Crimson Desert Patch Notes 1.12.02 (24th June 2026)
Pearl Abyss patches out stability issues affecting AMD users and Photo Mode in Crimson Desert 1.12.02.
Patch 1.12.02 is live now on Steam for both PC and Mac, and it's a stability-focused update addressing some annoying crashes that have been hitting players hard.
The big one here is the AMD RX 5000 Series fix. If you've been getting frequent crashes when running the game at 1080p with that GPU, this should finally get you stable. There's also a fix for Photo Mode crashing when you toggle HDR off mid-session, which is the kind of edge case that shouldn't exist but somehow always does. On top of that, Pearl Abyss sorted out an odd issue where certain ocean areas were incorrectly marked as No Fishing Zones, so if you've been confused about where you can actually cast a line, that's cleared up now.
Small patch, but necessary. Check the full notes below for the complete list.
