After first launching on PC in August 2021 and making the jump to Xbox 10 months later, Netease and 24 Entertainment's melee-focused battle royale Naraka: Bladepoint is finally coming to PlayStation 5 on July 13. On the same day, the game will also officially switch to a free-to-play model across all platforms.

Both announcements came during the Naraka Fest livestream, which celebrated both the game's upcoming second anniversary and a new milestone of 20 million unique players. The switch to F2P will also add cross-platform play across all formats, which includes the new PlayStation 5 version.

All players who have purchased the game previously will be given in-game gold equivalent to the edition they own. Those who picked up the game on Xbox Game Pass will automatically be upgraded to the Ultimate Edition.
