Stellar Blade is an action-adventure RPG that launched on PlayStation 5 and PC in April 2024. The game has since spawned comparisons to other titles in its genre, with at least one upcoming release drawing inspiration from its combat framework.
More recently, developer Shift Up faced backlash over a music video for an upcoming sequel, Blood Rain, which featured AI-generated visuals of the new protagonist Evie. The video prompted criticism on social media regarding artistic authenticity, though Shift Up responded by emphasizing the character design work of its human artists. The controversy reflects broader industry questions about AI implementation in game marketing and promotional materials.
