Pearl Abyss releases Title Update 1.15.00 for Steam with combat and visual fixes
The patch arrives on Steam, where the client will automatically download the update files. Pearl Abyss shared the full patch notes to detail the specific changes, ensuring transparency about what was broken and how it was repaired. This direct communication helps players understand the scope of the fixes before they restart their sessions.
Combat mechanics receive targeted corrections, including a fix for the Wyvern summoning bug that previously failed during midair actions. The developers also corrected the Aerial Roll distance following an Aerial Maneuver, which should improve combat fluidity. Camera behavior gets a tweak to prevent it from remaining zoomed in while swimming in specific locations, and boss transparency glitches during battles are now resolved.
Visual and UI issues see significant attention, particularly with HDR enabled, where the patch resolves UI transparency and color problems. Crosshair visibility for the Axiom Force ability is fixed when used outside its activation range, and character posture while riding mounts looks more natural. The update also improves localization quality across all languages, addressing text errors that may have confused non-English speakers.
Several gameplay and progression bugs are patched, such as gear lock status not saving for Oongka and Damiane classes and player attack inability while riding a quest bear. The Mace of Ambition has been relocated for easier acquisition, and large fish no longer disappear when collected from fish traps. We looked at the last Crimson Desert update earlier while tracking these recurring balance and stability themes.
