Serendia and Calpheon Story Quest Revamp
Serendia, Calpheon Main Quest Revamp: Jordine Saga The main quest in the Serendia and Calpheon regions has been renewed and is now available to adventurers under the name of ‘Jordine Saga’.
As soon as you adventurers took your first step on your adventure in Balenos, you met a woman with red hair. She is Jarette Domongatt, the noblewoman of Serendia whom you will be adventuring with this time. At first, she looked down on and ignored the adventurers who had just woken up, but soon after seeing them again solves various problems in Balenos. She admired the adventurer’s abilities and formally invited them to Serendia.
As adventurers begin their adventure with Jarette, they will encounter the complex political situation on the Black Desert Continent and the conflict between characters working for different purposes. The seeds of the events that sprouted in Serendia will spread to the neighboring country of Calpheon, leading adventurers into a whirlwind of unpredictable events. Amid countless choices, explore the narratives written by adventurers and characters through the newly renovated Serendia and Calpheon main quests.
This time too, all lines from the main request are fully dubbed. Voice actors Eom Sang-hyeon as Jordine, Kim Do-young as Jarette, Moon Yu-jeong as Isobel, Kim Hwon as Balks, as well as Kwak Yoon-sang, Seok Seung-hoon, Sa Seong-woong, Choi Han, Seo Won-seok, Yoon A-young, Jang Min-hyuk, Lee Ho-in, Bae Jeong-mi, So-yeon, etc. You can enjoy the passionate performances of the best voice actors. In addition, reflecting the feedback previously expressed by adventurers, we actively utilized illustrations so that the background knowledge needed to understand the story can be obtained just by completing the main quest. In addition, for the cut scenes provided in the existing main quest, all lines were re-recorded based on this adaptation, and the quality of the sound effects and background music was raised several levels higher. Of course, there are also many completely new cutscenes. All included, there are about an hour of cutscenes.
Unfortunately, the ‘Kzarka Side Story’ that was introduced at the last Calpheon Banquet was not included this time. We will work hard to develop it and do our best to show it to you in time. Happy New Year, and I hope you have fun adventures in Serendia and Calpheon.

Monster Zone Changes
Yzrahid Highlands is a monster zone that many adventurers are currently visiting and enjoying. As it is a monster zone that requires high defense, maintaining appropriate tension is an important part of the fun of the zone.
However, through this update, Seculion’s range display and attack power have been adjusted. This is not simply an intention to lower the difficulty of the monster zone.
We judged that powerful attacks without a range indicator or attacks that cause death all at once could cause high fatigue among adventurers, so adjustments to this area were made through this update.
