While Bandai Namco’s anime MMORPG Blue Protocol<\/em> will shut down<\/a> before it even premieres globally, some fans were upset. Now, it seems the MMO is getting another shot, albeit with a new company.<\/p>\n

The recently unveiled Star Resonance<\/em> MMORPG takes place in the same world as Blue Protocol<\/em>, on the planet of Regnas, and was originally in development in collaboration with Bandai Namco as another entry based on the IP.<\/p>\n

Details on Star Resonance are scant, though a playtest for the MMO is planned<\/a> for sometime in the near future, in China. Tencent Games will be publishing the game while Shanghai BOKURA is developing it for both PC and smartphones.<\/p>\n

Though the new game seemingly shares the same setting as Blue Protocol<\/em>, it also shares a lot of the same style both in its character designs and weapons – plus it’s another MMO. The key difference here is the new game is being made for PC and smartphones while the original game was for PC and consoles. <\/p>\n

Fans still holding out hope for Blue Protocol<\/em> should know that MMO will shut down in January 2025, news confirmed alongside the cancelation of its western release. It’s possible Tencent brings this new incarnation, Star Resonance, <\/em>outside of China but we likely won’t know until after it debuts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
