NARAKA: BLADEPOINT Update – June 5th, 2025

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.

Optimized how Almighty Generals' [Rampage]'s hits are adjudicated when hitting enemies who are in mid-air or grounded.

II. Akos Hu
1. [Roar: Blast]'s range and knockback speed have both been increased when fully charged. Additionally, slightly increased the time that enemies who are knocked back by this skill spend in mid-air.

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.

Bug Fixes
I. Battle-related Bugs

2. Fixed an issue where players could release Ultimates not usable under attack while airborne after being hit by the combat item [Katana Tome].
