Naraka: Bladepoint Finally Launches on PS5 This Month

Naraka: Bladepoint comes out on PlayStation 5 on July 13 alongside a switch across all platforms to free-to-play.

The mythical melee battle royale also gets a new mode, called Capture the Spirit Well, a new hero called Tessa, and a new Dual Halberd weapon. Cross-play across all platforms launches July 13, too.

Naraka: Bladepoint, developed by 24 Entertainment and published by NetEase Games Montreal, launched on PC in August 2021 before Xbox Series X and S in June 2022. The new PS5 version launches just over a year later.

NetEase said Naraka: Bladepoint has now crossed the 20 million unique player mark. It’s a regular in Steam’s top 100 played games by concurrents list. At the time of publication, Naraka: Bladepoint was the 17th most-played game on Steam with just shy of 60,000 concurrents.

IGN’s Naraka: Bladepoint review returned an 8/10: “Superb melee combat and gravity-defying movement make Naraka: Bladepoint a clever spin on the familiar battle royale formula.”

Here’s the list of new features coming with the F2P launch:

  • Capture the Spirit Well: A 12v12 gang wars battle that allows players to capture locations to earn points
  • New Dual Halberds Weapon: Combines a spear and a dagger into one. It can stab straight and also strike horizontally with the ability to lock other weapons
  • Justice Chamber updates to Guild Mode: Position and more features will be added to the current guild system
  • New Hero - Tessa: Tessa is a 1000-year-old fox demon, who can charm her enemies and capture their souls
  • Veteran rewards: Players who previously purchased the game will receive in game gold equivalent to what edition they currently possess and more
  • PlayStation 5 player exclusive items
  • Anniversary in-game events and rewards
  • Collaboration with Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains (based on a famous Chinese painting)
  • 3D Lobby: Players can grapple around and explore while queuing
  • New season skin theme: Classic of Mountains and Seas and the god of four seasons
  • XGP Benefits: Players with a NARAKA account via Xbox Game Pass will be automatically upgraded from the Standard Edition to the new Deluxe Edition containing in-game rewards
