Might be the closest thing we get to God Hand’s combat
SHIFT UP recently announced Stellar Blade: BLOOD RAIN. Which seems to be a melee focused combat action game. SHIFT UP also recently acquired Mikami a while back. At 2:37-2:44 she does Gene's barrel roll kick, weaving, and up forward leg sweep.
The Director on Gameplay & Difficulty
Combat Mechanics: The combat shifts heavily toward intense close-quarters melee combat, which looks incredibly appealing with her smaller frame. While she uses different weapons (including a reverse-blade sword), the weapon/stance system will expand with deep combo variations and staggering depth.
Difficulty: It won’t be easier than the first game. Kim noted that modern gamers don't fear a learning curve.
However, unlike the first game (where the Easy Mode was added later), they are designing the easier difficulty options from the ground up this time to ensure it is just as fun and engaging for casual players.
