Stellar Blade Set to Introduce Challenging Boss Rush Mode, DLC Plans Still Up in the Air

The director of Stellar Blade has indicated that there are no immediate plans for additional downloadable content, though a Boss Rush mode is currently in the works. It appears Stellar Blade could soon introduce a mode specifically designed for confronting a series of bosses one after the other. An initial update on release day for Shift Up’s thrilling title introduced a New Game Plus mode and additional costumes for the main character, Eve. In a recent conversation with the Korean publication Nate (as translated through Google), Hyung-Tae Kim, the game's director and CEO of Shift Up, shared that development is underway for a Boss Challenge mode within the title.

Similar to boss-centric modes seen in other titles, such as the critically acclaimed Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice by FromSoftware, this mode is expected to feature consecutive, challenging battles against bosses. Details including the exact number of bosses featured or whether players will have opportunities to heal Eve between fights remain unclear for now.

In further discussions, Kim disclosed that decisions on additional DLCs or free content updates for Stellar Blade are still under consideration. This might suggest that the Boss Challenge mode could be the next significant update for fans of Stellar Blade, although the progression stage of this mode's development remains uncertain.

Comparing Shift Up to a seasoned baseball player, Kim expressed that delivering content gamers enjoy is part of the company's core strategy. He notes the current diversity within the gaming industry and sees value in developers who choose a straightforward approach, which is what Shift Up aims to achieve with Stellar Blade.
