The anime MMORPG Blue Protocol: Star Resonance is making a comeback and is available for the first time outside of Japan, and we in the West can also look forward to it.
What is the status of Blue Protocol? Actually, Blue Protocol was already at an end. But instead of failing, it was purchased and revamped by gaming giant Tencent. Under the name “Star Resonance,” the anime MMORPG was remastered as a spin-off and is now being re-released.
The revived anime MMORPG launched in China on July 17 and is currently experiencing a huge hype there. The release trailer was viewed by nearly 4 million people on the video platform BiliBili.com within a day.
On the gaming charts of the platform BiliBili, Blue Protocol: Star Resonance is at the top in first place of the popularity ranking, rated by the platform’s Chinese users with 7 out of 10 stars.
But a release for us in the West is also drawing nearer. A beta will be available soon and there is already a suitable trailer for it.

What kind of beta is this? While players in China are already allowed to play the new version of Blue Protocol, the release in the West is also coming closer. The new trailer already reveals the date from when you can sign up for the beta.
Even though the developers have not yet specified when exactly you can test the MMORPG, registration for the beta test is expected to be possible starting July 24, 2025. The registration will likely take place on the website playbpsr.com, where there are already extensive information about the classes and first insights into the areas of the MMORPG.
What else have the developers revealed? In line with the announcement of the upcoming beta test, the developers of Blue Protocol also introduced their character editor. Here you can create your own game character in anime style and adjust not only the face but also the proportions of the character.
