Shift Up’s PlayStation 5 exclusive, Stellar Blade, has garnered significant recognition at the Korea Game Awards this year, capturing the attention of both critics and fans alike. The game secured multiple accolades, including the Excellence Award, distinctions for Sound Design, Character Design, and Best Graphics, as well as the coveted Outstanding Developer Award, among others.
The announcement, shared by ShiftUpWorld on Twitter, highlighted Stellar Blade’s triumphant performance at the event held on November 13. This action-adventure title emerged victorious with an impressive tally of seven awards across a diverse array of categories.
A tweet by ShiftUpWorld celebrated the success, stating: “⚪️Shift Up shines at the 2024 Korea Game Awards thanks to #StellarBlade! – winning a total of 7 awards: Excellence Award, Popularity Game Award, Planning and Scenario, Sound Design, Best Graphics, Character Design, and Outstanding Developer Award.”
What makes these achievements particularly noteworthy is the fact that Korean gamers predominantly favor their PC and mobile gaming platforms. Hence, seeing console-centric games—Stellar Blade being the latest, with last year’s Lies of P as a precedent—receiving the spotlight in such a major fashion is truly remarkable.
