The anime MMORPG Blue Protocol: Star Resonance launches this week on Steam and has now reached the final milestone of pre-registrations.
What kind of MMORPG is this? Blue Protocol: Star Resonance is the rebirth of the anime MMORPG Blue Protocol, created by Bandai Namco, which was bought after its discontinuation. The reason for the new subtitle “Star Resonance” is the massive overhaul of the game, which now bears little resemblance to its predecessor.
All classes have been completely redesigned and now resemble the holy trinity of tank, healer, and damage dealer more akin to classic theme park MMORPGs. Gameplay-wise, Blue Protocol: Star Resonance is aimed at people with less time and therefore offers content for about two hours a day, with the option to spend more time in dungeons and raids if desired.
Anticipation for the Release
How is it going before the launch? The new MMORPG will launch on Thursday, October 9, 2025, on Steam, Epic Games, as well as iOS and Android. Although the launch time is still unknown, the developers have already reached a new milestone.
On Sunday evening, the developers shared on X.com that they have achieved 5 million pre-registrations. Players can pre-register on the various platforms until launch, unlocking rewards for all.
With the achievement of the 5 million registrations milestone, players have not only reached the final milestone but also unlocked a mount.
What is the reward? As a reward, players will receive in-game and real currency unlocked through the previous tiers, as well as cosmetic items and loot boxes, along with the new mount. This is a small puppy that is just big enough to ride into adventure.
According to data from the beta, it grants a 175% speed bonus and a 262.5% sprint speed bonus. This makes it faster than the mounts typically available at the game’s start and a good reward for players.
How to obtain the mount? To obtain the mount, players must pre-register on the official game website. To do this, simply create an account as usual or log in via Google, Apple, or Crunchyroll. The latter is said to unlock additional rewards.
Once registered, players can also win further rewards with a spin-the-wheel feature on the website, including tangible prizes.
Blue Protocol: Star Resonance is the last major release of a new MMORPG for the current gaming year 2025. However, October is highly competitive in the genre and offers many major updates to keep an eye on: Don’t miss out! October will be THE big highlight in an otherwise very weak MMORPG year 2025
