Greetings Adventurers!
We will be performing a scheduled maintenance for Black Desert on August 13, 2026 (Thu) in order to improve our services and bring you the latest updates.
During the maintenance, all services related to the Black Desert Website, Game Login, and Web Central Market will be temporarily unavailable.
Please refer below for more details regarding the maintenance.
2️⃣ Support for Windows 7 and DirectX 9 will end on Aug 13 (Thu) 2026. [More details]
3️⃣ After the Aug 13 (Thu) maintenance, the maximum level will be set to 70. As such, EXP gained through Tag Character after the maintenance will not be applied beyond Lv. 70.
Adventurers with stored EXP that exceeds Lv. 70 are advised to collect it before the maintenance.
4️⃣ New boss quests, [Weekly] For the Throne: Aphrodon/Hermesia/Magaia/Aresion, will be added on Aug 13 (Thu). To access them, please do not complete the existing [Weekly] For the Throne quest before the Aug 13 maintenance. Completing it beforehand will prevent you from taking on the new quests.
