Being the open-world game it is, traversal becomes an important part of Crimson Desert, and with Pywel being filled with hidden paths and movement challenges, it becomes important to unlock different abilities from the start. One of these is the Double Jump, a skill that not only enhances mobility but is also easy to unlock.

There are two ways of unlocking Double Jump in Crimson Desert, and in this guide, we’ll break down how exactly you can unlock the skill for yourself as soon as possible.

The most reliable and straightforward way to unlock Double Jump in Crimson Desert is through the Spirit Skill Tree.

To get started, open your skill menu and navigate to the Spirit tab. Here, you’ll find a variety of passive and active abilities tied to your progression. Double Jump is located within this tree, and unlocking it requires you to have 1 Abyss Artifact and 5 Spirit points to equip the skill.

Once purchased and equipped, the Double Jump becomes a permanent addition to your movement toolkit. This method is usually the best approach for players who want to grab the skill early in the game without relying on chance-based mechanics.

If you do not wish to waste your resources on unlocking the Double Jump mechanic for yourself in Crimson Desert, the game offers an alternative method called the “Watch and Learn” mechanic. This system allows your character to mimic abilities performed by NPCs around you, and to unlock Double Jump this way, you’ll need to see an NPC doing it first.

A known early-game location for this is the Pororin Village in the Pororin Forest, which is unlocked after completing The Unreachable Village quest. Once there, in the village, you should be able to find three NPC children jumping, with the game giving you the prompt to “Observe” and learn the mechanic for yourself.

Before you dive into the game and unlock the skill for yourself, it remains important to note that the Double Jump in Crimson Desert does not function like a traditional mid-air jump. And, instead of pressing the jump button twice while airborne, the correct timing is slightly different.

To do the perfect Double Jump in the game, the player needs to jump once, then press the jump button again, just as you’re about to land or make contact with the ground.
