A new chapter of fierce 1-on-1 combat awaits. We are proud to introduce the Martial God Tournament, a reimagined PvP experience built to elevate your battlefield prowess.

Since its inception, the Arena has been a beloved part of Black Desert Mobile, enjoyed by many Adventurers. However, its unique combat mechanics, which differed from normal field content, proved to be a barrier for many players and made balanced adjustments a challenge.

We have completely overhauled the Arena to address these issues. With the unique guard type rules removed, you no longer need to learn a separate system for the tournament. Combat will now shift from a focus on knockdowns to a more strategic balance of offense and defense—where nullifying your opponent's attacks and minimizing damage while dealing your own will determine victory.

The new, larger stage of the Martial God Tournament allows for more diverse and tactical gameplay. As all skills now function identically to how they do in the field, we are confident in our ability to make more flexible balance adjustments moving forward.
