The creators of Stellar Blade from Shift Up have postponed the presentation of their next major game, Project Spirits. Initially, the developers planned to fully showcase the project for the first time before the end of 2026, but they have now decided to push the announcement to 2027.
Shift Up emphasized that they want to choose the most suitable moment for the presentation to fully demonstrate the unique world and gameplay mechanics of Project Spirits, as well as to attract the maximum attention of audiences worldwide.
The postponement was revealed in the company’s latest financial report. Shift Up explained the decision by pointing to a crowded schedule of major game releases planned for late 2026 and early the following year.
Development of Project Spirits continues according to plan. According to studio representatives, the game has successfully passed another milestone evaluation and reached its targeted development stages.
Project Spirits was introduced in November 2025. At that time, Shift Up announced a partnership with Tencent, under which the latter will handle the international publishing of the game through its Level Infinite brand.
