Pearl Abyss releases Crimson Desert Original Soundtrack Volume 1 for free on Steam – 75 tracks, four sections, no time limit. Here’s how to get it and why it’s a big deal.
1. What’s Included – Crimson Desert OST Volume 1
The four sections:
“This album is the fruit of creative toil and perseverance. Through its rich sound, we have brought to life Pywel’s vast horizons and its most poignant moments. To the players wandering the wilds and crossing paths with destiny, may this music be your steadfast companion.” – Pearl Abyss
2. How to Get the Free OST
Important: The free download is not available on PlayStation Store or Xbox Store. Console players can still stream via YouTube or wait for streaming platforms.
3. Community Reaction – Overwhelmingly Positive
Fans have responded warmly to the free release, especially given the high quality of Pearl Abyss’s music (both in Crimson Desert and Black Desert Online).
Our take: The Crimson Desert soundtrack deserves recognition. Releasing it for free is a smart goodwill move – especially as the game continues to sell well (over 5 million copies). It also serves as free marketing: players who haven’t bought the game might hear the music and become curious.
4. Comparison – Game Soundtrack Freebies
Our take: A permanent free soundtrack of this size (75 tracks) is unusual. Most developers charge $5–15 for OSTs or bundle them with special editions. Pearl Abyss is being unusually generous.
5. Why This Matters for BuyCarry & Players
For players:
- A high‑quality OST at no cost – perfect for background listening while working, studying, or gaming.
- Great for fans who want to relive the game’s emotional moments without launching the game.
- Accessible even if you don’t own Crimson Desert – potential entry point for new players.
For BuyCarry:
- Positive community sentiment around Crimson Desert means more player engagement – which can translate into demand for our services (coaching, boss carries, material farming).
- The soundtrack release keeps the game in the news cycle, which helps maintain a healthy player base.
- If you’re a Crimson Desert fan who wants to 100% the game but lacks time, we’re here to help.
Our advice: Download the OST even if you’re not a hardcore Crimson Desert player – it’s free, and the music stands on its own. If the game’s difficulty has been holding you back, our boosters can help you progress while you enjoy the soundtrack.
6. Summary Table – Key Information
💬 BuyCarry Team’s Take

What could be better:
