Blue Protocol's Spiritual Successor, Star Resonance, Revives the MMO in a New Form

Asked by terryaster at 4:16pm on Dec 11 2024

Bandai Namco's canceled MMORPG, Blue Protocol, is being revived under the new title Star Resonance. Although Blue Protocol garnered a positive reception, it struggled to build the player base needed to sustain its development. Fans were disappointed by the MMO's shutdown, but now they have hope as a spinoff-turned-spiritual successor is in the works.

In August 2024, Bandai Namco announced the closure of Blue Protocol, giving players until January 2025 to enjoy the game before its servers go offline. Although Blue Protocol had not yet launched outside of Japan, Star Resonance, which began as a mobile spinoff, is now taking shape and moving towards an initial release. This project, developed by Chinese studio Bokura, is set in the same world of Regnas as Blue Protocol but introduces new characters and an original storyline.

Bokura had previously announced its collaboration with Bandai Namco, confirming a new story set in Blue Protocol's universe. Now, with the unveiling of Star Resonance, the game is gearing up to offer a fresh experience. While it may not be the exact continuation fans hoped for, Star Resonance provides a new entry point into the beloved world, particularly for those who never had the chance to explore Regnas in Blue Protocol.

The exact release date for Star Resonance remains unclear, but Bokura is currently running a closed beta test in China, set to conclude in late December 2024. Some original members of the Blue Protocol team are involved in the development, which may give Star Resonance the edge it needs to succeed where Blue Protocol faltered. The mobile-focused approach could help expand the game's reach, especially considering the success of other mobile-compatible MMOs like Genshin Impact.

Additionally, Bokura is backed by Tencent, one of the largest players in the gaming industry. Tencent's considerable resources could provide Star Resonance with the support necessary to overcome the challenges that led to Blue Protocol’s cancellation. For now, fans will have to wait and see how Star Resonance shapes up and when it will be available for a wider audience.
