Blue Archive Hits Steam on July 4 – Delay Comes With Free Gifts

Blue Archive Steam Release

Blue Archive’s long-awaited Steam release now has a new date: July 4 at 1:00 AM UTC. After the unexpected delay last month, the devs have finally confirmed when the PC client will launch, and they are giving players a little thank-you gift for the wait.

When Does the Blue Archive Steam Client Release?

The PC Steam client will officially go live on Friday, July 4, at 1:00 AM UTC, worldwide. This lets you enjoy the full Blue Archive experience directly on Steam, no more mobile-only gameplay.

If you want to check it out ahead of time, you can already wishlist the game on the official Steam page.

Free Rewards as a Thank-You Gift

To thank players for their patience, Blue Archive is handing out some free items. Just log in between July 4 at 1:00 AM UTC and July 11 at 2:59 PM UTC, and you will get:

  • 10-Recruitment Ticket x1 (for your next big character pull)
  • AP x300

These rewards will show up in your in-game mailbox once you log in. Just be aware: they are only available for a limited time and only once per account.

Why Was It Delayed?

The Steam version was originally supposed to launch in late June but was delayed due to platform approval processes. No other major changes have been announced, so this is still the same full PC client release fans have been waiting for.

So keep an eye out for the Steam launch on July 4, and make sure to grab your free gifts while they last!
