Stellar Blade: A first official look at the studio's next game

Stellar Blade: A first official look at the studio's next game

Despite being the subject of much controversy due to the sultry looks of its heroine, the conclusion was ultimately clear for Stellar Blade: it's a real success. Released at the beginning of 2024 on PS5, the title, which will soon be arriving on PC, immediately helped propel Shift Up into the spotlight, making the studio one of the most promising new representatives of the Korean market. And today, the time has come for the latter to reveal a first glimpse of one of its future projects.

The aftermath of Stellar Blade is revealed at Shift Up

So no, we'll stop you right there: we won't be talking about Stellar Blade 2 here, even though Shift Up recently made the existence of this sequel official during its latest financial report. No, it will rather be about "Project Witches," the new license also reconfirmed on this same occasion. And the first thing to note is that the project seems to have changed its name since it now appears under the name "Project Spirits" on the studio's official website. But needless to say, of course, that this remains a code name.

Another interesting point, Shift Up took advantage of the addition of the game on its official page to tell us a little more about it. We thus learn that this time it will be a multiplatform "subcultural" title which will have the appearance of "eastern fantasy". "After Stellar Blade and Nikke, this is a new title developed as a premium game for the industry, which draws on Shift Up's production capabilities and expertise in licensing demonstrated with its previous projects" we can also read.

A first image revealed

Moreover, the studio has already opened numerous positions for the project, which is currently looking to welcome a scriptwriter, artists, a level designer and several gameplay designers. However, that's all we'll have to settle for for now. This and a first image of the characters (visible above), which once again demonstrates Shift Up's taste for women with generous figures. It remains to be seen whether "Project Spirits" will be able to replicate the success of Stellar Blade. The answer will be by 2027, if all goes well.
