The story

Operations for Blue Archive, a school × youth × story-driven RPG, in Japan will be fully transferred from the current publisher, Yostar, to NEXON. The transfer is scheduled for around January 2027, and operations for in-game updates and events such as “Blue Archive Fes!” will also be transferred to NEXON.

The change of publisher is attributed to NEXON Games, the developer, working with NEXON to establish a structure that centralizes development, operations and IP rollout. Services in Japan will continue after the publisher change, and players will continue to be able to use their existing data, in-game items and currency.
