Blue Archive's merchandise line continues to expand with multiple figure announcements, a model kit, and prize figures, while a technical upgrade to the game's text-to-speech system was detailed at a developer conference.
Between June and July 2026, Blue Archive received a wave of figure and merchandise announcements across several manufacturers. Good Smile Company and its affiliates announced a 1/7 scale figure of Kisaki, a 1/7 scale figure of Seia from Good Smile Arts Shanghai, a figma of Saori Jōmae, and a Nendoroid of Takanashi Hoshino in battle form. F:NEX revealed a 1/7 scale figure of Chiaki. Phat Company announced a 1/7 scale figure of Shiroko, and Good Smile Company also announced a figma of Shiroko*Terror. The MODEROID line introduced an assembly plastic model kit of the giant robot Da'at. Banpresto displayed upcoming prize figures for Blue Archive at its Prize Fair. A Nendoroid Surprise blind-box set featuring six characters was also announced.
Beyond figures, the game itself saw a technical development: at NEXON Korea's NDC26 conference, engineer Kim Myeong-ji detailed a new text-to-speech model using Style-Bert-VITS2 to improve emotional expression in character voices. The upgrade targets better reproduction of nuances like distress and joy, addressing feedback on long vowels and pitch in Japanese lines.
The announcements show Blue Archive maintaining a steady presence in the collectibles market, with figures spanning multiple scales, price points, and formats-from prize figures to high-end scales and articulated figmas. The TTS upgrade indicates ongoing development work on the game's audio systems.
