Crimson Desert Update Lets Players Hoard Up to 100 Pets, Because Why Not

Crimson Desert's latest update increases the pet registration limit to 100, lets shopkeepers resell lost rare gear, and fine-tunes the game's pinball minigame, as reported by Rock Paper Shotgun.
Pearl Abyss is leaning even harder into sandbox excess with the latest patch for Crimson Desert. According to a recent report by Mark Warren over at Rock Paper Shotgun, the sprawling open-world title now lets players register up to 100 pets as part of a new completionist challenge. While keeping a massive digital menagerie of pigeons or cats sounds like the ultimate virtual flex, there is a catch. You can only summon 50 of those animals to your camp at any given time, meaning half your feathered or furry army will have to sit out the party. It is a wonderfully chaotic addition that pushes the game further into all-encompassing sandbox territory.
Beyond the animal hoarding, the update brings a handful of diverse tweaks to the table. Players can now track baby wyverns via map icons, and secondary characters like Damiane and Oongka get to mess around with chainsaws and mining drills. In a clever economy adjustment, local shopkeepers will now gather up rare gear that players lose in the field and resell it back at hiked-up prices. Developer Pearl Abyss also managed to tweak the surprisingly popular pinball minigame, giving the physics a heavier, more reliable feel so balls stop phasing through walls.
For an open-world experience that already pulls players in a dozen different directions, these updates show a developer willing to embrace pure sandbox fun. Whether you are building an army of pigeons, hunting down rare gear, or grinding out the endgame content, Crimson Desert continues to evolve into a massive digital playground. It is the kind of feature creep that actually serves the player experience, giving communities more absurd mechanics to share and clip across social feeds.
