The 22-year-old, scorer of the clinching try against France when Wales clinched the Six Nations Grand Slam in March, had been weighing up a move away from the Blues, with several French clubs reportedly interested in securing his signature.
But he has given the region a timely boost by choosing to continue to ply his trade in the principality.
He said: "I am very pleased to be re-signing for another year with the Blues and I can now look forward to the summer tour with Wales and next season with the region.
"I had a few offers outside of Wales and having gone through all the options thoroughly with family and friends, I came to the conclusion that the best option was to stay at the Blues, showing my loyalty to the region, coaches and the fans."
