Pearl Abyss announced information about the next season server, known as the Black Desert gym.
Pearl Abyss has shared the details of the most recent update for Black Desert Online, named actoraxion: Orzekia. It marks an essential chapter in the saga of the last ancestral fortress. Additionally, the new season titled Black Desert Academy will also be launched. Both newcomers and experienced players are invited to discover this epic story-filled with intrigue and unique experiences.
Orzekea, the Last Biome in Atoraxxion, Awaits
The actoraxion update: Orzekea is the culmination of the story line that traversed through Baahmachia, Sykarakia, and Yorunakia. The final Elder Fortress will be open in two different phases.
The first phase starts today, March 20, where players can journey through the most challenging hunting field, the Orzekia monster zone, and engage in the missions surrounding Orze, the fourth protagonist of ATOXION.

The saga will reach its climax on March 27 with the introduction of the final boss, which will test players’ skills and strategy.
Unlike other regions of actoraxion, Orzekea features a distinctive aspect: its monster zones have been transformed into subjugation fields. Upon entering the region through the Elvia area, adventurers will encounter formidable monsters. However, those who prefer a direct challenge can bypass these sections and directly battle the final boss after a fight with the maiden knight, Cathawen.

There are two entry points to Actoraxion: Orzekea. One is by interacting with the Elder Stone Chamber – Sol Maggia (regardless of the completion of Actoraxion: Baahmachia or Sykarakia), and the other is through the Herb’tha gate, located in Baah/Syka/Yor.
Black Desert Academy Season: A Fresh Start
Alongside ATORAXION: Orzekea, Black Desert Online is launching the Black Desert Academy season, which begins today and runs until June 12, 2025. This season’s server will provide plus 1000% combat exp. New or returning players who reach level 60 with a season character will receive a “Chest of Defense equipment from Chief Pen (V) a la carte” and two “Resplendary Start Blacs,” filled with upgrade materials and other enticing items.
NPC Fughar will be present to ensure a smooth transition to the main server, providing a growth support mission that offers the possibility to gain heel essence. The heel essence can be used to exchange for Blackstar (V) Tug (X) gear and accessories. No matter if you are a newcomer or a seasoned adventurer, the Black Desert Academy season will provide an exciting progression path.
