- **added** — Added new hero Ye Xiu with combat mechanics built around rapid movement, counterattacks, and flexible combo chains
- **added** — Added Kaleidoscope Parasol, the first transforming weapon that can freely cycle between Parasol, Shield, and Axe forms during combat

##### **A Fast, Unpredictable New Fighter**

Ye Xiu’s skill set has been carefully designed to reflect the tactical approach of his original character, making him far more than a simple cosmetic reskin. His combat mechanics are built around rapid movement, counterattacks, and flexible combo chains, while offering both powerful area-of-effect damage and impressive single-target burst.

This makes him one of the few truly well-rounded heroes in NARAKA: BLADEPOINT, delivering exceptional versatility with virtually no weaknesses.

##### **NARAKA’s First Transforming Weapon**

The Kaleidoscope Parasol is the first weapon in NARAKA: BLADEPOINT that can freely cycle between multiple forms during combat.

Players can switch between Parasol, Shield, and Axe forms to adapt to different battlefield situations, moving between flexible attacks, defensive options, and powerful close-range strikes.

##### **A Five-Year Legacy of "Unfettered" Spirit**

The inclusion of Ye Xiu marks a thematic milestone for Naraka: Bladepoint. Much like Ye Xiu’s journey in the iconic anime series, The King’s Avatar, starting from zero to reclaim glory, for half a decade, 24 Entertainment has worked to demonstrate that Chinese martial arts hold a legitimate place within the competitive gaming landscape. This update serves as a tribute to that shared spirit of persistence and the pursuit of glory.

Log in to NARAKA: BLADEPOINT on July 30 to claim Ye Xiu for free and unleash his fast, fluid combat with the transforming Kaleidoscope Parasol.
