NARAKA ditches swords for sci-fi in April Fool’s event
Breakout battle royale hit gets a deadly glow-up.
24 Entertainment, Hangzhou — April 3 | For a limited time only, in a battle royale set far, far away, NARAKA: BLADEPOINT fans will finally fulfil a long-time wish. Those who launch into the game will get the chance to unlock an exciting new weapon, inspired by a certain sci-fi icon. Watch Viper Ning wield this powerful new addition to NARAKA’s arsenal in the trailer below.
To celebrate April Fool’s day, the clash of blades will be drowned out by the familiar hum and crackle of deadly lightsabers, bathing the battlefield in their warm blue glow. Swapping the melee weapons and mythic powers of NARAKA: BLADEPOINT for something a little more other worldly, players can get access to this exclusive skin for the Longsword by randomly opening chests and crushing items during gameplay. Why not add some interstellar style to your Forerunner loadout? Just don’t get cocky; this item will only be available until April 4th before vanishing into hyperspace.
For those who manage to unlock this exclusive reward, it will make a fine addition to their collection as the war rages on in NARAKA: BLADEPOINT. There are other April Fool’s items to discover too, including quirky outfit options such as the funny canine headwear.
Having recently kicked off Season 7: Untamed and welcoming Akos Hu, the title’s fifteenth playable character, there’s plenty of surprises still in store for 2023.
