Crimson Desert's first DLC expansion has been revealed – it's called Charting the Unknown, and it's out next month.

Shown off during today's PlayStation State of Play, Charting the Unknown's trailer shows that Crimson Desert is still apparently aiming to include as many different game mechanics and features as possible, because base building has now been shown off.

We also see Cliff steering a boat before exploring underwater, even holding onto the back of a massive shark to travel around under the sea.
