Naraka: Bladepoint announces upcoming events for Spring Festival update

24 Entertainment, in collaboration with NetEase Games, has unveiled the specifics about the upcoming Spring Festival update for the game Naraka: Bladepoint.

Essentially, the team announced that they’re adding a new character named Lannie, as well as a “Heaven and Earth” themed loot box, and multiple live events where players can collect desired in-game goodies and extend New Year’s greetings.

Check out the trailer below, and then we’ll get into more info.


 

Details on the new hero, Lannie, then:

The standout feature of the NARAKA: BLADEPOINT Spring Festival update is the introduction of a new character, Lannie, who specializes in ancient sorcery. Unfortunately, this gift came with a tragic curse that claimed the lives of those dear to her, such as her parents. She was saved and brought up by an astronomer, and eventually ended up on Morus Isle. Driven to alter her fate, Lannie is now participating in the trials to obtain the Mask of Eternity.

In the heat of combat, Lannie can employ her unique fabric to shove adversaries back and become invisible or jump for swift maneuvers, launching assaults to lift enemies off their feet. Her ultimate skill taps into a trick ball made of silk, inflicting immense harm through moves such as Mighty Smash and Aerial Strike.

Lannie’s fighting technique is influenced by the age-old Chinese acrobatics, seamlessly incorporating classic performance elements into her battle strategies. Our goal is to familiarize players with the charm and enigma of Chinese cultural traditions, as we believe that Lannie’s captivating combat style will enhance the festive spirit during Spring Festival celebrations.

Moving on, here’s the Spring Festival themed events:

During the Spring Festival, a variety of thrilling activities are in store for the participants. Modeled after the Wealth God, there’s a unique Wishing Event that encourages players to journey to the mystical land of Penglai. Here, they can express their heartfelt wishes before the divine entity and collect uncommon game items. These items will not only bring good fortune but also promote prosperity for the upcoming year.

Players can reap substantial benefits each day by logging into the game during the Spring Festival. Furthermore, there’s an exciting new feature where players can gather digital red envelopes and secure an array of in-game treasures, making the celebration more surprising and rewarding than ever!
