Pearl Abyss Will Take Over As Publisher For Russian Version Of Black Desert Online

GameNet has announced that Pearl Abyss will take over the publishing duties for Black Desert Online in Russia starting on October 12th. A contract between current publisher GameNet and developer Pearl Abyss was not successfully made for GameNet to continue providing Black Desert services to Russian players.

Steps are being made to ensure that all accounts and characters can be transferred without issues, but accounts will not be transferred automatically. Players will be able to transfer via a new Russian website by Pearl Abyss. It’s also been clarified that the Russian servers will not merge with European servers.
