This is the ultimate in online RPGs.

This is what online RPGs are all about" - that's how popular the PC game "Black Desert" has become. The game was launched in South Korea in 2014. Since then, the game has transcended national borders to become a favorite among fans in many countries. In Japan, the game was selected as one of the BEST GAME in the "WebMoney Award 2017," and its popularity has remained unshakeable.


It has been four years since the PC version of "Black Desert," which has gained tremendous support, began service. Finally, the smartphone version, "Black Desert MOBILE," was officially released on February 26, 2019!



On the day of its release, an offline event was held at Shibuya Modi, showing the presence of "Black Desert MOBILE" as an "RPG for a new era", and as we move into 2019, it has already become a title that cannot be missed. I will be delivering the charms and key points of the game that I have actually played and sensed!


What is the Black Desert, an immersive MMORPG with 15 million players?


Before we talk about "Black Desert MOBILE," we must first mention the PC version of "Black Desert," the game on which it is based.


Since its launch, the online PC game has evolved over the years to include new character classes, new areas, and new bosses, and is currently played in more than 150 countries. The game is currently being played in more than 150 countries. Two of the most noteworthy features of this well-known game are its "powerful and exhilarating action" and "rich and deep lifestyle elements.



The flashy action that is unleashed by the combination of commands in battle is worth seeing. However, in order to master the numerous skills, it is necessary to complete battles and quests. Many players will probably spend a lot of time playing the game in order to master the powerful and beautifully crafted skills.


The second appeal of the game is its "rich and profound lifestyle elements. The second appeal of the game is its "rich and deep lifestyle elements," which are realized in the game's expansive worldview.



You can hire workers for production activities, or develop a base of operations and engage in trade activities. The game also creates a realistic lifestyle with an overwhelming degree of freedom, as the accumulation of "knowledge" expands the range of quests that can be chosen.


The game's action-packed, reality-driven systems are unique to the game space. We will now take a closer look at the reality of "Black Desert MOBILE" and how it is incorporated into this mobile version!


An unlimited range of choices! High-quality character creation for an outstanding immersive experience!


When you start up the game, the first thing that appears is the character class selection screen, where you can choose your preferred fighting style from among five options.


There are five classes with different characteristics, such as "Warrior" and "Witch.


Incidentally, three data saves are possible from the first stage. Let's try the five classes first and look forward to the release of even more new classes in the future.


After selecting a class, the next step is character creation. This is one of the highlights of this work, which offers a high degree of freedom! It is possible to adjust the eyes, cheeks, hair shade, and of course, the detailed size of each part of the body. Those who are not good at character making can also use the preset characters that are provided from the beginning. One of these characters is modeled after former "Nogizaka46" member Nanase Nishino.


The fine-tuning of the making of the character allows the user to create his or her own alter ego!


One of the main attractions of this game is that you can play as a character that looks exactly like Ms. Nishino!



Grow with each and every choice you make. A sense of your own unique presence in the world of "Black Desert"!


Once you have finished making your character, the new "Black Desert" begins! As is typical of an open-world MMORPG, there were many other players in the first town.


At first, we followed the game's instructions and took on various missions. During this process, the player learns not only simple controls, but also the knowledge necessary to progress, such as skill explanations and training.


Acquire the know-how of operation and start your journey as an adventurer!


We have mentioned several times about the "high degree of freedom," but this is not limited to character creation.


Take character development, for example.

Character level and skill development is a common element in other games as well, but in this game, there is one more element: "black aura" development.



The "black aura" is a kind of navigation system. It is a good companion who provides explanations on how to operate the game and shows the player, who wakes up in the first town after losing his memory, the path he should take in the story.


By encouraging his growth, the player's own fighting ability improves. In addition, the potential of equipment can be unlocked, further broadening the scope of the game.


However, the mobile version does not necessarily require the same specifications as the PC version. There is a big difference in capacity between a PC and a smartphone, so there is a limit to the amount of data that can be implemented. In such a situation, "Black Desert MOBILE" was released.


The first thing to note about "Black Desert MOBILE" is that the tutorial progression is very smooth, and I felt that it was designed to be easy for beginners.



The tutorial does not start forcibly once the player starts the game, but rather, when a new operation becomes necessary, the tutorial explains it to the player as needed, allowing the player to enjoy the "high degree of freedom" that is the true appeal of MMORPGs from the very beginning of the game to the very end. The player can enjoy the "high degree of freedom" that is the best part of MMORPGs to the fullest. Of course, the game also has an auto-battle function for those who are not good at battles or have limited time.


The exhilarating battle presentation is still there!


Developing unique skills for each class is one of the most challenging elements!


A "power-saving mode" that takes into account the battery consumption of smartphones has also been implemented.


With more than 1 million people pre-registered, "Black Desert MOBILE" has a solid track record on the PC version.

As a gamer, I can't help but look forward to seeing how the game will develop in the future with high expectations.
