It’s an afterthought most of the time. Nothing that NEEDS to be there day one.

Not shocking it was announce as a multiplatform game before Sony threw money at them.

I thankful for PearlAbyss(korean dev) rejected sony cash for CrimsonDesert, so everyone can enjoy their game.

neutralgamer199220h ago

They rejected their money so much yet they allowed them to publish the game on steam?

Please it's the year 2025 enjoy gaming without becoming attached to a box

‘PS5’s Stellar Blade is reportedly coming to Nintendo Switch 2’

And Xbox?

NotoriousWhiz13h ago(Edited 13h ago)

Xbox maybe 2 or 3 years after they release on Switch 2 when they can collect some game pass money cause no one on Xbox will be buying it. We see what happened with FF16.

CrashMania15h ago

They helped a lot with development to shape the game it became, it's not your typical MS throw money at the wall and hope it sticks type of deal that usually doesn't work out.

The fact it isn't being considered for Xbox should tell you all you need to know.

It's a Shift Up game so they can put it wherever they want once the PS5 exclusivity is up.

darthv7222h ago

....like xbox, you know since it was first announced that way.

Elda18h ago

Sony spent money & got first dibs, maybe XB should have leaped first or is it possible that had no interest.

CantThinkOfAUsername18h ago

PlayStation is still the publisher of the game on PC.

ABizzel122h ago

Makes sense, a Nintendo release will help with sales in JP and at worse add a few hundred thousand sales globally.

720p@60fps medium-low upscaled to 1440p DLSS docked
&
540p@60fps medium-low upscaled to 1080p DLSS handheld

Should be possible without any issues.

Notsofast22h ago

probably get the game to 5-6 million copies sold if its on the switch 2

andy8521h ago

Given the steam version is already in the millions the switch 2 version should easily do that

Profchaos21h ago

Dlss is magic after playing street fighter 6 on switch 2 it's impressive

fsfsxii2h ago

Impressive input lag you mean

Profchaos1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

@fsfsxli they have approved sf6 on switch 2 for competitions if the input lag was actually a problem they would not have approved it

Good, another 3rd party game sony paid to keep xbox players from playing. Lets hope the xbox port is not far off after switch.

Scissorman20h ago(Edited 20h ago)

this partnership was so much more than sony paying to keep xbox players from playing it:

https://twistedvoxel.com/st...

the game wouldn't have become what it is today without sony's support.

darthv7220h ago

you know... we have been told that before, plenty of times. That excuse does not work anymore.

BLow14h ago(Edited 14h ago)

Don't worry the delusion is real with these fanboys. Not one person is this comment section mentioned that Tencent bought a 20% stake in Shift Up. Where's the outrage in that? Sony pays for and funds a game to be exclusive and to help develop. Bring out the pitch forks.

MS buys 2 publishers, one of them being the biggest in the industry, crickets. The math ain't mathin. Shift Up is a 3rd party company and they can do what they want. It's always been that way. I have no sympathy for the richest company in the world.

No disagrees from me. There is no point lol.

tay87012h ago(Edited 2h ago)

After the pathetic sales of FF16 on xbox, shift up probably isnt all that keen on making a port for xbox.

Stellar Blade Story Is Weak Admits Shift Up ; Planned Story DLC Shifted to Sequel

Even Shift Up admits Stellar Blade's story isn't the best, and also confirmed the in-development story DLC has now been shifted to the sequel.

Rangerman12081d 16h ago (Edited 1d 16h ago )

Good to see the devs acknowledge it. Thoguht the gameplay was fun but I could really care less for Eve or any of the characters. Hopefully the sequel will give Eve actual personality.

jznrpg1d 9h ago

I thought it was a decent enough but there is room for improvement for sure. There were a few good side quest stories hidden in there, so hopefully they add more of those in the next game.

I like devs who are self critical. That means they want to be better so they can make a better game and that’s music to my ears. .

raWfodog1d 8h ago

Somehow I don’t think the majority of players were buying the game for the story.

IAMRealHooman23h ago

i thought plot was the sound her ass makes when she walks

Armaggedon1d ago

Maybe thats true, but thats okay. Strength exists because of weakness, and vice versa.
