Stellar Blade Reviews
I mostly had a great time with Stellar Blade with its combat being the real star of the show. Although exploration doesn't offer much exciting, it's still a worthwhile action adventure game that you're sure to have a lot of fun with. đĄď¸
In an era of risk-averse AAA development, Stellar Blade dares to embrace style, difficulty, and identity in equal measure. It delivers everything a premium title should for action RPG fans. And for SHIFT UP Corporation, they established the studio not as a curious newcomer but as a rising force in the genre. A dazzling hack-and-slash reinvention that shines brighter on PC.
Stellar Blade marks an impressive debut for Shift Up in the AAA scene. The title excels in the main pillars of a good game: refined and satisfying combat, engaging narrative and stunning technical aspects, such as graphics and soundtrack. Not everything is perfect, and the lack of budget at times is evident, but the potential is there. The future of the franchise is promising, and I can't wait for a sequel!

Stellar Blade on PC takes full advantage of modern hardware to deliver stunning visuals and fast-paced combat that hooks you from the first minute. While the story isn't as thrilling as its gameplay, the PC version is the ultimate choice for those looking for the best experience with well-optimized performance and extra content that expands the game's value. If you haven't played the PlayStation 5 version yet, or if PC is your platform of choice, Stellar Blade is a game you shouldn't miss.

Stellar Blade arrives on PC and is one of Sony's best ports ever. The spectacular moves of the beautiful Eve flow across our monitors without any lag or frame rate hesitation, and even on the portable Steam Deck, Shift Up's title surprised us with its playability. Excellent work!

Stellar Blade is exactly what it says on the tin. It isn't big, original, or even novel, and the experience turns tedious well before the 20-hour campaign draws to a close. The aggressive fanservice is equally dour and does nothing to hide the lazy shortcuts the narrative takes.

Stellar Blade is a game I could sit here and detail every single enemy, outfit, skill, and character, and feel I am never saying enough about it. Combat is downright incredible, and the style and substance this game brings is impressive.
Stellar Blade is more than just a pretty face. Itâs a grand entrance to what could be PlayStationâs next hugely successful IP. What the game lacks in story is made up for by its exhilarating combat and entertaining gameplay. Whatever is next for the Stellar Blade universe, I will be there on day one.
Stellar Blade isnât a perfect game. But in my view it is a great one, particularly as a first major âAAAâ release, and the first release for the studio on any console. Sony definitely did the right thing in snapping up Shift Up Corporation to bring them into the Sony Studios family, and I am looking forward to see what they come up with next!
Stellar Blade is a game that takes the risk of delivering an interesting and different experience. It takes advantage of its aesthetics, level of detail and gameplay to make a name for itself in a genre that is already saturated and feel like something refreshing.

Stellar Blade is an outstanding action RPG that captivates us from the very first hour of play and takes us on a unique adventure. The main story takes around 25 hours to play through and even offers us a New Game+ mode at the start. Stellar Blade impresses in the test and also offers us a first-class, dreamy soundtrack that has a lot to offer musically. We can recommend Stellar Blade and it is a must-have for anyone who owns a PS5.

In the end, the question must be asked: was the recent attention on Stellar Blade justified? After spending many hours with EVE, the answer is yes. The adventure is solid and fun, with an interesting combat system and a gameplay loop that goes beyond mere melee sequences. However, it isnât revolutionary, and the narrative reveals its cards too early. Despite these flaws, it offers a generous amount of content and is worth playing.

Stellar Blade has a satisfying combat system, an uncomplicated equipment system that we can easily adjust to our playstyle, and a beautiful protagonist, thanks to whom the game gained notoriety. In my opinion, it's unfair that such a good game had to ride the wave of a mild scandal to get players' attention. Playing it is just pure fun, and I definitely recommend it to everyone.
