Publisher A Plus has officially announced the global launch of Blue Protocol: Star Resonance, a reimagined version of the previously canceled Blue Protocol. The game is set to release in 2025 for PC, iOS, and Android, with English as the only confirmed language so far.

Players can pre-register now via the official website, and also wishlist the game on Steam and the Epic Games Store.

Explore an anime-style world full of life

The announcement trailer showcases a vibrant mix of gameplay activities — from peaceful resource gathering and fishing to intense cooperative boss fights.

Set in the fantastical world of Regnas, players will explore lush biomes, tackle dynamic world events, and engage in both solo and group battles against monsters in this open-world MMORPG.

Flexible classes, deep customization, and social gameplay

The class system allows players to freely switch roles at any time — become a shield-bearing tank, a healing support, or an all-out damage dealer depending on your playstyle.

Combat is visually impressive and team-oriented, especially during large-scale boss encounters. Players can also enjoy extensive character and gear customization, plus a wide range of social features including crafting, festivals, guild systems, and casual hangout spaces.
