On September 6th (KST), Pearl Abyss (Kyung In Jung as the CEO) announced the launch of Black Desert Online in Turkey and the MENA (The Middle East and Northern Africa) regions.
Pearl Abyss opened the official website of BDO in Turkey and MENA regions at 5:00 PM on September 6th (KST) and began pre-order sales.
The BDO version launching in these regions will provide Turkish and English languages, and will be serviced by Pearl Abyss itself. The company has completed preparations for the recruitment and establishment of an in-the-field office for smooth management.
Turkey and MENA regions have bright prospects in the gaming industry. Turkey is setting the record to be No.3 in the world for the number of PC gameplay hours per person, and the Middle East is also the region where the gaming industry is rapidly growing due to the high ratio of young people and steady increase in population.
To celebrate the pre-order sales and opening the website, Pearl Abyss will be holding a sign-up event via the official website of BDO in Turkey and the MENA regions from September 6th to October 10th. Furthermore, the company will participate in Game X, the renowned game show in Turkey, from September 14th to 17th. The company is planning to actively promote BDO to potential players at the biggest single booth, with a size of 403 square meters, among all the participating companies.
“It is time to introduce BDO, the global IP, using our knowledge of self-publishing, in Turkey and the MENA regions. We will make sure to provide the best service to those who have been waiting for so long time,” said Kyung In Jung, the CEO of Pearl Abyss.
Pearl Abyss is planning to launch BDO in Southeast Asia following the release in Turkey and the MENA regions.
