If you’re on the Nintendo Switch 2, you can now enjoy 2024’s popular action adventure title Stellar Blade on the go as a Switch 2 port for the game has been announced for the handheld console. Stellar Blade has been one of the few notable third person character action titles of the recent few years and now players on the Nintendo Switch 2 will be able to experience the game as well which will possibly make use of the unique layout of the platform in new ways for a more immersive and engaging gameplay experience. Check out the full announcement trailer below:
There have been more news of Stellar Blade in this week as well, with Stellar Blade Blood Rain which is an expansion of the first game, announced in this year’s Summer Game Fest with a new trailer showcasing the narrative backdrop, a whole new protagonist and a new combat system. Developed by Shift Up, Stellar Blade Blood Rain may initially seem like a sequel to the original title, mainly cause of how sleek and polished everything looks in the trailer but it’s been officially titled as an expansion complete with a new combat system that looks equally terrific as that of the previous game, or even slightly better.
Stellar Blade was one of 2024’s best action adventure releases that also came out on the PC last year and went on to earn the title of the best-selling Playstation exclusive on the PC, surpassing other AAA heavyweights such as Marvel’s Spider Man (both 1 and 2), God of War, Ghost of Tshushima and more. Stellar Blade’s staggering player counts on the PC also officially cemented the game as the highest selling Playstation port ever, which is a mighty impressive feat especially considering the games it outperformed and how little hype it had compared to the other titles.
