Latest Blue Protocol Livestream Reveals Business Model And CBT Details

Blue Protocol during the developers’ second YouTube livestream. Fans will be happy to know that the game will be free-to-play at launch and possibly cosmetic microtransactions and season es as a form of monetization.

The developers also talked about the closed beta test in Japan. Bandai says that players will be limited to two characters during the CBT. Guilds will be available at launch but not during testing to allow CBT participants to play the game without being forced to guilds. Social activities like player housing, casinos, and fishing will also be implemented in the future but will be added “very slowly and very carefully.” Player trading is still being considered and PvP still hasn’t been planned.

The full livestream is in Japanese but you’ll find the stream highlights on the Blue Protocol Database community-made site.
