When the 2020 TGA Awards Ceremony was first released, "Red Desert" caused a sensation with its open world exploration, smooth combat and stunning images.At that time, the developer announced plans to release in winter 2021, but subsequently postponed indefinitely on the grounds that "it takes more time to polish."It was not until the opening night of Cologne in 2023 that the new trailer showed new elements such as high-speed combat system, enhanced picture performance, and store interaction/animal partners.

The latest trailer released by TGA several months ago confirmed that the game will be released at the end of 2025.However, South Korean media MTN recently reported that it received internal news, pointing out that the specific release date may be set as November 2.In response, Pearl Abyss clearly denied to Insider Gaming: "I have never accepted an interview with MTN, nor have I disclosed the specific date to him", emphasizing that all official news will be announced directly by the developer.

If progress goes well, "Red Desert" will be released simultaneously on PC/host worldwide.It is interesting to note that Sony has rumored to have tried to win the exclusive ownership of the PS5 platform, but Pearl Abyss chose to issue independently - it stated in an investor meeting that relying on the existing global issuance network and regional branches, independent issuance is more in line with long-term interests.

In addition to the confirmed platform, the recent rumors about the Switch2 version caused by the GameStop product list have also sparked discussions. The industry is worried that the Switch2 hardware can carry the original picture quality performance of the game, which may lead to a shrinking picture.
