Naraka: Bladepoint is taking a new spin on the battle royale genre by focusing on samurai-style fighting, as opposed to gun shooting. But just like many before it, the game’s publisher implemented the strategic use of sponsored streams with top content creators to gain exposure. The game was officially released on Wednesday, Aug. 11. And over the weekend, a handful of top streamers, including Sodapoppin, Lirik, Shroud, Summit1g, and TheGrefg, tried it out. While most top streamers had sponsored stream segments that lasted around two hours, Sodapoppin and Lirik gave the

Though its greatest success is the way that it skillfully pulls from classics of the genre while delivering a decidedly modern adventure. More than most hero-collector RPGs, Epic Odyssey trusts its players to explore at their own pace. For example, you’ll sometimes come across enemies
