Attention all Arena of Solare rankers!

The Season is currently underway, and we know how hard you've been playing to climb your way up the ranks.

We've decided to hold a special event for those who are putting all their time and effort into improving their PvP skills in Arena of Solare.

That's why we're happy to announce Black Desert's first Arena of Solare offline tournament, the Solare Invitational at TwitchCon San Diego!
