NARAKA: Bladepoint is a 60-player battle royale focused on melee combat with martial arts-inspired movement and a rock-paper-scissors counter system. What sets it apart from other BRs is the grappling hook that lets every player Spider-Man across the map and the deep melee system where timing parries and focus strikes matters more than gear. Each hero has unique abilities that change team fight dynamics, and the Soul Jade system adds RPG-style buffs found throughout the match. Regular seasonal updates add new heroes, weapons, and maps.
NARAKA: Bladepoint features distinct areas with increasing difficulty. This guide covers every major location in progression order — what to do, what to get, and when to move on. For the step-by-step path, see our walkthrough.

- Read the walkthrough — Our walkthrough provides exact progression milestones for each area.
- Don't rush — Clearing an area fully gives more resources than speedrunning two areas.
