Dear players,
The servers of NARAKA: BLADEPOINT will be suspended for maintenance from Jul. 8th, 2025 23:00 (UTC) to Jul. 9th, 2025 04:00 (UTC). We suggest you log out in advance and enter the game again after maintenance is complete.
The details for this update are as follows:
Brand New Content
I. The brand-new treasure hunting mode, Rift Traversal, is now available (Trailblazer Season)
Ancient deities stir. Rifts tear the world apart, and heroes converge upon this calamity.
Your goal: scavenge lost supplies, defeat opponents, and escape safely through Rift Gates.
Whatever you extract from the rifts enters your personal out-of-game storeroom and becomes resources for your next match.
Basic Rules
(1) Collect lost Relics across the fractured lands of Holoroth in Rift Traversal.
(2) While treasure hunting, you must deal with monsters and beware of prowling "counterparts". Bring your Divine Armory or travel light, but rebirth means losing everything you carry.
(3) Find Rift Gates on the map, awaken the Aegis Tree, restore yin-yang balance, and escape with your plundered treasures intact.
Out-of-Game Systems
(1) Preparation
Purchase and equip supplies in the Preparation interface before entering rifts. You'll spawn into matches with your prepared loadout.
(2) Storeroom
Store supplies extracted from matches in your storeroom, where you can organize and sell these resources.
(3) New Assist Gear "Mole Hook"
Switch between Grappling Hook and Mole Hook assist gear during Preparation or at Rift Dealers in-game. Both consume hook items.
a. Stealth Movement: Use on the ground to burrow and move stealthily. While burrowed, you can organize your bag, drop items, and even search for treasures underground.
b. Aerial Rush: Rush in any direction, even skyward.
c. Leap: Press dodge while burrowing to jump over obstacles and gain brief invulnerability at the cost of Stamina.
d. Underground Moves: Horizontal strike charges toward crosshair, vertical strike performs Uppercut Slash. You can charge underground, waiting for the right opportunity to burst forth!
In-Game Mechanics
(1) Spawn: After Preparation, you will spawn randomly on one of the map's two sides.
(2) Resource Searching: Interact with in-game objects to search for resources. Interactables have highlight outlines.
(3) Precious Resources: Drunken Fire Crates are precious, limited resources on the map. They are more likely to contain high-quality Relics.
(When opening some Drunken Fire Crates, you must seize the moment and use counters to weaken their seal meter.)
(4) Weather:
a. Blizzard: You build Coldness during blizzards. Your Rage is continuously drained when you reach a certain amount of Coldness. Find Campfires for warmth. Blizzards also spawn frozen treasures across the battlefield.
b. Sandstorm: Crouch to hide in the dust during Sandstorm for ambushes and retreats.
(5) In-Game Quests:
As matches progress, quests activate across the map.
a. Contract: Defeat specific targets like the heathens at Yushan Ruins, the horse bandits at Plumed Castle, and the shadow guards at the City of Tang per quest requirements.
b. Valiant Challenge: Reveals your position once picked up, but scouts for enemies within a certain range every once in a while. You have to survive for a certain period of time.
c. Revenge: Deal 1,000 damage to your teammate's killer and your party will gain 1 additional rebirth (Requires one of your teammates to have been eliminated).
d. Flag: Escort your party's flagbearer, and head for the target Spirit Well zone. Defend the area until progress reaches 100% to complete the quest and receive Drunken Fire Crates.
e. Cargo Escort: Capture and escort the Golden Roc to the station to obtain Drunken Fire Crates.
f. Clear: Clear out
