Get Black Desert for free… if you reach level 56 in 7 days

Kakao Games has a sweet deal for you. You can get Black Desert for free, but there is a catch – you have to complete the 7-day trial challenge.

What is this trial? Starting today and until October 17, you have the opportunity to begin a Black Desert Online 7-day trial and within that time, if you get to level up your character to level 56 and complete his/her awakening quest, you will earn a free Starter's Package worth $9.99 / €9.99 / £7.99 value. However, take note that this offer isn't available for the Steam release, it's only accessible from the official website.

Black Desert Online has recently reached the impressive milestone of 10 million registered players worldwide. The player base is fairly healthy judging by the Steam numbers, but I'm not too keen on the recent storm of negative reviews, with aren't doing the game any favors. Obviously, it's all about accusations of steering into pay-to-win territory. As one player has said, “I'm too poor to be good at this game any longer.”

If you have been playing Black Desert Online, do you agree with this? And if you haven't, are you going to give it a shot?
