The beautiful anime MMORPG Blue Protocol shows a new trailer. We are apparently really expecting some sort of playable anime.
What does the new trailer show? The primarily Japanese video focuses on the story of the action MMO. A fan-subtitled version of the trailer also allows us to partake in the story.
We learn that we embody heroes who traveled back 1,000 years from the future to save the world from a catastrophe. To do so, they must free the mythical monster Avalitia. However, in the past, it is only a legend.
We see plenty of scenes from the game, including battles as well as some NPCs. The battles run, as seen in previous videos, very action-packed and quickly. There is also a brief glimpse of a wolf-like mount.
Story-Driven Anime MMO
What does the trailer reveal? The video gives the impression that the MMO Blue Protocol is extremely story-driven. If one did not know that it was a game, the trailer could just as easily belong to a 3D animated anime.
The focus on the story and also important NPCs for the narrative indicate that an online game aimed at players who love engaging stories in an MMO is to be expected.
Why was the trailer released? In Japan, the closed beta of Blue Protocol starts in March. Registration will be possible from February 12, presumably on the official website. To spark interest, publisher Bandai Namco has now released this beta trailer.
Beta Offers More Insights
Can we also participate? Apparently, there is no region lock. This means, in principle, you can register and if selected, you can play. However, the game is currently still in Japanese.
An English localization is planned according to a job advertisement. However, whether this will be available during the closed beta is questionable. When the MMO will officially launch here is unclear.
Is there an NDA for the beta? No. Every tester can freely speak and write about what they experienced during the testing phase in Blue Protocol. So we can expect a lot of new information about the game.
Are you excited for Blue Protocol? Did the beta trailer make you want to play it yourself?
