Na‐O 2 and Na‐CO 2 battery systems have shown promising prospects and gained great progress over the past decade. This review present current research status of Na‐O 2 and Na‐CO 2 batteries, including reaction mechanisms, air cathode design strategies, sodium protection exploration, and electrolyte developments. The future research strategies are also presented to further improve their performance for achieving the practical application of true Na‐air batteries.
