New Crimson Desert update lets you permanently tame many more animals, and I'm going straight for the lion

Pearl Abyss released a new Crimson Desert patch with major mount and quality-of-life upgrades.

Players can now earn the trust of more animals, including lions and tigers, and register them as permanent special mounts.

The update also adds a gear extraction system that returns most refinement materials when upgrading items.

A new claw machine reward feature arrives at the Laughing Marionette, alongside smaller improvements like automatic pet attacks and bulk action commands.
