Shift Up Could Be Planning On Using Stellar Blade’s PC Release as A Gambling Chip For a Sequel

Shift Up’s 2024 game, Stellar Blade, proved to be one of the most successful games of this year despite the controversies related to its protagonist. Thanks to its success on PlayStation 5, Shift Up has now announced that the game will be released on Steam and the Epic Games Store in 2025. While this news is exciting, most of the fanbase has been eagerly waiting for Stellar Blade‘s sequel. It seems like Sony and Shift Up are taking things slow as a PC release would further determine if it would be feasible to create a sequel.
