Crimson Desert 5 New Mounts Explained After Patch 1.01.00

Patch 1.01.00 adds five new summonable mounts to Crimson Desert, but Pearl Abyss is still being careful about spoilers.

The studio officially confirmed the mount names, confirmed that they can be obtained and summoned after certain conditions, and noted that the people of Pywel are not afraid of these tamed animals in towns. What it did not do in the visible note is publish a full plain-text unlock walkthrough for each one.

That means the safe answer today is: yes, the mounts are real, yes, the names are public, but no, not every unlock route you see online is verified yet.

The five new mounts named in patch 1.01.00

Pearl Abyss lists the new mounts as:

Legendary Animals

• White Bear
• Silver Fang
• Snowwhite Deer

Boss' Mounts

• Rock Tusk Warthog
• Icicle Edge Alpine Ibex

Those names come directly from the current patch note.

What Pearl Abyss has officially confirmed

As of today, the official patch note confirms four important things:

1. There are five new mounts.
2. They can be obtained and summoned after certain conditions are met.
3. The note intentionally avoids plain spoiler-heavy unlock details in the visible list.
4. NPCs in Pywel are not afraid of these tamed animals, so you can travel through towns with them.

That last point is more useful than it sounds, because it tells you these are meant to function as real everyday mounts, not just novelty trophies you keep away from settlements.

What is still not confirmed

This is where you need to stay disciplined.

The current official note does not clearly spell out, in plain visible text:

• the exact unlock method for each mount
• whether each one is tied to quests, bosses, or both
• their individual speed or stamina stats
• whether they replace older best-in-slot mount choices
• whether any one of them is permanently missable

Because of that, this is not the right day to publish fake route guides with made-up step lists. The real value right now is a clean status explainer.

Why this mount update matters

The addition is worth covering today for two reasons.

First, Crimson Desert already had strong search interest around mounts before the patch. A new official batch of summonable mounts changes that entire topic.

Second, this patch is not just adding creatures. It is expanding the game's post-launch reward and collection layer in a way that feels more visible than a small balance tweak.

If you are a player who likes progression systems that give you something concrete to chase, this is one of the more exciting parts of 1.01.00.

How this differs from the site's All Mounts Guide

The existing All Mounts Guide is a broad baseline page for the game's older mount ecosystem.

This new article is different in two ways:

• it is specifically about the five mounts added in patch 1.01.00
• it stays strict about what is actually official today

That distinction matters because a broad mount guide and a patch-day status explainer serve different search intent.

Should you trust early unlock claims?

Not automatically.

Because Pearl Abyss intentionally hid some acquisition detail behind spoiler-aware presentation, early social posts have extra room to overclaim. Some of them will be right eventually. Some will not.

If you care about verified information, use this checklist:

• prefer the official patch note first
• wait for direct confirmation before treating a route as final
• compare any mount claim against later official notes or support updates

That is slower than chasing day-one rumors, but much safer.

What you should do now

If you are interested in the new mounts today:

1. Install patch 1.01.00.
2. Check the official names against your current collection and quest progress.
3. Keep a spoiler-aware mindset until Pearl Abyss or repeated first-hand confirmation makes the unlock paths clearer.
4. Use the older All Mounts Guide for general mount context, not as proof of these new unlock conditions.
