“Blood Strike MENA: A New Chapter for the Popular FPS in the Middle East and North Africa”


The competitive FPS landscape is about to heat up in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, as Carry1st teams up with Stellar Gate Games to deliver Blood Strike MENA. This tailored version of NetEase Games’ widely loved first-person shooter Blood Strike is set to bring the action and adrenaline to the culturally rich and gaming-savvy region.

Announced on January 16, 2025, the collaboration signifies a major milestone for both Carry1st—Africa’s prominent gaming publisher and payment solutions pioneer—and Stellar Gate Games, a joint venture uniting NetEase Games and Sandsoft. Together, they aim to create a version of Blood Strike that doesn’t just resonate with player bases in the MENA region but also elevates the gaming experience to meet localized preferences and expectations.

For those unfamiliar, Blood Strike is a hit in the FPS scene, lauded for its fluid gameplay, intense gunfights, and tight team coordination. Whether you’re a battle royale veteran or a tactical shooter enthusiast, the game’s roots in high-octane action have earned it a loyal global following. The MENA adaptation promises to retain the core experience while integrating region-specific adjustments, such as language options, cultural elements, and potential content tailored to align with the interests of MENA players.

Why This Matters for MENA Players

This partnership isn’t just about another game release—it’s about a fresh focus on a region brimming with untapped potential. The gaming community there is thriving, with more players demanding localized content and representation. Carry1st’s involvement comes as no surprise, given its track record of understanding African and MENA markets. Paired with Stellar Gate Games’ technical prowess, the partnership could set new standards for regional game publishing.

While no exact release date has been revealed yet, Blood Strike MENA is expected to bring new tools for players to connect, compete, and dominate the battlefield. With esports competitions and FPS communities already growing in the region, this game might just become a cornerstone of MENA’s gaming culture.

Tips to Sharpen Your Game

If you’re eager to hit the ground running once Blood Strike MENA launches, here are some tips based on the original version of the game:

  1. Master Loadouts: Know your weapons inside out. Balancing firepower, accuracy, and mobility is key. Pay special attention to weapon attachments—they can make or break your efficiency during key moments.

  2. Team Communication Is Key: Whether you’re an in-your-face fragger or a strategic sniper, staying connected with your squad makes all the difference. Keep those callouts clear and concise.

  3. Map Awareness: Spend time learning the layouts of maps. Knowing key chokepoints, sniper perches, and cover zones will give you the upper hand.

  4. Adapt to the Meta: FPS games often develop trends in gameplay and strategy. Stay ahead by keeping an eye on what’s working for others, but don’t be afraid to experiment with your own tactics.

  5. Train for Reflexes: FPS games reward fast reactions. Consider spending time in practice modes to hone muscle memory and sharpen your aim.
