Is there a way to get actual blueprint class from the Asset Registry?

Yes. In C++ you just do:

FString AssetPath = TEXT("/Game/Blueprints/BP_TargetItem");
		UClass* BP_TargetItemClass = ConstructorHelpersInternal::FindOrLoadClass(AssetPath, UObject::StaticClass());

I would like to get a class which can then be used to cast for a desired custom blueprint subclass. Is this possible in blueprint scripting?

I don’t think there’s FindOrLoadClass or the functions that use it are exposed to blueprints. But you can do it yourself. Create a BlueprintFunctionLibrary class and add this function to it:

	UFUNCTION()
	static UClass* GetClassFromBlueprintPackage(FString PackagePath) {
		return ConstructorHelpersInternal::FindOrLoadClass(PackagePath, UObject::StaticClass());;
	}

Then in a blueprint:

FindOrLoadClass function works with asset paths in a form of “/Game/Blueprints/BP_YourBlueprintClass” and “/Game/Blueprints/BP_YourBlueprintClass.BP_YourBlueprintClass_C”.
