Crimson Desert early review leak from Spanish YouTuber “Revenant” (Leak posted ~18 March 2026)

What happened? Spanish content creator Revenant (700 k subscribers) violated the review embargo and posted a now‑deleted video containing 30 minutes of footage and detailed impressions of Crimson Desert. GamesHub summarised the leak.
Key details
- Combat & mechanics: Revenant said the combat feels like Devil May Cry or Ninja Gaiden — fast and fluid with numerous contextual attacks. Grapples can trigger different moves depending on the enemy’s position, and players can use trees and enemies as slingshots.
- Learning curve & world design: He noted a steep learning curve during the first 8 hours but found the systems rewarding later. The open world has verticality reminiscent of Red Dead Redemption 2, Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. Revenant said he spent over 50 hours in the first zone, suggesting a massive game world.
- Narrative & tone: The narrative is stronger than Pearl Abyss’ MMO Black Desert but not as deep as The Witcher 3. The story focuses on epic battles rather than a complex RPG, with a semi‑open structure that prioritises gameplay..
- Criticisms: He mentioned confusing inventory menus, limited storage and bodies despawning. Revenant predicted a Metacritic score of 80–85 but said fans of action games might score it in the 90s.
Credibility & context: The video was removed due to embargo violation, and the information may not reflect the final patched release. However, GamesHub’s summary provides specific observations that align with other previews.
