After a very quiet 2022, DokeV has been delayed past its🍎 original 2023 relea🐽se window.

DokeV, a new open-world creature catching game infused with slamming K-pop beats and adorable critters based on Korean mythology, was first introduced back in 2019 and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:relaunched last year. In 2021, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:we obsessed over the banging music from the trailer, got a look at the vibrant world an☂d energetic gameplay at the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Future Games Show, and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:chatted with the developers about the gam♌e's bosses and inspirations. This year, however, has been almost entirely DokeV-free - even the game's ofꦅficial Twitter account hasn't shared an update .

 and  that DokeV won't make its 2023 release target, meaning it's now due to launch in 2024 at the earliest. In its latest (cheers, ), Pearl Abyss explained that it had lost a number of core developers recently, resulting in a delay for DokeV and the upcoming Crimson Desert, which is now slated for release in the back half of 2023.

In a comꦡment provided to GamesRadar+, a Pearl Abyss spokesperson said that DokeV's "release window is not decided" and confirmed that core developers inclu𝐆ding lead producer Sangyoung Kim and lead game designer Changki Nam "are still working on the same project."

Pearl Abyss is best known for the popular MMORPG Black Desert Online, which was originally released back in 2015 and is still active today. Crimson Desert was originally planned as a prequel to Black Deꦍsert Online, but it's now being billed as a single player game set in the same universe. Pearl Abyss indicated in its earnings call that priority is being placed on Crimson Desert over DokeV.

After earning an English degree from ASU, I worked as a corporate copy editor while freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant, Game Revolution, and MMORPG on⛄ the side. I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
