The latest Naraka Bladepoint patch notes are in, and they introduce a ton of new events to dive into. They’re all limited-time, so we recommend getting stuck in ASAP to ensure you don’t miss out.
Elsewhere, new hero Cyra has received a bit of balancing to help her perform as intended. We’ve also seen adjustments to various weapons to help them perform better.
Rounding out the update are a number of new store items, bug fixes, and some tweaks to various settings menu. Strap in, and let’s take a look.
Limited Time Events
There are a whopping four new events running concurrently in Naraka Bladepoint right now, as well as the extension of a certain fan favourite. Yes, Phantom Rave is sticking around a bit longer.
Let’s take a look at the events in more detail:
Have a Nice Dream
- Begins: November 14
- Ends: December 5 at 8:00 PM UTC
This event will unlock slowly, with seven ornaments periodically unlocking. Each time an ornament unlocks, you have to complete three quests.
Beat them, and you unlock Teddy Knights as a reward. These are a brand new currency that you can redeem for additional rewards.
J Cup 2024 and Warriors of Faith
- Begins: November 22 at 8:00 PM UTC
- Ends: December 18 at 8:00 PM UTC
J Cup is an esports tournament that sees the best players duking it out for supreme dominance.
However, if you didn’t quite make it into the tournament, you can still get involved. That’s thanks to the Warriors of Faith event, which challenges you to complete daily quests and watch matches to earn additional rewards.
Daily quests reward Tickets, while watching matches provides you with Fan Lightsticks. These are virtual currencies that you can spend on additional rewards.
The number of Fan Lightsticks you can earn ramps up as the J Cup progresses. Here’s how many you can earn per day during each stage:
Stage | Fan Lightsticks Earned Per Day |
Group | 2 |
Scoring | 5 |
Grand Final | 10 |
Lastly, if you participate in match prediction events you can earn additional Fan Lightsticks and an exclusive themed Banner J Cup weapon skin.
Divine Convergence
- Begins: November 22 at 8:00 PM UTC
- Ends: December 18 at 8:00 PM UTC
This simple event challenges you to collect cosmetics for various champions in exchange for HP, which you can spend on the Road to Glory for rewards.
To help you progress, you can purchase cosmetics you don’t currently own in the store.
Road to Glory
We mentioned the Road to Glory in the previous event, as these two are tied. This is a web event that challenges you to complete quests, earn Stamina, and get rewards.
Phantom Rave
- Extended to: December 4
Due to popular demand, Phantom Rave is sticking around until December 4. Not only that, but Naraka Bladepoint has unleashed a brand new reward: Gesture (Moving Dance), which provides you with a whole new dance move.
Hero Balancing
Two heroes get a balancing update in this patch, with the biggest changes coming to Cyra.
There’s now a slight delay when interrupting Cyra’s Light Beam, and her two Light’s Mercy Ultimates now start faster. Cyra can also dodge faster while using her ultimates.
Both ultimates also now provide a greater Light Shield in Trios.
Kylin Zhang
It’s just a small update for Kylin Zhang. The sound effects you hear while using the Qilin Slash Ultimates has been optimised. You also now hear an audio reminder when it’s about to run out.
Weapon Adjustments
There’s a change that affects all melee weapons in Naraka Bladepoint. This optimises the interrupt timing when transitioning from a counterstrike to a jump.
Katana will now no longer fail to trigger Clash when your Thunderstrike is hit by a Blue Focus move.
Similarly, Dual Halberds will have the same effect but when Hooked Wings is hit by Blue Focus moves.

Naraka Bladepoint Patch Notes – October 31, 2024
Naraka Bladepoint’s Halloween update includes a brand new hero, Cyra, a new mode for filthy casuals, and a bunch of exciting events.
There’s even space for a nifty new Aurora Treasure, which you can purchase to get new hero Cyra’s exclusive outfit. It’s pretty flashy, with wings and everything, so not for the faint of heart.
Let’s take a look at the full patch notes so you know exactly what’s in store.

New Hero Cyra
Cyra has officially arrived in the world of Naraka Bladepoint, providing healing and support to herself and allies. Her abilities allow her to chuck orbs at allies and enemies to heal or damage them, as well as levitate into the sky. Here she can continue to heal or deal DPS, as well as blind her enemies.
In terms of lore, here’s what the Naraka Bladepoint team has to say about the new hero:
Raised with a strong faith as an orphan, her beliefs were shaken after uncovering a dark secret involving her orphanage, leading to a dramatic awakening of her latent powers during a fatal ritual, where she lost her memory.
Determined, she embarked on a quest, eventually reaching Morus Isle.
Aurora Treasure
- Begins: October 31
- Ends: January 22 at 00:00 UTC
For 360 Gold, you can grab the Aurora Treasure, which has a chance to drop Cyra’s exlusive outfit, Wings of Light, or her weapon skin, Koi Flow. These provide special cosmetic effects when in and out of combat.
For a limited time, you also have the chance to earn the Autumn Tale and Twilight outfits.
Hungry Dragons Mode
What a name. The Hungry Dragons Mode is aimed at casual players, who can queue solo or as a trio. It’s a free-for-all though, and kind of plays like a 3D version of Vampire Survivors.
You have to dash around the arena, collecting Dragon Orbs. This allows you to level up, increasing the size of your tail. You’re a dragon, you see, and you’re hungry.
The bigger your tail, the more powerful you are. You can then attack enemies to reduce the size of their tail, earning Dragon Scales, which provide you with upgrades.
You win or lose depending on your total score at the end of the match, so there’s more to it than simply surviving.
Phantom Rave, Everglowing Aurora, and Halloween Sale
- Begins: October 31
- Ends: November 13
Now we’re talking. Naraka Bladepoint is introducing a series of special Halloween events, which all kick off today and ends on November 13.
First up is Phantom Rave. You simply have to participate in Showdown, Hungry Dragons, or Dance Parties to collect Spooky Hats. When the event ends, you can swap the Spooky Hats for Tae.
Everglowing Aurora sees you complete Daily and Event Quests to get Cyra Trial Vouchers and Golden Twigs, the latter of which you can redeem for additional rewards.
Wrapping up the Halloween fun is a sale in the store. You ca grab one of four different discount vouchers, which let you save 30% on Legendary items.
These include:
- Legendary Outfit
- Legendary Weapon
- Legendary Accessory
- Legendary Item
