The release is getting closer! Stellar Blade, the next game from Korean studio Shift Up, seems more ready than ever. The title was first presented in 2019 and has since been the subject of numerous digital conferences organized by PlayStation. Last night’s was no exception to the rule since six minutes were dedicated to it. Enough to see the world of Xion in more detail but also action-rpg gameplay, at the crossroads of Nier and Bayonetta:
The player plays EVE, a warrior from an orbital colony who has descended to earth to defeat the Naytibas. They are enemies of humanity who have invaded the entire planet. To do this, she will not be alone since companions accompany her on these desolate lands: Adam is in search of a special energy source while Lili serves as a support engineer. This is partly what improves your skills!
Stellar Blade PS5: a release date for exclusivity
EVE will really need it: she will have to carry out quests for local survivors, but also to defeat animals that look like mutant monsters. She can then count on firearms or a kind of long blade for the body. A talent tree, to reinforce the role-playing aspect, is also integrated into the game. The trailer highlighted numerous boss fights.
Beyond the action and exploration aspect, Stellar Blade seems to emphasize commitment: EVE decides to do everything to fulfill its mission and restore Xion to its past glory. But what will he have left after he finishes it?
In any case, Stellar Blade is intriguing and could well constitute the surprising PS5 exclusive of this first half. Reading the comments, players seem amazed by the beauty of the game. Some consider it to be the most beautiful presented during this State of Play while others even explain having bought a console for this title. To be clear about this Stellar Blade, you will have to wait at least until April 26, the game’s release date exclusively on PS5, to find out.
