Crimson Desert Enhanced requires repurchase on Mac App Store

Dear Apple Support Team,

I purchased Crimson Desert through the US Mac App Store on April 15, 2026. After uninstalling the game several months later, I discovered that the App Store requires me to purchase it again.

Purchase details:

  • Product: Crimson Desert Enhanced (Pearl Abyss Corp.)
  • Order ID: ***
  • Document No.: ***
  • Purchase date: April 15, 2026
  • Total paid: $76.20 ($69.99 + $6.21 tax)
  • Apple Account: ***
  • Device: MacBook Air

I suspect this issue may be related to the game's subsequent renaming to Crimson Desert Enhanced. I also changed my billing address from New York to Los Angeles, although my App Store region remained the United States.

Apple's automated refund and problem-reporting systems do not allow me to submit a complaint regarding this purchase.

I respectfully request that Apple restore my access to the game or issue a full refund of $76.20.

I have attached the original Apple purchase receipt as proof of payment.

I have been an App Store customer for approximately 15 years and have never encountered such an issue before.

Please escalate this matter to a specialist who can manually review my purchase.

Thank you for your assistance.
