As with all battle royale games, much of the fun inNaraka: Bladepointcomes from playing with friends. Although the game supports crossplay, some players are still unsure how to invite friends toNaraka: Bladepointlobbies, especially those on different platforms. This guide explains how to playNaraka: Bladepointwith friends and how the game’s crossplay mechanics work.
How Crossplay Works in Naraka: Bladepoint
Naraka: Bladepointallows cross-platform play on all available platforms, including PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S & X, and PlayStation 5. Players with the crossplay settings enabled on their device can form parties with their friends on other platforms with no restrictions.
In the early release days,a bug would stop Steam players from playing with playerson other devices. However, recent patches seem to have resolved the issue, and Steam players, too, can now utilize the game’s crossplay features with no problem.
How to Invite Friends in Naraka: Bladepoint
To invite a friend inNaraka: Bladepoint, tap the friends’ icon at the top right corner of the lobby—look for a person’s silhouette. In the next menu, click the Steam, Xbox, or PlayStation logo to see your friends list. Finally, click on the desired player and select “Invite to Party.” Once the other player accepts your invitation, they will join your lobby.
Note that, unlike mostother battle royale games, your ally’s avatar won’t show up next to yours once they join their game. The only way to ensure you’re successfully teamed up with them is by checking the player box in the screen’s bottom left corner. If the friend’s name is displayed in this box, they can join the game with you.
Crossplay Not Working in Naraka: Bladepoint
Most crossplay issues stem from two main reasons: 1)Crossplay is disabled on your device, or 2) you and your friend are not on the same server. Both conditions must be met to play with others inNaraka: Bladepoint. Ensure that crossplay features are enabled and that you and your friends are all on the same server before trying to join the same lobby.
You can change the server from the title menu before starting the game. The option can be seen in the lower-left corner of the screen.
