South Korean developer Pearl Abyss is working on the game, which will feature a quite large sandbox-style world, weather system and detailed character creation. In the video below, Pearl Abyss provides a look at the game's forests, foggy castles, towns, mountains and much more. Access to areas in the game will be seamless with no loading screens and as much pretty visuals as possible.
Black Desert's closed beta is expected to kick off April 22 in South Korea. A Western release has not been announced. Check out the trailer below and if you happen to miss the rather crazy in-depth character creation video as well you can find that alongside.

Just seems like building a whole lot of hype over something we might never see.
I get the feeling this might lose out in the west because people will be getting their sand-box mmo vibes off of Arche Age by the time this even enters CB here. And as we've seen with wow, sentimental value with characters can really inhibit uptake on similar games.

As you said though, ArcheAge will most likely fill this gap that people want from sandbox games, unless of course Black Desert beats it but that is not foreseeable.

Also, I kind of hope Black Desert beats ArcheAge, as I think AA has had some stupid changes in one of the latest patches that might roll over (such as destroying exploration exp) but realistically, I doubt we'll see it for years if at all.
