Looks Like Blue Protocol Is Back. Sorta
In an unexpected twist following the closure of the Japanese version of Blue Protocol, Shanghai Bokura Network Technology Co., Ltd, with partial funding from Tencent, has announced the development of a new version for both PC and mobile platforms. This news comes as a beacon of hope for fans dismayed by the game’s discontinuation in Japan.
Details of the revival were shared in an article on Twitter by Blue Protocol Database.
The end of Blue Protocol in Japan in late August left a void for some as there are fewer and fewer MMO releases on the horizon. However, the narrative took a turn as Shanghai Bokura stepped in, signaling a fresh start with Blue Protocol: Star Resonance. This version emerged from a series of closed beta tests, drawing attention from various Chinese social media platforms and forums where testers began sharing their experiences.
The new iteration of Blue Protocol aims to retain the essence of its predecessor while introducing significant enhancements that promise a richer gaming experience. Improved visuals and technical capabilities such as ultrawide support and higher frame rates are expected to draw players into a more immersive world. Combat dynamics are set to be faster and more fluid, with customizable controls that cater to both seasoned gamers and newcomers.
Customization extends beyond combat, with more detailed costume and character options that allow for greater personal expression within the game. The guild system is also receiving an overhaul, providing new ways for players to engage with each other and build communities.
Despite the excitement surrounding these developments, the future of Blue Protocol: Star Resonance holds many unknowns. The developers have indicated that aspects of the game experienced during beta testing are subject to change. This fluidity suggests that the game’s path to final release could involve substantial evolution based on tester feedback and further development insights.
