Looks really nice.

They've updated their website as well:
blue-protocol.com

BLUE PROTOCOL

オンラインアクションRPG「BLUE PROTOCOL」の公式サイトです。

Beta applications open on the 12th, will allow 50k people in late march, apparently not region-locked (the game isn't in english for now though).

Can't wait to play this in 8 years when it's brought over in English.

The name just makes me think it's one of those cops & robbers MMOs like APB.

Looks pretty cool though. I'd check it out if it was single player.

Very hyped for this, hope it delivers

Bandai Namco is very good about bringing games over in English, too, so not too worried about that side of things either

People coming from 1000 years in the future to save the world, interesting premise.
Is that corpse shell Ludger at the end, lol?

I hope this is good and comes out in the US in a reasonable amount of time. I've been dying for a good action MMO.

Will keep an eye on this; looking forward to seeing what the character creator's like (and if it gets announced for the west).

Sawano is on it? That explains why this reminded me of XCX in many ways.

I just watched a clip of the alpha of this last night. Definitely will keep an eye on it, but man, do I need to upgrade my PC to be able to play any modern games.

Is this for the next Gen?

Could be huge for Namco if they put a mmo early in the next Gen

Yea, the first time I've heard this main theme I closed my eyes and saw nothing but Xenoblade. If I didn't know it was from Blue Protocol, I'd think it was straight from XCX.

The game has a lot of potential. Great composer, excellent visual style, what remains to be seen is the gameplay loop and GACHA/paid stuff. I think people are thirsty for this kind of game as PSO2 shows, so Blue Protocol could potentially fill another void left by Western developers. However, I have zero interest if this turns out like your typical MMO.

Friend just mention this game to me and I already forgot about it. It sure looks nice but then again it's Namco-Bandai, they'll skim on the game in some way I'm sure. What I'm really hoping for is a good localization, that is all.

This game is always so stunning looking. Kind of hard to believe it's an MMO. I'm really curious to see how it turns out.

I kind of wish this was secretly some .hack thing.

PC doesn't have "gen" lol.
where's the page to signup?
Nothing yet, should be up tomorrow. You probably need to have Bamco ID to register for beta.

IS this a subscription based MMO?

Could be cool. If you can mute all derivative anime character voice lines then I'd play.
