Heo Jin-young, CEO of Pearl Abyss (263750.KQ), said Thursday that the company "will further strengthen live services for existing games in 2026 while devoting our best efforts to developing next titles."

Heo made the remarks at the company's annual general meeting held at its Home One headquarters in Gwacheon. "We will upgrade Crimson Desert based on user feedback and strive to make it a game loved for a long time," he said.

"Since its launch, Crimson Desert has maintained solid performance, reaching No. 1 in Steam sales, recording 240,000 peak concurrent users and selling 3 million copies within four days," Heo said. "We will quickly announce the milestone of 5 million copies sold to our shareholders, and our employees will work to deliver the best results by year-end."

He added that the company "will not neglect preparations for new titles including DokeV." He explained, "DokeV in particular is being prepared for a swift unveiling after Crimson Desert, and our goal is to disclose development progress at an appropriate time."
