The Black Desert Mobile global launch has been announced by Pearl Abyss. After the underwhelming reveal that the soft launch was limited to select countries, the ambitious mobile game is finally releasing worldwide in December. Better still, you can get Black Desert Online for free on PC just by pre-registering for Black Desert Mobile.
Black Desert Mobile is one of the most successful mobile MMORPGs, amassing a relevant amount of revenue that helped developer Pearl Abyss purchase EVE Online creator CCP Games. Black Desert Online is also going strong, with the recent launch of the Great Expedition update giving a much-needed boost to the sea exploration side of the game.

One of the good things that came with the Black Desert Mobile soft launch was that those who could play it wouldn't be subjected to a wipe. This means that they could keep their progress without fear of losing their beloved character and carefully crafted gear.
Pearl Abyss has the Black Desert Mobile global launch set for December 11, as revealed on its official Facebook page. You'll be able to play in one of many languages, including English, French, German, Spanish, Chinese, Indonesian, Russian, and more.
The Black Desert Mobile global launch will feature five classes, a far cry from the current 16 classes available on PC. You can choose between the Warrior, Ranger, Valkyrie, Giant, and Witch classes.
While Black Desert Mobile may seem like essentially the PC game recreated for handheld devices, it's much more than that. For starters, the amazing character creation system is nearly the same as the one from the original game, and the world remains as impressive as we've experienced before, thanks to the proprietary engine.
You can pre-register to play in roughly a month from the Play Store and the App Store. The official website has more info on Black Desert Mobile.
