The Naraka: Bladepoint end-game was launched in August 2021, integrating the martial arts action competitive battle royale gameplay, and was called martial arts battle royale by players. Less than 2 years after the game was launched, the sales of the buyout version exceeded 20 million copies. And after it was converted to a free-to-play model in 2023, the global player base exceeded 40 million in 3 months, doubling in number.
