Windows Phone will join the BBM party in July

Android and iOS won't be alone at the BlackBerry Messenger party anymore come July, when BBM will launch for Windows Phone devices.

After BlackBerry launched BBM for iOS and Android in 2013 it was only a matter of time before the messaging service arrived on WP as well, and the company confirmed in February that it would arrive this year.

Now BlackBerry CEO John Chen has informed the public that BBM for Windows Phone will in fact arrive in July.

Four's a crowd

Chen dropped the news on an earnings call Thursday morning, CrackBerry reports.

Windows Phone will be the fourth platform to host BBM, after BlackBerry 10, iOS and Android.

The most recent advancement on the iOS and Android side was the addition of free calling among BBM users. However, it's unclear at this point what features will be available in the WP version when it arrives next month.

We've asked BlackBerry for some more details about BBM for Windows Phone, and we'll update here if we receive any.
