Daum Games has announced that the first closed beta for Black Desert Online has officially gone live. The MMORPG’s beta is set to run until 7:00 a.m. UTC on December 22nd, and is available to anyone who was selected to participate. Players who have pre-ordered the Conqueror’s Package will automatically be entered into this beta and the second one. Anyone who wants to take part can pre-order the Conqueror’s Package here.
The Beta test includes numerous improvements based on community feedback, including the Tamer class, the Calpheon Region, and special in-game events. GMs will also be hosting challenges in which players can win a number of prizes, such as dyes, taming equipment, and lanterns for the battle with Kzaka, one of the biggest world bosses at launch.
