Black Desert Online: Land of the Morning Light Reveals Giant Serpent Boss Imoogi, and Boss Blitz Mode

mmorpg.com:

Black Desert Online’s Land of the Morning Light expansion is coming June 14th, and at today’s Summer Game Fest, Pearl Abyss debuted a brand new trailer revealing the huge new serpent boss, Imoogi.

In Land of the Morning Light, Black Desert takes us to new regions inspired by the Korean medieval Joseon era, as well as Korean myths and legends. In the brand new trailer, we get sweeping views of the new regions we’ll get to explore, some of the Joseon-inspired architecture, the residents, and, of course, some of the mystery and darkness that awaits.

We’ll get to meet tiger lord Sangoon, the Golden Pig King, and Songakshi, a vengeful ghost boss. In the trailer,  we get some clips of making the way to Songakshi and battling her. With these bosses, you'll have a lot of choices to make, because you'll be able to choose in which order you face the bosses in the nonlinear story. The storyline itself will feature 80 cutscenes, 40 vignettes, and the team has written 6,000 fully dubbed lines for this expansion.

At the end of the trailer, we finally get our first look at Imoogi, whose name in Korean translates to something like “giant snake”, and that name certainly fits. It gives yet another idea ofthe very scale of what Pearl Abyss is adding to Black Desert Online here.

Imoogi will be added after launch, and with good reason, as you will have to defeat all of the other bosses first before you can face it. Those other bosses in the trailer and in the storyline are the first challenges, but there will be lots more, as this tease proves. 

Boss Blitz is a new approach coming with Land of the Morning Light. This is also where things are more customized, and the team offers a chance to move away from making things super grindy. If you
