Stellar Blade studio Shift Up is thinking about making a sequel to their action RPG and also releasing it on PC.
This news comes from a recent announcement in the Korea Composite Stock Price Index, where Shift Up said they are “considering a PC version of Stellar Blade and a sequel.”
Stellar Blade was released as a PS5 exclusive at the end of last month, but Shift Up isn’t owned by Sony. Recently, we found out the studio is also making a “cross-platform next-gen” game that might come out in 2027 or later. Now, it seems Stellar Blade might be released on other platforms too, not just PS5.
Stellar Blade is Coming to PC
Based on Sony’s typical release schedule, we expect Stellar Blade to come to PC sometime between the second quarter of 2024 and the second quarter of 2025.
Right now, there hasn’t been an official confirmation that Stellar Blade will be released on PC, although Shift Up has mentioned they are considering making a PC version.

Even though the CEO of Shift Up mentioned a PC port and a sequel in a recent interview, there’s no guarantee that Stellar Blade will come to PC.
Sony has already brought some of their PlayStation exclusive games to PC this year, like Helldivers 2, Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition, and Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut. Until Dawn is also set to release sometime this year, possibly on Steam and the Epic Game Store.
Usually, there’s about a two-year gap between when Sony releases their first-party games on PS5 and when they release them on PC. However, games published by Sony, such as Helldivers 2, have come to PC as soon as one year after their initial launch.
It’s important to note that Sony doesn’t have any plans to release new first-party games this fiscal year. They may try to make up for this by focusing on their multiplatform strategy, releasing PS5-exclusive games like Stellar Blade and God of War Ragnarok on PC.
That’s all the information we have about whether Stellar Blade will be released on PC.
