As of late, the BTS fandom has been occupied with a fan-project known as Outcast, but the band is vying to win all their attention back. Earlier today, the group announced its first official game, and fans have a lot to say about the mobile app.

You know, like the fact the game isn't inclusive of foreign fans just yet.

Over on Youtube, a video of BTS featuring each of its members dropped for fans. It was there the leader RM confirmed BigHit has been hard at work on a game called Superstar.

"We are here to let you know the exciting news about us! The first official BTS game! Superstar BTS," the rapper said before Suga joined in.

"Pre-registration just started today. You can enjoy our songs by a rhythm game. Anyway, when is the release date of this game?"

Jimin let fans know the release date wasn't far away and that fans have to pre-register online to play. Jungkook chimed in as well to say he's had fun playing the app so far, and V reminded fans they can get a pre-registration gift after they sign up online.

As you might have guessed, the website for Superstar was quickly swarmed with fans, but international ARMY members learned a sad fact once they tried to register. When you try to sign up for the game, the BTS Superstar page requires you to enter a phone number and only South Korean numbers are currently accepted. This has led fans to worry about the game's offerings abroad. Its announcement video did have English subtitles, but there is no guarantee BTS Superstar will come in any other language than Korean or if it will be offered in app stores internationally.

If you cannot wait for BTS to drop its first official game, then you do have some options. Aeon Dream Studios has been hard a work on an unofficial game inspired by BTS, and To the Edge of the Sky has got fans freaking out over its thrilling visuals and story.
