33 Horses in Crimson Desert come in multiple breeds, each with different appearances and stat distributions. While all horses share the same core mechanics for taming, leveling, and equipment, the breed determines the horse's visual appearance, base stat tendencies, and where it can be found in the wild. There are five known regular horse breeds, plus three legendary horses that exist as unique, named individuals.

These legendary horses have significantly higher stats than any regular wild horse and are each found in specific locations.
