After a sudden delay announcement last week, a day before its scheduled launch, the Steam version of Blue Archive is now available to download and play. It launched on July 4, 1 AM UTC (July 3, 9 PM ET/6 PM PT). To compensate players on the launch delay, Nexon is sending players one (1) 10-Recruitment ticket and 300 AP. The recruitment ticket can be used to roll for new units and the AP is used to tackle stages in the game.

Blue Archive | Steam Grand Opening

To celebrate the launch of Blue Archive on Steam, multiple events are available for fans to participate in including a Fanart Contest, Steam Review Event, and an X (Twitter) Sharing Event. Information on each event’s rewards can be found in their respective links.

Blue Archive is available now on Android and iOS mobile devices and PC via Steam. It is developed by Nexon Games’ MX Studio and published by Nexon. The Steam version is only available for the game’s Global version and not the Japanese version due to each version having different publishers. It supports English, Traditional Chinese, Korean, and Thai text with Japanese and Korean voiceovers. If you’re interested in the game, you can check out the Global version’s official website and follow its official X account.
