According to developer Shift Up, its smash hit PS5-exclusive Stellar Blade is estimated to have sold over 1 million units since its global launch. The major update comes from a new report that revealed the action-adventure game's rise in popularity among players across the globe.

Stellar Blade was previously rumored to have sold close to 1 million units at launch. However, this figure wasn't confirmed by publisher Sony Interactive Entertainment. But the new update is a big win for Shift Up's team given the fact that the game is its first AAA console exclusive.

Japanese media outlet Gamemeca recently shared a report while disclosing the news online. According to the website, Shift Up recently held its 25th IPO press conference, in which the studio's CFO announced that the cumulative sales of Stellar Blade have gone past the mark of 1 million sold units so far.

Shift Up also mentioned the game's craze among players by mentioning that it received an impressive user rating of 9.2, the highest score for any PlayStation exclusive in history.

Additionally, the studio emphasized on releasing a Stellar Blade PC version in the future. According to the CFO, many consumers of AAA titles are moving to PCs, and bringing the action-adventure game to PC will boost the overall value of the IP itself.

The game features a semi-open world with the protagonist Eve sent to Earth to wipe out Naytiba and rescue humanity. However, she learns new secrets during her journey and is eventually forced to make the right choice.

Following its release on April 26, 2024, Stellar Blade has maintained its place among the bestsellers. In fact, it was the top-selling title for April in the United States despite arriving at the end of the month.
