Crimson Desert: How many chapters?
Updated · Patch history
There are 12 chapters plus a prologue. Game8's main-quest archive and Rock Paper Shotgun's main-quest list both stop at chapter 12. The names I am willing to print are: Prologue Dead of Night, 1 The First Encounter, 2 Golden Greed, 3 Howling Hill, 4 The Price of Knowledge, 5 Guest Unbidden, 6 Cracks in the Shield, 7 Homecoming, 8 Blood Coronation on Game8 and Healing Pailune on RPS, 9 The Sage of the Desert, 10 Counterattack, 11 Truth and Reality, 12 The Abyss.
