Shift Up Confirms Multiplatform Stellar Blade Sequel, Ramps Up Hiring

A recruitment post signals a UE5 build targeting consoles plus PC with a tentative 2027 window.

Overview

  • New job materials describe the next Stellar Blade as a AAA multiplatform action game aiming to release on various platforms across consoles and PC.
  • Shift Up has opened large-scale recruitment for the project, with roles spanning 3D art, combat design, writing, and engineering.
  • The listings point to development on Unreal Engine 5.
  • The sequel is set to inherit the first game's stylish action and narrative-driven world while evolving its combat experience.
  • This approach departs from the original’s PS5-first rollout before a later PC port, and no firm release date has been announced beyond earlier 2027 guidance.
