South Korean Prime Minister Praises Crimson Desert for Boosting National Gaming Industry
Crimson Desert, a video game developed by Pearl Abyss, has achieved significant success, selling over four million units worldwide shortly after its release. This achievement has drawn praise from South Korea's Prime Minister, Kim Min-seok, who highlighted the game's role in advancing the country's gaming industry. The Prime Minister emphasized that Crimson Desert represents a 'new chapter in K-content,' showcasing the potential of South Korean games on global platforms, including consoles. The game is noted for its use of in-house technology and cultural elements such as South Korean food and taekwondo, distinguishing it from other games that rely on Western game engines. This success follows other notable achievements in the South Korean gaming sector, such as the game Lies of P by Neowiz and Stellar Blade, which have also gained international recognition.
