Bandai Namco added the Blitz Lancer class in its latest August 2023 update for the free-to-play MMORPG Blue Protocol. This update also included a new dungeon, hard mode dungeon, and raid for players to experience. The Blitz Lancer class was shown off during one of the recent developer livestreams and appeared in its own showcase to give players an overview of how the Blitz Lancer would play.
Blitz Lancer is a highly mobile class, utilizing short-distance attacks while striking with a spear. Blitz Lancer can imprint on enemies and launch powerful air combos and finishing blows. While the Blitz Lancer is nimble and speedy, it has low defense.
Other classes in Blue Protocol include the Blade Warden, Twin Striker, Keen Strider, Spell Weaver, and Foe Breaker.
Appearing alongside the addition of the Blitz Lancer class in Blue Protocol is also the addition of a new dungeon which takes place in a mysterious cave where water spirits live. It is said that those who wander into the cave and see the water spirit are entranced and doomed to wander the cave forever. The hard mode dungeon takes place in the research facility of an advanced race of beings whose technology is beyond human understanding.
Little has been said about the new raid, but it features a fearsome Earth Dragon that appears from a mysterious portal.
Here’s the latest gallery of screenshots for the game.
Blue Protocol is currently available to play on Windows PC in Japan. PS4 and PS5 versions are set to release at a later date. Blue Protocol will release worldwide in 2024.
