How to get the White Bear mount in Crimson Desert

The White Bear mount in Crimson Desert can be found just south of the White Wastes Sanctuary in northwest Pailune, where it roams with its two cubs. Players need to gain access to the Witch's Lair vendor, typically by Chapter 3 of the main storyline, to unlock the mount. To obtain the White Bear, players must defeat it in battle, which will yield items such as the White Bear Claws and the White Bear Helm. After defeating the White Bear, players should visit the Witch's Lair vendor, Elowen, to craft a Sigil of Solidarity using the White Bear Claws. Consuming the Sigil will unlock the White Bear as a mount, which can then be selected for use. The White Bear is a battle mount with a powerful swipe attack and a multi-swipe combo.

‘I think we’re in the fight of our lives’: Fired Rockstar employees and IWGB are confident the GTA 6 developer will be held accountable for its alleged union busting

Over 30 employees at Rockstar Games were terminated, leading to protests organized by the Independent Workers' of Great Britain (IWGB) union, which labeled the firings as union busting. Take-Two, Rockstar's parent company, stated that the dismissals were due to "gross misconduct" related to employees discussing confidential information, denying any link to union activities. As a result of these events, the release of Grand Theft Auto 6 has been postponed from May 2026 to November 2026 to ensure quality standards. A representative from People Make Games expressed belief that the financial impact of the firings and delays has been considered by management, but he remains optimistic about the strength of worker solidarity in response to the situation.
