Naraka: Bladepoint was recently released on Xbox One X/S after a year-long successful run on the PC via Microsoft Store and Steam. This success is partly due to the fun mechanics of this 60-person battle royale and mostly due to its colorful cast of characters.
The game has a total of 11 different characters, all of which can fight against each in solo or trio battles. While some characters excel on their own, others do even better as a team. Characters can be chosen as per a player’s playstyle and each one of them plays differently from the rest.
Every character has two skills, a basic attacking skill, and an ultimate skill. Each of these skills has two variations, depending on how far the players themselves have mastered these skills by completing unique cultivation skills for each character.
To know more about these characters, we have decided to showcase all of them, along with their strengths, weaknesses, and what makes them stand out. Extensive knowledge of the skills and abilities of these characters is integral for players to know which character will be their main in this game.
