Available right now and up until January 28th, Black Desert Online by Pearl Abyss is available to be played for free! On top of this free trial period through Steams Free Weekend, the game is also on sale for half off on both steam and the Black Desert Online website.

If you were ever curious about what it would be like to visit a sandbox, living-world MMORPG that is full of monsters, bosses, creatures, and players to fight with or against, then this is your best chance to try Black Desert Online out before buying it. If you don't know much about the game, it is worth checking out because it is more than just some action-packed adventure. You will get to train various skills to help your character grow and become a tradesman of all kinds of goods.

For the players that are already playing Black Desert Online, you haven't been forgotten. This free weekend and sale benefits you as well. To keep up the excitement for their accomplished players, they have released Vell, an ocean boss that will be emerging for the first time this weekend in order to have an epic battle! Don't get yourself killed trying to take on this beast. It won't be an easy fight, to say the least.

The full length of the free weekend is from January 25 at 10:00 AM Pacific and ends on January 28 at 1:00 PM Pacific. The package deal, to get the game for half off, started on January 25 at 10:00 AM Pacific and ends on January 29 at 10:00 AM Pacific, the day after the free trial ends.

Are you going to be trying this game out while it is free or are you already a member that plans to take on Vell for the first time?
