    Stellar Blade 2: Blood Rain

    Stellar Blade: BLOOD RAIN marks the next chapter in the acclaimed action adventure franchise being developed by the original team. Set in the same universe as Stellar Blade, the next installment continues the story beyond the events of the first game, introducing new protagonist Evie and expanding the world in a bold new direction.

    While the project is still in early development, SHIFT UP has made incredible progress and is looking forward to sharing more details when ready. The team is hard focused on building upon the stylish action, world-building, and core elements that fans have adored from Stellar Blade, while evolving the universe in ambitious new ways.

    Man, I want to see a proper combat trailer, rather than something that's part of a cinematic trailer, since what I'm seeing here looks far more appealing than the first game in terms of attack style.

    To be fair, Eve looked younger in the initial trailer for stellar blade but now that aside, that's when the game didn't have a title yet, it was still called project eve, not stellar blade, but since this is a first look and it's still in development, maybe they'll age this character up too like they did w/ the prior game

    Game director says the character design is intentional as he believes a smaller and shorter protagonist makes for better for close-quarters combat.

    Ok but there are small and short women who are also at least eighteen.

    It's fine, she's probably an android who's hundreds of years old so it's not creepy

    Right wingers are loving this because it's pissing people off. Conservatives and cranking it to kids, name a more iconic duo.

    I wouldn't have known the first game existed if not for the dumb ass manufactured controversy it generated, so that tracks.

    Though I had understood that by the end, that crowd had soured on the game for a bunch of dumb reasons as well.

    Her face features are very inconsistent during the trailer for sure. In some promo art she looks early 20s while some her face looks much rounder/younger. Meh
