Patch 2.02.00
September 16, 2026 at 05:04 AM
Initial version: patch 2.02.00 with Mac cross-save, twelve fixes and the six-platform rollout
Patch 2.02.00 was released on September 11, 2026 at 05:30 UTC, the second numbered patch after the Crimson Desert Enhanced line began at 2.00.00. It carries one new feature, cross-save on Mac, and a twelve-entry fix and improvement list. Two of those fixes clear progression blockers that had no workaround: the Thornbriar Fortress liberation objective could not be completed at all before this patch, and the letter in the quest The Words of Alustin could vanish mid-quest.
Cross-save was added on Mac. The feature itself is not new to the game: it shipped in patch 1.14.00 on July 16, 2026 covering PlayStation, Xbox, Steam and the Epic Games Store, and 2.02.00 is the point at which Mac joins it. Patch 2.02.00 reached both Mac storefronts, Steam and the Mac App Store, on the same day. See macOS Version for the rest of the Mac build’s feature set.
Twelve entries were listed under bug fixes and improvements. The class column separates outright fixes from broader quality changes.
Change | Class |
|---|---|
Shining a lantern on an NPC would not make their belongings visible. | Fixed |
Housing would not become available when raising the banner at Howling Hill Camp while the inventory was full. | Fixed |
Thornbriar Fortress could not be liberated. | Fixed |

Certain Arabic text would not display correctly. | Fixed |
Visual noise on armor was particularly noticeable indoors. | Fixed |
Kliff’s appearance was unnatural when wearing the Crow Cloth Blindfold with certain settings enabled. | Fixed |
The rollout table published with the patch listed all six distribution points as live on the same day.

The two published versions of 2.02.00 do not match. The version on the game’s own notice board carries the New Additions block with the Mac cross-save entry and the six-platform rollout table above. The Steam copy of the same patch omits the New Additions block entirely, summarises the release as bug fixes and stability improvements, and lists only the two Steam platforms. Reading 2.02.00 on Steam alone makes it look like a PC-only, fix-only patch, which is the reason this article records the platform rollout separately.
2.02.00 follows Patch 2.01.00 of September 4, 2026 and Patch 2.00.02 of September 1, 2026. No patch, hotfix or version newer than 2.02.00 had been published on any first-party surface as of September 16, 2026. See Patch Notes for the full version history and Known Issues for what remains open.
