How to get a Tiger Mount in Crimson Desert

Guides
By Joel Franey published 12 May 2026

Tigers in Crimson Desert are very rare, and you might have missed the chance to get one as a mount already

The Tiger in Crimson Desert is a mount that players can tame and find, but it's incredibly rare to the point where it only spawns in one location – and if you've killed them already, they don't respawn. However, the tiger is one of the most impressive mounts in Crimson Desert, so it's definitely worth getting as a mount to ride on if you have the chance. I'll lay out its location below and what you need to do to tame it.

If you want some other unique mounts, check out how to get the Crimson Desert Kuku Bird and the Crimson Desert Raptor as rideable steeds!

Tigers' location in Crimson Desert

At time of writing, there is only one known spawn location for Tigers in Crimson Desert: at the unnamed lake next to Giant's Yard Watchtower in the Peninsula South of the Crimson Desert region, North of Beardtree Gorge and Southwest of Red River.

However, these tigers spawn only as summoned minions and defenders of the Legendary White Tiger that appears there. This is where things get tricky – if you've already killed the White Tiger, then it doesn't respawn, and the Tigers that defend it won't respawn either. Sadly there's no solution for this other than to reload an earlier save from before the point where the White Tiger died – if it's gone, you can't get a regular Tiger mount.

How to tame tigers in Crimson Desert as a mount

The process for taming a tiger works the same as any of the other Special Mounts in Crimson Desert.

  1. Do enough damage to the Tiger to the point where it's stunned and the trigger to "Ride" appears above it.
  2. Ride the tiger! While riding it, select meat in your inventory and select the "Feed" option.
  3. The meat you feed it should increase its Trust. Once it reaches 100, press Y/Triangle to "Take in" the tiger as a permanent special mount.

Tigers are mounts that will attack enemies even when you dismount them, acting as allies. However, they don't have infinite health, and large groups of enemies will take them down pretty easily. If defeated, your Tiger mount will take about five minutes of real time in Crimson Desert to respawn.

Guides Editor, GamesRadar+

Joel Franey is a writer, journalist, podcaster and Very Tired Man with a BA from Brunel University, a Masters from Sussex University and a decade working in games journalism, often focused on guides coverage but also in reviews, features and news. His love of games is strongest when it comes to groundbreaking narratives like Disco Elysium, UnderTale and Baldur's Gate 3, as well as innovative or refined gameplay experiences like XCOM, Sifu, Arkham Asylum or Slay the Spire. He is a firm believer that the vast majority of games would be improved by adding a grappling hook, and if they already have one, they should probably add another just to be safe. You can find old work of his at Eurogamer, Gfinity, USgamer, SFX Magazine, RPS, Dicebreaker, VG247, and more.
