The most popular battle royale you're not playing goes F2P next week

NetEase's mystical, martial arts-focused battle royale game Naraka: Bladepoint is going free-to-play next week. The game is marking its PS5 launch by throwing its doors wide open, letting everyone give it a try without forking over its current $20/£18 price tag. The change takes effect on Thursday, July 13.

NetEase has put together a whole FAQ to explain the decision to go F2P around two years after the game's 2021 release, but the key bit of info is probably this: "All in-game content is available to free players, including all game modes, events, cosmetics, character customization," so you won't be siloed off from paid players if you download the game after July 13.
