The PS5 exclusive Stellar Blade, which is inspired by NieR Automata and Bayonetta, already promises free content, including one highly anticipated and popular with players.
Stellar Blade is one of the big video game releases for April 2024 and will be available exclusively on PS5 from April 26. And according to my dear colleague with the panda avatar who sticks out his tongue, it’s extremely promising. In his words, the title also seems “well on its way to establishing itself as an ultra-nervous and visually impressive action game”. An essential hybrid between Platinum Games and FromSoftware productions? We will see with our test of the final version. For your part, don’t forget that there is a demo on the PlayStation Store and other gifts are coming.
Free Stellar Blade content announced
Ahead of the launch of Stellar Blade, Kim Hyung-tae, director and director of the Shift Up studio, takes part in interviews. It is through this that we learned that he does not close the door to a sequel. And besides, according to a job offer, this might already be in the cards. But for now, the creator has spoken about the release and wanted to make things clear. There will be no microtransactions… except possibly for costumes in collaboration with other licenses.
“We wanted to clarify that Stellar Blade will not incur any additional fees for players that they are not aware of, beyond what they paid for the game”. There is a classic physical and digital edition at €79.99, and a special digital version at €89.99. “The only exception being that if we create costumes using a license from another company, we may market them for a fee” he adds.
Free costumes for Stellar Blade should appear after launch, and later, perhaps there will be some that will be paid. But Kim Hyung-tae also announces a New Game Plus which, as very often, will not be included when the game is released. You will have to wait for its arrival on an unknown date via a completely free update. ” Moreover, there is no NG+ in the launch version. Expect it to arrive very soon via an update » he concluded (via Genki_JPN).
