It seems that adventurers are not done exploring The Land of the Morning Light, as Black Desert announced a new region for the area, as well as a new class and more during this weekend's Calpheon Ball.
Over the weekend in Korea, Pearl Abyss hosted its annual Calpheon Ball event, which saw adventurers gather to learn what is coming for the long-running MMO. Last year's Ball, which took place in Los Angeles, saw the reveal of the Twin Classes Woosa and Maegu, as well as the first details of what would become the MMO's next expansion, The Land of the Morning Light.
This year, Pearl Abyss announced that our adventures in the Joseon-era-inspired location aren't over, as a new region of the island was revealed: Seoul. According to the translation of the stream by Black Desert Foundry, the new region is «inspired by the main royal palace of the Joseon Dynasty,» and it seems that Pearl Abyss is taking the same zeal it had building the first region with Seoul.
As with The Land of the Morning Light proper, Seoul's inclusion will be based on Korean history and folklore, with even the new region's landscape and villages being built with historical references in mind. New weapons are also being introduced with the new region: Fallen God Tier weapons, which will be higher in tier than the current top tier weapon, PEN Blackstar.
The Calpheon Ball also detailed quite a few quality-of-life changes coming to Black Desert, from streamlining Magnus travel to reduce the number of loading screens to simplifying items to help reduce inventory clutter. A new inventory management tab is coming, as well as an all-in-one inventory preset to make organizing a bit easier and straightforward.
