It's been a weird week-or-so for Stellar Blade. A sequel to the highly popular PS5 and PC game was announced at the State of Play last week (called Stellar Blade: Blood Rain), and the developer hinted that it might be a multiplatform release. However, at the Nintendo Direct on Tuesday, the original game was announced for Switch 2 but not Xbox.

This unsurprisingly caused a lot of Xbox fans to bombard SHIFT UP Corporation (the developer and publisher of Stellar Blade) with requests for a port of the original game - especially if we'll be getting the sequel as well.

And finally, we've got a hint about it. As spotted by Windows Central, the "main publishing guy at Shift Up" responded to a fan on social media last night by teasing that "nothing is impossible" and "we just need time".

They also told someone else that they "can't say anything" until an announcement is made:

This certainly sounds like an Xbox port of Stellar Blade is in the works to us, and perhaps there's some kind of deal with Nintendo or another company that's forcing the studio to remain quiet for now.

Who knows, though! We'll keep an eye on the situation and inform you if and when Stellar Blade comes to Xbox, but in the meantime, the only option for now is to check it out on PS5, PC, or Nintendo Switch 2 later this year.
