Naraka: Bladepoint in 2026 – New Seasons, New Heroes, New Modes, and an Upgraded Wuxia Universe on the horizon!

NetEase Games and 24 Entertainment have unveiled a comprehensive 2026 roadmap for Naraka: Bladepoint during the recent Naraka Fest, detailing an array of upcoming content and innovations while highlighting the recently launched Season 19 – setting the stage for a year of deeper immersion and enriched player engagement.

Naraka Season 19 Skybreak Treasure Scroll has officially begun, introducing significant content across multiple fronts. A major highlight is the debut of Naraka‘s first Shuffle Map—The Maelstrom. This dynamically assembled battleground is composed of fragmented terrain boards, ensuring a unique layout in every match.

The Maelstrom introduces two core mechanics: Chaos Sea and Omni Realms. Players should first collect Divine Armament Fragments in the Omni Realms to forge powerful Divine Weapons. These weapons help reduce the constraints imposed by the Chaos Sea, allowing players to gain a strategic edge in combat. Additionally, Naraka Fest confirmed that another new map of 

Herald’s Trial will arrive in Summer 2026, further diversifying gameplay possibilities.

Beyond the new map, Season 19 will also introduce the mysterious new hero Zenda Wu in February 2026, alongside the new ranged weapon Dual Flintlocks, adding fresh tactical depth to combat. Cosmetic updates include the highly anticipated Iron Wan Extreme Outfit and a new line of regular in-game treasures.

Wuxia Expansion: New Game Modes and Cross-Media Collaborations

Naraka: Bladepoint continues to deepen its Wuxia roots through content and collaborations. The Wuxia-inspired tomb-raider mode, Rift Traversal, will launch a new story chapter titled River Runs Red, set in a Southern Song Dynasty–themed map featuring Dual-Realm Traversal gameplay. 

The title will also expand its Wuxia IP partnerships throughout 2026. A third collaboration with acclaimed Wuxia author Gu Long is scheduled for Summer 2026, alongside an upcoming partnership with Wuxia-themed anime –  the Naraka Wuxia Universe.

As Season 19 unfolds and the 2026 plan begins, it is anticipated that Naraka will bring players continuous content and optimizations, ensuring that the world of Naraka: Bladepoint remains as dynamic and engaging as the combat itself.
