Blue Protocol Returns as Star Resonance: New MMO Hope
Good news for fans of the cancelled MMORPG, Blue Protocol! Bandai Namco’s project has been revived by Tencent-funded developer Bokura as Star Resonance.
A New Beginning
After Bandai Namco announced the shutdown of Blue Protocol in August, citing inability to meet player expectations, Bokura stepped in. While set in the same world, Regnas, Star Resonance boasts a reworked gameplay experience and storyline. Some of the original Blue Protocol development team have joined Bokura on this new venture.
Beta and Release
A closed beta test is planned for Android and PC players in China. Unfortunately, a wider release date, including for Japan and the West, remains unannounced. Blue Protocol servers are scheduled to shut down on January 18th, 2025.
A Second Chance
The relaunch offers a second chance for this anime MMORPG to succeed. Previously, concerns were raised about its ability to stand out amongst competitors like Lost Ark and New World. Star Resonance aims to address these concerns with its revamped gameplay and narrative.
