Crimson Desert’s been having a moment. On April 15, it hit five million sales, and last week the prime minister of South Korea celebrated the achievement, calling it a “new chapter in K-content”. To top it all off, Pearl Abyss has paid its employees a 5 million won bonus, or around $3,392/£2,513.

According to an earnings presentation from November, it had 1,323 employees, which would make the total bonus paid 6.6 million won, or $4.5 million/£3.3 million.

The devs have more than earned their bonus.
