Chinese developer 24 Entertainment has announced that it’s bringing Naraka: Bladepoint to the PlayStation 5.

Naraka: Bladepoint is a fantasy battle-royale game, which a heavy leaning toward melee combat. It also features a nifty grappling hook, which you can use to swing about. It is currently in beta on PC, and is out on August 12.

IGN has released a preview video, in which the game is running on a PS5. At the end of the video, a subtitle reads, “Console versions in development.” We don’t know which consoles it will be coming out on, but the PS5 seems a safe bet.

Check out the video:

The description reads:

“Naraka: Bladepoint’s roster is packed with powerful characters, each equipped with special abilities. It’ll also introduce a brand-new resurrection system. Transform into a gigantic Vajra Warrior and prepare to destroy your enemies.

“Naraka: Bladepoint will release on PC via Steam and Epic Games Store on August 12, 2021. Its console versions, including PlayStation 5, are currently in development.”
