Currently holding a media event in Korea, developer Pearl Abyss announced that Black Desert will enter Closed Beta on 17th October to 23rd October, with application beginning on 1st October.
For this first public client, 4 classes will be available at a level cap of 40. 2 major areas will be there, with over 250 quests, PvP, siege, mounted combat and more ready for testing. Of course, this Closed Beta phase is more on the game’s stability rather than fully functional features.
