Naraka: Bladepoint, a previously exclusive game for Xbox consoles, will be releasing on the PS5 on July 13. This melee-focused battle royale game first became available on Xbox Series X and later on Xbox One. Additionally, it was initially launched as a day one Xbox Game Pass game, gaining popularity but not sustaining it. With its arrival on the PS5, Naraka: Bladepoint has the opportunity to reach a wider audience, potentially ensuring its longevity in the battle royale genre.
The game Naraka: Bladepoint will be making its PS5 debut on July 13th, and will also be available as a free-to-play game. This means that even Xbox players without an Xbox Game Pass subscription will be able to play Naraka: Bladepoint. In celebration, the game will be introducing new content, including exclusive items for PlayStation 5 users. Along with these exclusive items, Naraka: Bladepoint will be introducing a new game mode called Capture the Spirit Well, a new weapon called Dual Halberds, a new playable character named Tessa, rewards for those who purchased the game before it became free-to-play, a 3D lobby, and more. It will be interesting to see if this new content will attract new players and bring back those who have moved on to other games.
Xbox gamers may feel envious of the PS5 exclusive items arriving in Naraka: Bladepoint, but they can anticipate the arrival of other exciting new content for the game. Those who purchased Naraka: Bladepoint on Xbox will have the opportunity to acquire veteran rewards, while those who played the game through Xbox Game Pass can also expect plenty of exciting additions. Players who experienced Naraka: Bladepoint via Xbox Game Pass will be upgraded to the Deluxe Edition, along with its associated rewards.
Naraka: Bladepoint had a promising start and is poised for a potential resurgence. It joins the growing list of former Xbox console exclusives that have transitioned to PS5, leading us to speculate about the potential switch of other games in the near future.
Naraka: Bladepoint is available now for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X with a PS5 version dropping July 13.
