Sony and Stellar Blade Developer Gets Sued for Trademark Infringement

As reported by IGN, Sony and Stellar Blade developer Shift Up have been sued in the United States for trademark infringement. The plaintiff is Griffith Chambers Mehaffey, owner of a multimedia company named Stellarblade LLC whose officials website is available here. Mehaffey's lawyer sent the following statement to IGN: Mr. Mehaffey registered the stellarblade.com domain in 2006 and has used the STELLARBLADE name for his business for nearly 15 years. Given this long-standing and public use, it's difficult to imagine that Shift Up and Sony were unaware of Mr. Mehaffey's established rights before adopting their identical mark. We believe in […]

Stellar Blade New Job Listings Suggests PC Port, DLC Could Be in the Works

A Stellar Blade PC port has yet to be officially announced, but one could be already in the works alongside additional content. As reported on the Tech4Gamers forums, two job listings from developer Shift Up related to the game have appeared online. The studio is looking to hire a Combat Designer for PC development which specifically asks for PC-related skills such as design and data work, heavily suggesting a port is going to be released at some point. Additionally, Shift Up is looking to hire a Battle Designer - Monster Creation for the creation of monster skills, AI design, and […]

Stellar Blade Developer Is Now Worth as Much as KOEI TECMO in Market Capitalization Following Huge IPO

South Korean Stellar Blade developer Shift Up has finalized its IPO (initial public offering), which turned out to be highly successful. As reported by Bloomberg, Shift Up raised $320 million (435 billion won, the local currency), the largest amount a gaming firm gathered during an IPO in almost three years. Back then, Krafton (maker of PUBG) raised $3.8 billion in its IPO. It's also the largest IPO in South Korea across all sectors since HD Hyundai Marine Solution in May. Lee Jieun, analyst at Daishin Securities Co., reckoned there would be 'ample space' for the stock to rise following the […]

Stellar Blade and Helldivers 2 Dominate and Sea of Thieves Returns to the Top 5 in April

The former NPD Group (now named “Circana”) has released its full North American sales data for April, and it was a bit of a down month for the industry. Players spent $4.1 billion on games, additional content, and hardware in April, down 3 percent year-on-year. While software spending was up slightly, hardware numbers were down a whopping 43 percent year-on-year. As has been the case for a several month straight, PS5 was #1 in terms of unit and dollar sales, Switch was #2 in terms of unit sales, and Xbox Series X/S was #2 in terms of dollar sales. Sony […]

Stellar Blade Update Adds a Boss Rush and More Outfits, Including Some Much-Debated Looks

PS5 exclusive Stellar Blade has dropped its first update since launch, and it serves up a hearty helping of new features, quality-of-life improvements, and fan service. The biggest addition is the new Boss Challenge mode, which developer Shift Up describes thusly… “The Boss Challenge pits you against the 19 bosses from the base game. Hone your skills, outwit your enemies… and then brutalize them. Progression in the Boss Challenge requires battle data from bosses you’ve previously defeated. You can also fight bosses on Hard difficulty setting after you’ve seen the ending of the game. You can either load up and […]

Stellar Blade PC Port and Sequel Planned, Confirms Dev

Stellar Blade is certainly one of the most successful games released this year. The PlayStation 5 action game developed by South Korean developer Shift Up garnered widespread acclaim from critics and users alike when it launched last month. Our Kai Tatsumoto rated the game 9 out of 10 in his review: No butts about it, Stellar Blade is a marvelous feast for the eyes and a technically impressive action RPG. Those who find the hyper-sexualized Eve offputting will find little redemption in finding some modesty for the playable heroine, but at the same time, those already accustomed to the years […]

Apple finally included a telephoto lens in its iPhone 15 Pro Max last year, with the upgrade extended to the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. This is just one of the many examples of how the Cupertino firm adopts various standards much later than the competition, likely because it wants to offer the best configuration to customers. One other technology that the company is said to bring for the iPhone 18 that rivals like Samsung introduced years ago is variable aperture for the main camera, and according to one analyst, another supplier will provide these parts.
