Stellar Blade PC Version Is Coming in 2025; Shift Up Expects More Sales Than on PS5

wccftech.com:

We already knew that a PC version of Stellar Blade was on the way, but now Korean developer Shift Up has confirmed that we can expect it to arrive at some point in 2025. The news comes from the latest investor report, in which the studio also revealed that its sales estimate for the PC version is higher than the PS5's, considering Steam's large user base and the recent explosive success of a similar action game, Black Myth: Wukong.

Shift Up is also planning to expand overseas with a new office to be established in Los Angeles. The company certainly has a lot to invest after the big IPO worth $320 million they raised in July. However, they also have an ongoing lawsuit to deal with regarding the Stellar Blade IP, as the owner of StellarBlade.com sued both Shift Up and Sony for trademark infringement.

Meanwhile, the studio continues to improve the game. The recent PS5 Pro update added the new Pro and Pro Max graphics presets, both of which support high frame rates. Next week, players can expect a free update adding Photo Mode and a DLC collaboration with Square Enix's NieR Automata. All of these patches and DLCs are almost assuredly going to be available from day one on PC.

Stellar Blade got a straight 9 in Wccftech's review of the PS5 version penned by Kai Tatsumoto:

No butts about it, Stellar Blade is a marvelous feast for the eyes and a technically impressive action RPG. Those who find the hyper-sexualized Eve offputting will find little redemption in finding some modesty for the playable heroine, but at the same time, those already accustomed to the years following Bayonetta’s release and 2Booty memes will find the character designs enjoyable, to say the least. Stellar Blade is a fantastic action title and one PlayStation exclusive you’ll have to play after the kids go to bed.
