NARAKA: BLADEPOINT Update – June 5th, 2025

NARAKA: BLADEPOINT - Yeeeeee

Dear players,
The servers of NARAKA: BLADEPOINT will be suspended for maintenance from June 4th, 2025 23:00 (UTC) to June 5th, 2025 04:00 (UTC). We suggest you log out in advance and enter the game again after the maintenance.
The details for this update are as follows:
Brand New Content
I. Showdown Season 3.0: Windstorm
1. New Hero: Justina Gu
The Herald stirs. Ancient shadows awaken. Three legendary blades cross paths for the first time.
What alliance could bring together Justina Gu, the Saint Eagle of Holoroth, and the Wolf King of the Prairie against impossible odds?
The new Hero Justina Gu has now joined Showdown. Her blade weaves frost and shadow, cleansing corruption from every realm.

2. New Boss and New Chapter
Something sinister awakens in the silent Empyreal Village. Beneath twisted totem poles, a woman clad in wolf pelts emerges from the darkness...
Three hundred years of desert storms could not bury Sirius' fury—Huanyue, one of the elders of the Herald, walks among mortals once more.
The brand new Showdown series [Tenfold Doom: The Herald Elder Council] officially begins, with the new chapter [Howling Gale] now live!
//Dev Notes: We're streamlining our storytelling approach and update cadence. While keeping the same 4 stages per 2 seasons, we're now delivering a steady 2 stages each season for better pacing.
Plus, starting this season, every new stage's Easy mode is unlocked from the get-go; no requirements, no level gates. You can all enjoy the Showdown saga and face our latest bosses right away.

3. Trial Heroes and Team Support
(1) When teaming up with other players, you can select 2 heroes displayed in your teammate's profiles and their corresponding loadouts during the preparation phase. As teammates, they can also directly configure loadouts and provide these support heroes during the preparation phase. System trial heroes are also available when not in a team.
(2) Initial trial attempts are 2 per week. Upgrade your Showdown season level to unlock more attempts.
(3) Provide support heroes for Popularity points, Souljade Fragments, and Scented Sachet rewards.
(4) This feature is available in Normal/Hard stages, Doom mode, and Topaz Enigma Domain.
(5) Trial attempts and reward progress reset every Thursday at 4:00 AM.

4. New Showdown Journey Quests
Starting with [Windstorm Season], each new Showdown season will feature exclusive Journey Quests. The existing beginner's Journey Quests will still be available.
How to Unlock: After completing the beginner's Journey Quests, participate in Showdown to automatically unlock the Journey Quest of the current season.
Quest and Rewards: Within the limited event period after the season begins, complete any Showdown stage daily to claim daily rewards. Complete 7 days of quests to receive generous Journey rewards: powerful Souljade sets and precious Showdown resources—Flux Jade Shards.

5. Nirriti's Ruins and Yama's Abyss Reset
Yama's Abyss, Nirriti's Ruins, and season challenge progress and rewards have been reset.
Take on Yama's Abyss and Nirriti's Ruins this season for Splendor Treasure Choice Gift, Showdown Seal, Flux Shard, limited-edition avatars, and much more!

6. Brand-new Gameplay
(1) New "Element Surge" Souljades. Max out your elemental meter and unleash devastating power. Works with Ice, Thunder, and Poison builds.
(2) Bow and Musket now support Quick Counter.
(3) Ranged weapons now feature the "Cloudpiercer" mechanism. Build up your Deadeye meter through shooting, then enter Deadeye mode for advanced techniques. Bow and Musket lead the charge with weakness exploitation and signature Deadeye skills.
(4) Potential levels have been reset. We've overhauled all existing potential effects and added new ones for Element Surge and Deadeye, providing a wider range of combo selections!

7. Sense Level Redesigned as Showdown Level
Sense levels for Showdown Souljades and heroes are now unified as "Showdown Level", and we're merging Potential levels into it too.
Your maximum Sense level of Souljades in Might Season will be partially carried over and converted to your Showdown Level. levels 1050 and below don't transfer, but every 5 levels above 1050 becomes 1 Showdown Level (i.e., maxed Lv. 1120 becomes Lv. 15).
Earn Showdown XP through weekly Showdown quests or Fatigue usage to upgrade your Showdown Level. Higher levels mean more potential points and massive attribute boosts.
//Dev Notes: The new Showdown Level system removes barriers for newcomers.
Additionally, it eliminates the tedious grind when experimenting with different Souljade builds. No more wasted drops on upgrades, and there will be more recasting materials.

Feature Optimizations
I. Client Optimizations
Ray Tracing Experimental Version Now Available
After this update, ray tracing can be enabled in the graphics settings after activating DirectX 12 mode. When enabled, ray tracing global illumination and ray tracing reflections technologies will greatly enhance visual effects across all maps and modes, providing more realistic real-time lighting effects and a more immersive gaming experience.
(1) Ray tracing is currently only available on NVIDIA and AMD graphics cards that support ray tracing acceleration. In future versions, Intel graphics cards with ray tracing acceleration will support ray tracing after deep optimization at the driver level. Players are recommended to upgrade to the latest driver version for their graphics cards.
(2) Enabling ray tracing will incur some performance costs. This can be offset by using image enhancement features (DLSS, FSR, XeSS) and Frame Generation to improve performance and get a better experience.
(3) This update integrates NVIDIA DLSS ray reconstruction technology, which uses AI to denoise sampling results, generating higher quality pixels and improving ray-traced image quality. Players can enable ray reconstruction in the graphics settings after enabling ray tracing. This technology is currently only available on RTX 40 series and above graphics cards.
(4) Ray tracing is currently in experimental version and will continue to be optimized in future versions. If abnormal crashes occur with ray tracing enabled, players can disable it in the settings on the login screen.

