Fresh PS5 Pro gameplay from Digital Foundry highlights strong performance for Pearl Abyss's Crimson Desert, launching March 19, 2026—but a last-minute Denuvo DRM addition on PC has sparked player outrage. A new launch trailer also debuted.
Some Xbox players who preordered Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight gained early access to the full game over the weekend. The issue stemmed from Walmart digital pre-order codes that unlocked the title ahead of its May 22 release. Meanwhile, the PC version received Denuvo DRM protection.

Developer Pearl Abyss updated the Steam page for Crimson Desert to include Denuvo DRM on March 12, just days before the game's March 19 launch. The change has sparked backlash among PC players concerned about potential performance issues. The game has already surpassed 3 million wishlists.
