Pearl Abyss shares rose almost 27% after three million copies

After a drop of about 30 percent the previous week over mixed reviews, Pearl Abyss shares rose almost 27 percent. The trigger was the official 3 million copies of Crimson Desert. Japanese-market analyst Serkan Toto called it a typical turn in Asian game stocks: panic over reviews first, then the sales figures.

The game launched on 20 March 2026 on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. Some critics scored it around 78, and purchases still moved. On social feeds the project is compared with Skyrim and Black Myth: Wukong for image and atmosphere. Those are player reactions, not a studio measurement.

The note ends on sales outweighing reviews this time. The studio promises nothing new about other platforms in the text.
