Where the point of that blade will lead you to, that’s entirely up to you. The title is a combination of “Stellar,” which signifies stars in Latin, and “Blade,” which defines Eve’s existence. I am beyond ecstatic to reveal the official name for our game, previously called Project Eve, and share new trailer unveiling new characters and their roles in this story.Īnd I present to you the official title that encompasses Eve’s stylish action and her long and winding adventure… The meaning of Stellar Blade Stellar Blade is set to release in 2023 exclusively for PlayStation 5.This is our second encounter since the PlayStation Showcase back in September 2021. The Project Eve development team includes early members at the time of 'Blade and Soul' development, such as ShiftUp CEO Kim Hyung-tae, program manager Lee Dong-gi, Wonhwa Lee, FX manager Lee Chang-min, and producer Joo-hwan Lee with console game development experience. Even if Stellar Blade comes out later than expected, or gets hit with any sort of delay, fans will certainly get a good game for their time and money if Shift Up's previous track record is anything to go by. It's clear to see when looking at the games that predate its first console game, Shift Up is a company that values its time to make a good product above everything else. With how gorgeous the game looks, it's rather surprising when one looks at Shift Up's mobile gacha-based history that relied on 2D motion artwork for the majority of its assets. However, what isn't seen as often is the fact that Stellar Blade only has two mobile games behind its studio prior to its development. Luckily for fans who preferred the name "Project Eve," the code word lives on through the game's protagonist keeping the name Eve despite the change. Codenames being used as placeholders is a common practice in the video game industry that applies to consoles as well as games, like the Nintendo 3DS being known as "Project Citra" internally at Nintendo. While this combination looked and sounded interesting, players wouldn't get any new information on the title until almost an exact year later when it returned to the September 2022 State of Play as Stellar Blade, complete with a brand new trailer.Įven though the rather intriguing trailer combined with being left in the dark about Project Eve arguably got players attached to the name, it was made rather clear with the name change that "Project Eve" was never the title of the game, but a codename instead. To viewers, it seemed like Protect Eve was aiming to play like Bayonetta with Resident Evil's zombie and horror elements attached to it, allowing players to dodge and beat up enemies with the agility of a flexible girl in a skin-tight suit. These creatures were shown occupying abandoned spaces and subway stations, and were even shown possessing corpses despite the lingering implication that those bodies had been left alone for decades, if not centuries. Various characters in the screen were matched with non-standard Mandarin dubbing. This trailer featured gory aliens known as Na:tives that would remain as the title's main enemies even after the game earned its proper title. New Korean action game Project EVE announced. Beyond that, hardly anything was revealed about the game until "Project Eve" was first shown off during the Playstation Showcase in 2021. Following Shift Up's successful mobile titles, the company announced its first AAA game in April 2019.
