Stellar Blade released earlier this year to a wave of success. The PS5 exclusive currently has a user score of 9.2/10 on Metacritic and was confirmed to have been a hit, with a PC port and even a sequel currently being considered. We now have more concrete figures on its success as according to the company’s CFO, Stellar Blade has sold over 1 million copies.
During a press conference for the studio’s IPO launch in Korea, Shift Up CFO Jaewoo Ahn spoke on the success of the team’s first console title, saying (as translated by ResetEra user ‘Neha’):
“Stellar Blade has achieved a user rating of 9.2 on Metacritic, the highest ever for a PS5 title, and continues to hold that record today. Since its launch, the game has ranked first in sales in major console markets such as the U.S. and U.K., and cumulative sales are estimated to have surpassed one million copies.. It's a great first step for a major global IP.”
1 million copies for the team’s first console game is certainly worth celebrating, especially as the game is a PS5 exclusive and has only been out for a little under two months.
With a PC port and a sequel currently under consideration, expect to hear much more from both Shift Up and Stellar Blade in the hopefully not-too-distant future.
