It was also confirmed during the State of Play that Eve will appear as a cameo bot in the upcoming Astro Bot speedrun DLC.
The DLC will consist of 5 new online speedrun levels. Speaking on the PlayStation Blog, director Nicolas Doucet said: “Many of you asked for the return of speedrun levels, so we hope you enjoy those. Time to sharpen those jumping skills and shave milliseconds at every turn.”
Stellar Blade developer Shift Up and publisher Sony Interactive Entertainment are being sued over the game’s name.
As reported by IGN, a Louisiana-based film production company named Stellarblade is alleging trademark infringement, and claiming the PS5 game’s release has pushed its “long-established business into digital obscurity”.
In the complaint, it’s claimed that Stellarblade owner Griffith Chambers has owned stellarblade.com since 2006, and that the company has provided “multimedia entertainment services” such as film and video production since 2010.
Stellar Blade was initially revealed in 2021 as Project Eve, before its final name was announced the following year.
