Pearl Abyss is making a serious effort to make sure that their future games are as realistic as they can get, which just so happens to include a $26 million investment on a new building called the Pearl Abyss Art Center.

Once completed, the Pearl Abyss Art Center will rise up to five-storeys and will give the studio over 6,000 square meters of available floor space. The new building will be part of the South Korean studio’s new headquarters in Gwacheon Knowledge Information Town and will house its own 1,000 square meter motion capture studio. Pearl Abyss is also planning to build their own 3D scanning and audio studios.

“We plan to create more realistic and cinematic games through the art center,” said Jeakwon Kim, Pearl Abyss’ Executive Head of Division for the Art Sector. “It will be a technologically advanced base for Pearl Abyss to improve the quality of new titles such as Crimson Desert, DokeV, and PLAN 8 as well as the Black Desert IP.”

The Pearl Abyss Art Center is expected to be operational in the first half of 2022. More information can be found on the Pearl Abyss official site.
