Inventory management can play a big part in some games, and it’s an ever-present mechanic in Crimson Desert, especially at the start. You’ll come across plenty of items and resources you’ll want to pick up, but before long, you’ll find that you’ve got no space left in your inventory!
If you aren’t looking to drop everything, then you’re in luck, as there are ways to increase your inventory size in Crimson Desert, though the developers, Pearl Abyss, don’t make it incredibly obvious.
If you’re looking for some extra space in your pockets, then you’re in the right place, as Insider Gaming has all the information you’ll need below.
How To Increase Your Inventory Size In Crimson Desert

If you want to increase your inventory size in Crimson Desert, you’ll need to do favors for townsfolk scattered throughout Pywel, as well as complete main quests.
These can range from gathering some simple resources to aiding them in more specific circumstances, but the variety is practically endless. It’s an engaging system, too, as it’s not unlocked simply through purchases, and it encourages you to engage with the world around you.

It’s well worth the effort, though, as before long you’ll find that your inventory is packed full of bugs, gear, and trinkets, all of which serve their own purposes. There’s plenty to engage with in Crimson Desert, and if you want to try it all, you’ll need the pockets to do so.
What Is The Maximum Inventory Size In Crimson Desert?

It’s unclear what the maximum inventory size is, but by the end of the campaign, you should be in the 200s.
That’s a much bigger upgrade compared to the 23 that you start the game with, meaning you’ll gain over 200 slots throughout the adventure. However, you’ll quickly increase the available slots without even realising, especially so early on in the game.

All you need to do is make sure that you’re managing your inventory well, and be sure to sell items that you no longer require. Things like recipes can be sold once they’ve been studied, so don’t feel a need to hang onto them—unless you’re simply a hoarder, which by all means, hang onto them!