II. In-Game
Standardized the speed of entering Blue Focus status during charging and successful charging in different frame rates.

Store Updates
I. New Items in Item Store
Newly added Legendary Item [Swordsman Crate] with a price of 120 Gold. Purchase Limit: 10. Grants a random unowned Howie & Landau Outfit, Weapon, Hairstyle or Accessory. Completing the collection unlocks Legendary Gesture Howie & Landau·Cyclone Rise. Can be claimed in Profile - Collections. After completion, a crate opened grants you Spectral Silk*240.

II. New Discounts
1. Newly added Legendary Rescue Effect [You Good?]. Standard price: 900 Gold; Now: 600 Gold.
2. Newly added Epic Kill Announcement [Paper Glider]. Standard price: 300 Gold; Now: 200 Gold.

III. New Items in the Gift Store
In the Gift Store, newly added:

Legendary Gestures [Playhouse·Right]. Redeemable by 270 Fragrant Jades.

Bug Fixes
I. Battle-related Bugs
1. Fixed an issue where outfit attack rotation could cause abnormal character model collision in specific cases.
2. Fixed an issue where players could release Ultimates not usable under attack while airborne after being hit by the combat item [Katana Tome].

II. Hero-related Bugs
Fixed an issue that would cause Temulch's Storm Prison's Slowed effect to be applied to Temulch's allies in some situations.

NARAKA: BLADEPOINT Update – April 17th, 2025

NARAKA: BLADEPOINT - Yeeeeee

Dear players,
The servers of NARAKA: BLADEPOINT will be suspended for maintenance from Apr 16th, 2025 23:00 (UTC) to Apr 17th, 2025 04:00 (UTC). We suggest you log out in advance and enter the game again after the maintenance.

The details for this update are as follows:

Brand New Content
I. New Showdown Gameplay: Tempered Inferno

In the Soul-forging Abyss hidden in the Shadowjade Mine, the "Chaos Furnace" that once refined the legendary weapons of the Herald used to be alight day and night. However, under the mad scheme of Omnius, a drastic change occurred.

After Omnius's plan to revert the Five Phases back to primordial chaos was foiled by the heroes, some formless chaotic Qi escaped and seeped into the Chaos Furnace. A bursting of energy flooded out because of the imbalanced Five Elements within, attracting countless evil spirits into action. Thus, a battle to protect the furnace began.

In this crisis, the heroes used Chaos Stones crafted by the Chaos Furnace to forge Curios imbued with the powers of Yin and Yang. These Curios then became their weapons to slay demons and eradicate evils.

However, as the energy of the Chaos Furnace continued to leak, the furnace fire gradually weakened. The heroes who sought more Curios could only wait for the Five Phases True Qi to return to balance on the Morus Isle before they could once again awaken the Furnace.

Defeat waves of enemies, claim numerous prizes, and revel in the power of the Curios!

II. New Showdown Item: Curio

Each hero has two Curio slots: Yin and Yang. One Curio can be equipped in each slot.

1. Crafting Curios

Chaos Stones, acquired in Tempered Inferno, can be used to craft Curios. There are two kinds of Curio crafting: Random Craft and Targeted Craft.

[Random Craft]:

[Random Craft] produces a random Curio of the current season, and builds XP to boost its Crafting level.

[Targeted Craft]:

Once you have raised a given Curio to Lv. 1, you'll be able to choose to craft that Curio using [Targeted Craft].

At the end of the season, Curios will be reclaimed, but Crafting Levels will be retained. In following seasons, players with Crafting levels will be able to craft Curios from past seasons. From time to time we will hold Rerun Events for players who missed out.

During the season, each Curio Crafting level you upgrade will increase the season progress by 1. Season progress rewards include Flux Shards, Curio crafting materials and more!

2. Curio Stars

Curios can be smelted into Chaos Extract, a resource used in leveling up Curios.

Each level gained grants an attribute of a random quality and type (that the Curio does not already have). A Curio can have at most 4 attributes.

3. Awakening Curios and Harmonic Balance

Extreme Curio raised to 3-Star level can be awakened with Tempered Essence.

If successful, the Curio gains random awakened attributes (these differ between Curios).

Failure will result in the loss of the lowest-quality or lowest-level attribute. You can still raise the Curio's stars to get a new attribute. Each failure boosts your awakening chance across all Curios.

With both an awakened Yin and Yang Curio, you unlock [Harmonic Balance] for all your heroes (whether you have the Curios equipped or not), boosting your Luck by 2,000, and your team's by 1,000.

Boosts can stack. Lasts until Tempered Inferno reopens next season.

Hero Adjustments
I. Tianhai

Adjusted the damage multiplier of Great Vajra's smash attack after seizing two enemies from 12.0 to 12.5.

II. Yueshan

1. Extended the duration of Defense Focus after landing from [Scorching Dash: Weaken] to cover the full recovery frames.

2. Slightly reduced the judgment scene height when Yueshan casts his ultimate.

//Dev Note: Since different maps feature various design styles, and real battle scenes tend to be more complex, it's difficult to establish a universal spatial judgment standard for casting transform ultimates. If the judgment is based solely on model size, it becomes easier to cast the ultimate, but this can lead to larger characters getting stuck in narrow doorways, unable to move freely in or out of the scene. On the other hand, increasing the judgment size ensures the space meets battle requirements after transformation, but it also makes successful transformation more difficult. Therefore, after comparing multiple scenes, we decided to slightly reduce the judgment height to accommodate more transformation scenarios.

III. Temulch

1. For the ultimate [Storm Prison: Reload]: When Temulch uses the reloaded windballs after passing through a wind wall, his skill will not enter CD.

2. When Temulch already has windballs in store, passing through a wind wall will not generate additional windballs.
