Here is When and How to Unlock Your First House in Crimson Desert

A comprehensive guide detailing the exact quest progression and chapter requirements needed to unlock your first private home in Crimson Desert, courtesy of Polygon.

If you are diving into the sprawling world of Pearl Abyss and trying to figure out when you can finally stop living out of your inventory, you are not alone. Having a dedicated base of operations is practically a rite of passage in modern open world RPGs. Fortunately, getting your own private retreat in Crimson Desert is tied to the main campaign, though it requires a bit of patience before you can hang up your weapons and start interior decorating.

According to a comprehensive guide by Marloes Valentina Stella over at Polygon, players will need to push through the early hours until they reach Chapter 3, titled Howling Hill. Once you arrive, you must complete a specific sequence of quests starting with First Step to Rebuilding and followed immediately by A Fresh Start. After you check off those building objectives like pushing the wagon and raising the banner, you will officially unlock the campground and your very own cottage located just southeast of the main camp.

While the house starts off pretty sparse aside from the essential bed and wardrobe, it gives you a safe space to pass the time, sharpen your gear, and take a breather from tough combat encounters. If you have collected furniture pieces during your travels, you can finally place them to make the space feel like home, or you can check out local shops for more decor. It is a nice structural touch that anchors your character in the world before you head back out to tackle the next brutal boss fight.
