Crimson Desert Version 2.04.03 is available now on Steam for PC and Mac, with distribution underway across all platforms. Pearl Abyss’s Steam notice for Version 2.04.03 lists fixes for blocked pioneering missions and a revised “Gift” feature that lets players select multiple items and set a quantity for each. The preceding Version 2.04.02 update addressed sea-serpent attacks, stationary ships, and companion issues around water and combat, as covered in the Version 2.04.02 update.

The patch also fixes items being returned instead of properly delivered through “Gift,” and prevents festival customer visit intervals from increasing at night. Other changes address flying pets that fail to follow characters, spouses who do not give gifts after marriage, and problems checking Kliff’s unlock conditions during certain quest progress.

Version 2.04.03 follows the Version 2.04.00 hotfix, which addressed skill behavior, ship cameras, housing placement, and a desert respawn problem.
