It takes a lot to stand out in the crowded battle royale genre. Originally only including shooters, more recent titles have since ditched guns entirely. A good example of this is Fall Guys, as well as Spellbreak, and Tetris 99. However, while we've seen the genre evolve to feature gameplay outside of shooting other players down until you're the last man standing, blades haven't really been utilized as much. At least, until now.
24 Entertainment's Naraka: Bladepoint is the newest battle royale title to hook players in by literally letting them use grappling hooks and featuring a nuanced combat system that's quite unlike anything out there right now. Is There a Naraka Bladepoint Trailer Available? https://youtu.be/CsJgyqmPXcw Technically, there isn't. 24 Entertainment is yet to upload an official trailer ahead of the game's release date later this 2021. However, there are tons of videos featuring everything from gameplay, beta highlights, and so much more, on the game's official YouTube channel.
We recommend checking the videos out to get an idea about what Naraka Bladepoint is like. What is the Naraka Bladepoint Gameplay Like? Naraka Bladepoint starts off just like any other battle royale game. You're dropped into a map with up to 59 other players as you (and your squad if you're playing with friends) try to scavenge for anything from weapons to armor, consumables, as well as Souljades that can add powerful special moves while also preparing for the inevitable player encounter. Naturally, there's a bubble that will slowly close down and constrict the playing field, limiting where all players can go until only one is left standing.
While we did mention that Naraka: Bladepoint will feature close melee combat, there are ranged weapons in the game as well. You can pick up anything from rifles to cannons, bows, and repeating crossbows. However, the game's ranged combat feels nowhere near as satisfying as fighting it out in the melee range. What's particularly interesting about fighting against opponents in Naraka: Bladepoint is how the combat system is both simple and complicated at the same time.
