what to sell and how to operate it while building the shop’s reputation. You can also make a liberated castle your home and decorate the interior to your liking.

The latest DLC for *Red Desert*, “Journey into the Unknown,” is scheduled for release on October 30 at 7:00 AM for PC (Steam, Epic Games Store, Microsoft Store), PS5, and XBOX Series X|S. The base game is required to play this DLC.
