Blue Protocol Star Resonance launches in NA, SA and Europe

Blue Protocol Star Resonance, an anime-inspired free-to-play MMORPG tied to Bandai Namco’s earlier Blue Protocol project, launched on Oct. 9 for PC and mobile players in North America, South America and Europe, offering crossplay across Steam, the Epic Games Store, Google Play and the App Store. The release opens a large open world with multiple combat classes, crafting and gathering systems, and a suite of timed events and promotional giveaways aimed at new players.

Developer credits list Bokura alongside A PLUS JAPAN and the game is officially licensed by Bandai Namco. The title follows several weeks of testing that exercised guild features, combat systems and other social mechanics. At launch the publisher imposed a staged progression system that limits levels, certain content and equipment over a four-week period, with official guides indicating roughly three weeks until all content becomes freely accessible.
