While journeying on the path of the Righteous Season, the flexible and versatile [Heng Sword] and Shayol Wei, the shrewd Golden Keeper who can control the power of the Black Tortoise entered the fray, adding new elements to the NARAKA's combat.
Novel and innovative gameplay is important to us as well, so we added Heroes Assemble to Justice Chambers, so that every hero can experience the fun of teaming up to beat Omnius, and added the Songbird Arena so that the clash and clang of sword fighting could add to the joyful atmosphere on Fairyland Penglai.
In addition, we had our crossover event with Soul Land, launching exquisite crossover skins - Tang San·Temulch, Xiao Wu·Kurumi, Huo Yuhao·Akos Hu, Tang Wutong·Feria Shen, the Soul Land·Trident Weapon Skin... and added new Soul Beasts, Soul Bones and a rich variety of other elements, so that every hero has a more immersive crossover event experience.

NARAKA: BLADEPOINT Banned Players List 4-2
Dear players,
NARAKA: BLADEPOINT is committed to creating a fair and healthy competitive environment. We have not only used new anti-cheat technologies, but also established special cheat-reporting reward activities to encourage those players who defend the fairness with us. From now on, players who make outstanding contributions to reporting cheats will get the Legendary spear skin 'Righteous Polearm' .
More details: 1. Players who successfully reported 1 time will get [Immortal Treasure] X1;
2. Players who successfully report 10 times with low misreport rate will get [Immortal Treasure] X10 (In order to ensure the efficiency of detecting, please report reasonably);
3. Players who have successfully reported for many times or made great contributions to anti-cheat will get the Legendary spear skin [Righteous Polearm] X1.
We strongly recommend that players report via in-game report system, so that we can confirm the cheat as soon as possible and record successful report times for you!
From 3.25 to 3.31, there are 8 players who have successfully reported the cheating or hacking in total and get the reward [Righteous Polearm]! We hope that more players can become the Justice Supporter on the Morus Isle in the future.
C***n N***ッ H***i f***양 R***Z H***y 幹***哈 E***ỏ
From 3.25 to 3.31, the development team has banned 209 cheated players. The list is as follows:
It’s been a minute! We’re excited to bring you a special video where the developer spills all the juicy details about Season 12 and the upcoming changes. You can also check out the key sections covered in the video below:
https://youtu.be/HUZcqE6RhQ0
The New Potential System
To reduce the complexity of the PVP potential system we have undertaken a massive rework. We hope to give players more potential combinations in PVP mode to enhance strategic diversity.
The new potential system will be unlocked at level 5 and comes with 1 potential point. Every subsequent 2 levels will earn you 1 potential point, up to a maximum of 18 potential points. If you are new to NARAKA we will also share some handy recommended builds to help you on your PVP journey.
Hero Skill Adjustment in Season 12
We will be introducing skill reworks for previous heroes in upcoming patches. Our goal is to preserve and integrate the gameplay as much as possible while ensuring that the adjusted skills are better suited for the current battle environment.
Here's a sneak peek of the skill changes for some of our heroes in Season 12:
Hadi:
Combining his F1 and F3 variants into a new skill with the default effect of F1. Adjustments to Ult 2 and 3 for improved balance.
Tianhai:
Removing Divine Bell: Blast (F3 skill) and ult 2 (grab teammates). Strengthening Vajra combos to enhance his threat level.
Yueshan:
Merging F3 and F2 skills and incorporating the Terror effect into skill 2 variant. Optimizing skill casting and values. Removing ult 2 variants.
Tessa:
Removing skill 3 and ult 3 variants.
Extended Testing Period For New Heroes
We will be extending the testing period for new heroes and opening the server one patch earlier. This means that players will have the opportunity to experience and provide feedback on the new heroes before their official launch. This will also give us more data to adjust the balance of the new heroes based on player feedback.
We hope that you will be excited to try out our new hero - Lyam Liu the Ascendant Lodestar - in the Test Server on April 18th. Stay tuned for more details about him, his story, and his abilities!
Two New Casual Modes
In our first update of Season 12, we will introduce a new mode: Hot Potato Counter Mode. In Hot Potato Counter Mode, the criteria for victory will be to eliminate your opponents with a ball on the field.
You can use normal attacks, focus attacks, counters and hero skills to control the state and direction of the ball. If the ball turns red, it means it's time to strike. You can choose to press the right button to pass the ball to your teammates, or you can choose other actions to throw the ball at the enemy directly in front of you. The speed of the ball will get faster and faster as you pass it again and again!
Unlike other game modes, Hot Potato Counter is turn-based. The team that accumulates the most points over a set of rounds wins. Points are awarded for hitting and eliminating other players in each round. Weary from your battles in Morus Isle? Come and experience a different kind of rush in the new Hot Potato Counter Mode!
In addition, to Hot Potato Counter Mode we are looking into adding another mode that focuses players into two teams and they duke it out using their ultimates. To start, it will have Tianhai, Feria, and Yueshan as playable heroes! Be sure to stay tuned to our channels for more details.
Mode Changes: Immortal War
To improve the experience overall of Immortal War, as well as to add some additional excitement we are making a couple of changes.
First, we will limit the highest tier level for equipment found in stashes to Rare. This will require that you visit Rift Dealers to get Epic armor and weapons. Second, we are increasing the Dark Tide Coins gained on kills and this increase grows over time. Teams that are playing well can kill their opponents, gain coins, and reap even greater power. Third, the Cave Key will now be available at the Rift Dealer with the cave now featuring better rewards and an extra Morus’ Blessing.
You can try out these changes in the test server on April 3rd.
Festive Events
Festival of Water
Get ready to celebrate the Festival of Water from April 11th to April 25th! During this lively event, the Swarm in the game will transform into Hydro-Swarm, playfully spraying water at players. You can engage in quests and complete them to unlock exciting event rewards, including a water element-related rescue effect, a unique pose, or a special kill announcement.
