Shift Up reveals details of the Stellar Blade sequel

South Korean studio Shift Up announced the release of the long‑awaited sequel to its popular post‑apocalyptic action game *Stellar Blade*. The new title is *Stellar Blade: Blood Rain*.

At the Summer Game Fest 2026 presentation, the company showcased a three‑minute cinematic trailer that highlights key moments of the upcoming game.

What’s new?
- The story takes place after the final events of the original *Stellar Blade*.
- The main heroine is a new protagonist named Ivy. The trailer emphasizes her penchant for hand‑to‑hand combat, promising more dynamic gameplay.

Technical details
- The trailer notes that all footage was shot on PC. This may indicate that *Stellar Blade: Blood Rain* will not be a Sony console exclusive like the first part.
- At present, exact release dates and target platforms are still unknown.

Development
Shift Up remains the publisher of the project and reports that development is proceeding as planned, with the studio’s high quality standards in mind.

Thus, fans can expect a continuation of the familiar *Stellar Blade* world in a more dynamic form, but it is still unclear when and on which devices the game will appear.
