Black Desert Online has been given a huge new update on PS4.
Releasing just two weeks after the game’s launch, the new update introduces two new character classes on PS4.
According to the patch notes, the Dark Knight and Musa characters can be selected once fans have downloaded the update.
“Dark Knight wields intense power gained by burning nature’s latent energy,” reads the official description. “She wields the deadly Kriegsmesser for close range encounters, and uses her powerful, nature-burning magic for mid-range encounters.”
Musa, meanwhile, fights with a sword and bow, and was said to be born with a tiger’s roar.
“Musa was born with a tiger’s roar, and the power of that roar still echoes through his every action,” the post continues. “His sword and bow make short work of anyone foolish enough to stand between him and his goals.”
In more good news, the new update doesn’t require any server downtime or maintenance – although the PC version was taken offline for a short period earlier today.

System Changes…
System changes include quality of life additions that can’t easily be categorized into the above areas. Our developers are always looking into making both small and large changes to functions of the game to improve the gameplay for everyone.
• You can now retrieve items from your mail anywhere in the Black Desert world.
• Fall damage no longer applies when descending the towers in Red Battlefield.
• You can now choose to throw away certain grades of fish. If you choose to throw away green fish, only blue and yellow fish will remain in your inventory. This will not affect vendor items, relics, and other items you can fish up while fishing.
• Added a function to collect all in the challenge window. This will not apply to challenges that require a choice of items.
• For the time being, the Guild Apprentice system has been disabled. This will allow you to promote other players freely for the time being.
Other changes
• Default Chat Window settings have been changed so that Guild/World/Notices are now activated by default. You can change this by going to settings>Chat Window Settings and changing them from on to off.
• To allow guilds to grow easier, we have removed the apprentice system from guilds. This function may return at a later date once guilds have had time to stabilize.
