Daum Games is happy to announce the return of special in-game events during the Beta test. First, the Bait Master Tour is back by popular demand. Catch a rare Beltfish and earn a special title, or try your skill at an all-new triathlon challenge! Rewards for both events will be added to the player’s account, so they will be accessible to those playing Black Desert Online when it officially launches. To see the event schedule and obtain more information, visit the official forums.
Furthermore, Daum Games has launched an official Twitch channel where the team will be streaming Black Desert Online every day during the Beta test starting at 5:30 p.m. Pacific. Twitch broadcasters who are also playing have a chance to be featured on the official channel, so keep tuned to twitch.tv/
Twitch streamers interested in being featured on the channel can sign up here.
Pre-order holders can still reserve their names ahead of launch, and anyone can enjoy Black Desert Online’s highly detailed Character Creator, downloadable for free, with the option of importing their creations in both the Closed Beta test and the full game when it releases on March 3, 2016. The Character Creator will be available until February 22 at 8:00 a.m. UTC.
