Developer Pearl Abyss has showcased three boss fights from its upcoming open-world action-adventure game Crimson Desert--a masked outcast known as the Reed Devil, the king of a fallen kingdom known as the Staglord, and the massive gem-encrusted Queen Stoneback Crab.
The new clips, as revealed at Gamescom this week, show off the variety in Crimson Desert's boss combat, with each enemy requiring different skills and strategy to fight. The clips also introduce a little more of the world of Pywel, including some of the narrative cutscenes that lead into the boss fights.
The first of these bosses, the Queen Stoneback Crab, is decribed by Pearl Abyss as a kind of ambush predator, luring in unwary prey with the promise of valuable gems. "A gem-crusted boulder sits stoic and silent, a dazzling prism of riches," the developer's description reads.

We can only hope it has a weak point to attack for massive damage.
