Crimson Desert Patch 1.14.00 is live on Steam PC/Mac, PlayStation, Xbox, and Epic Games Store, adding cross-save for PlayStation, Xbox, Steam, and Epic Games Store alongside quest, combat, localization, animation, audio, and NPC pathfinding fixes.
Crimson Desert Patch 1.14.00 released on July 16, 2026, and it is built around polish rather than new content. The main addition is cross-save, with a set of fixes aimed at stuck quests, unreliable combat actions, odd animations, lingering sound effects, and NPC movement.

Refresh the Cross-Save menu after linking accounts so the Cross-Save slot appears before you try to upload your save data.
Quest and gameplay fixes
The biggest progression fix is for A Dwarf’s Concern. Players who were blocked because the quest objective would not advance should now be able to complete it after installing the patch.
Patch 1.14.00 also fixes a control-lock issue tied to pets and beds. If a pet jumped onto the bed while the player was interacting with it, the character could become unresponsive; that interaction should no longer leave you stuck.
Combat and action changes
Damiane’s Skystep now uses the same control input as Oongka’s Vertical Flight. That is a consistency change more than a power change, but it should make swapping between those movement abilities feel less awkward.
Aerial Force Palm also gets a reliability fix. The move should no longer be interrupted when used while free-falling, which matters most during aerial combat where a failed activation could break your flow mid-attack.
Localization, animation, audio, and NPC fixes
| Fix | What changed |
|---|---|
| Localization quality | Various localization errors were fixed across all supported languages. |
| High-speed mount animation | Character motion on a fast-moving mount should no longer appear unnatural in certain situations. |
| Pravious the Ancient audio | Sound effects should keep playing correctly after defeating Pravious the Ancient. |
| Aeter’s Orb sound | The orb sound effect now stops after Aeter’s Orb disappears. |
| NPC gate pathfinding | NPCs should now pass through open wooden gates properly. |
The rest of Patch 1.14.00 is a cleanup pass across presentation and world behavior. These fixes are smaller individually, but they target the kind of repeated issues that make exploration and combat feel rough over time.
No new regions, armor, or weapons
Patch 1.14.00 does not add new regions, armor sets, or weapons. This update is a quality-of-life and stability patch, with cross-save as the headline feature and bug fixes doing most of the remaining work.
