Naraka: Bladepoint has revealed the first gameplay for its new hero, Hadi Ismail, and he looks extremely graceful and acrobatic.
In a brand new trailer released earlier today, we're introduced to "the Visionary" himself, who fights with mechanical wings and arm-mounted blades that look pretty darn sharp.
At the outset of the trailer, Hadi Ismail is seeking the source of corrupted water, which seemingly then manifests itself in the form of undead-like warriors.
He takes to the skies with his mechanical Icarus-style wings, which then turn out to form the basis of his Naraka: Bladepoint combat style as well.
In fights, Hadi Ismail can use his wings to soar and glide around the battlefield, delivering devastating blows before quickly rising into the sky again.
He can also make use of a grappling hook that pulls enemies towards him, so if your opponents are trying to escape, you can deploy your hook to pull them back in.
Hadi Ismail joins the Naraka: Bladepoint roster on November 15th. He'll slot in alongside other fighters like Zai, Wuchen, and Valda Cui.
If you're unfamiliar, Naraka: Bladepoint is a melee-focused battle royale game in which players must do battle using martial arts-style move sets.
You can take on other players either by yourself or as part of a trio, and the game has an ever-expanding roster of characters to choose from, each with their own special moves.
Naraka: Bladepoint has crossed over with a number of major games and franchises, too, including Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty and NieR.
Initially, Naraka: Bladepoint was released as a premium product, but the game went free-to-play in July this year alongside the release of its PlayStation 5 port.
You can play Naraka: Bladepoint right now on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox consoles. Stay tuned for more news on all things Naraka.
