Crimson Desert is absolutely packed with legendary weapons hidden across the world of Pywel, and one of the most iconic ones is based on Excalibur, the iconic king’s sword, or rather, the Righteous Verdict, as it is known in-game.
In this guide, we’ll walk you through what the Excalibur sword actually is in Crimson Desert, where to find it, and why exactly it might be worth fitting in your build.
Where to Find the Righteous Verdict Sword (Excalibur) in Crimson Desert

The Righteous Verdict is a unique and powerful two-handed weapon that can be found inside the Demeniss Ancestor’s Ruins and requires navigating a guarded cave. To get started on your journey to find this in-game version of Excalibur, start at the southern part of the Demeniss region and make your way to the Nightfell Expedition Camp.
Once there, look for a cave entrance in the mountain, which two soldiers would usually guard. It’s completely optional to take them out before you eventually enter the cave and follow the narrow path inside. After walking for a bit, you’ll reach a waterfall, something you are supposed to go behind to find a staircase leading to the sealed entrance to the ruins.
Further inside the ruins, before you find the sword, you’ll encounter a series of stone pillars that you’ll want to jump across one by one to reach the other side. A mistimed jump will drop you into the water below; coming back requires you to climb up a nearby platform. Once crossed, approach the next door ahead to open it.
Inside the final room, walk toward the far end, and you will see the Righteous Verdict lodged upright in the floor, just like the legendary Excalibur in the age-old myth. Walk up to it to pull it free and add it to your inventory.
