Naruka Bladepoint just got a tasty update and there’s a ton of new content incoming. That the game is plagued by cheaters seems to be the biggest gripe if you check out its recent Steam reviews and the devs are currently releasing weekly lists of banned players to show they are attempting to combat it.

The patch adds two limited-time events, Dreamlit Whispers and Isle of Rising Tides, opens another run of PlayStation Tournaments and Sky-high Racing, and makes a batch of hero, mode, and client-side changes across the battle royale.

Naruka Bladepoint June 5th patch highlights

The main new additions are the Match & Crush-style Dreamlit Whispers event and Isle of Rising Tides, which asks players to gather Drifting Bottles, Remnant Pages, and later Merfolk Scales for rewards.

On the balance side, Shayol Wei, Matari, Lannie, Kurumi, Xunhuan Li, Temulch, Akos Hu, and Zenda Wu all get tweaks, while The Evolution gets new Techniques and a mid-game Spirit Well. Rift Traversal gains downloadable match replays, new Amulets, tighter Celestia Armor rules, and equipment balance changes, while the PC client adds NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 and Intel XeSS 3 support. There is also a new Lucky Wheel, fresh Tessa, Lannie, Fan, and Tara Gan cosmetics, and a couple of hero bug fixes.

Artifacts adrift from distant seas have washed upon Fairyland Penglai; above Perdoria, a star array dormant for a millennium has reignited. Both anomalies may point to the same unknown land.

Hero Adjustments
