tellar Blade is an absolute masterpiece! The graphics are simply stunning, and the incredible soundtrack elevates the entire gameplay experience. The combat system, especially the epic and challenging boss fights, is incredibly satisfying.However, the absolute highlight for me is the ending. The story is unexpectedly deep and meaningful, and that plot twist involving completely blew my mind and left a lasting impression. A well-deserved 10/10 experience!

Eve por mucho una excelente protagonista, dejando de lado el apartado visual de su diseño que es hermoso por cierto, su trasfondo y la historia es muy buena

Western studios should reaaaaally learn from eastern studios how to make a good game with a VERY ATTRACTIVE female character. And it's more than just an attractive character, the gameplay and combat system are so fun i can't get enough of it. Best outfits in any game ever. The story is good but not the best, and the dlcs added some very cool things and bosses. Perfect game for souls like enjoyer.

This game is a masterpiece and one of the best modern action games that can only be surpassed by the second part.

A game that only got better as it went on. Great combat, and a phenomenal soundtrack. Even if the story wasn’t incredibly strong, everything else made up for it. This was a very memorable and fun experience

This is one of the best action games made. The only game with a similarly feeling world is Nier Automata. Very entertaining game and very re-playable with a nice New Game+ feature.

Es un juego que está bien aunque es un poco repetitivo y la historia la verdad es que no lo entiendo muy bien pero el juego en general está muy bien

Parry and dodge of this game is the absolutely WORST in the gaming history. The parry window is way way way too early for soulslike combat. And it doesn't get better, because all the passive and gears which make parry easier, only let you parry even earlier. WTF is Korean's combat skills? No wonder soulslike games aren't popular in Korea.

Stellar blade est un bon jeu sans être extraordinaire, le point fort du jeu réside dans son gameplay qui est vraiment très bon, sa bande son est aussi assez bonne, au delà de ça l’histoire est assez basique et les personnages ne sont pas très bien écrits ce qui fait qu’on s’y attache très peu. L’exploration elle aussi est assez moyenne, les zones ne sont pas très jolies et l’exploration n’y est pas très intéressante.

One of my favourite games! The gameplay is fun and flashy. The story is intriguing. The soundtrack is fantastic. The character designs and costumes are gorgeous. I don’t think the game is perfect. There were definitely some bugs and quality of life features that I think were missing. Overall, it was a great game though and I’m certainly looking forward to more Stellar Blade in the future!

Completely sublime experience ****, I missed playing this back in 2024 due to being focused on Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but after two years later I am finally realizing what I have been missing with the game. The combat feels great and crunchy, it is fast paced and took a little getting used to. I played the game first on Story mode because I felt personally it was very challenging. But after beating the game last night and starting a new game plus, I feel much more confident in my second playthrough now.Stellar Blade has a phenomenal soundtrack, and I mean it is really, really good. Go listen to tracks such as "White Night", "Beyond Fate" and "Everglow" and you will see what I mean. Tell me this game does not have soul after hearing just those tracks alone. But it isn't just those tracks, there is really good background ambience music to alot of the areas you visit such as the Great desert and even the beginning street area level.I think one of my favorite experiences in the game was in late game there is a certain environment you have to take like an elevator and there is a sequence that plays with the "Everglow" song in the background, it was really special for me and I have to give the developers credit for the sequence that plays here and the effects they showed, Earth looks great in the sequence as well.I think Eve is a likable character and despite the criticisms you usually may hear about this game, please don't listen to them and experience the game for yourself. Some also said the story was flat but I actually really enjoyed it. There is alot of intrigue and mystery - not everything has to be over explained like so many bad western media that over do this. I think especially towards the end one of the major reveals I sort of knew was coming (who Eve was in the context of the story and this futuristic plot) but it made me have even more appreciation for the overall story and Eve as a character. The thing is the game is absolutely more than just Eve and her figure, you can appreciate it sure - but the game is much more than that. I do not feel at all this game would have been as successful as it has been (6 million+ sales of the game on PS5 and PC) if it was just about playing dress up with a pretty girl. There story, the combat, Environment and music all combine to create a truly once of a lifetime experience. The closest game I can think of that reminds me of Stellar Blade has been Nier Automata, but I think Stellar Blade is even better in many ways in my ****'t listen to the noise, play and experience the game for yourself and decide - I am glad for one I gave this game a try after initially not really getting into it in 2024 playing the demo. Also try playing story mode first like I did, you will be glad you did. Start a new game + after and will feel much better at how to complete the rest of the game again being much more powerful the 2nd round through the **** try listening to the Soundtrack for this game as well! it is really really good.

A pure masterpiece! The critics are ****. Here is what the game is like - Nier Automata, Dark Souls action difficulty, and story like JRPG! It does take time to get used to controls and etc., but once you get going it's a blast! Graphics 10/10 Story 10/10
Characters 10/10 Controls 7/10 Music 10/10 I heard Stellar Blade 2 - Bloodrain is being worked on. This is an easy Game of the year!

One of the best games I’ve ever played in my life. Respect to the developers who respected to their audiences and provided a piece of entertainment that we are lacking for a while in a market that is bombarding by the political agendas and ****.

The real users GOTY 2024. A must play.
I’ve been gaming since the arcade era, and this game shows so much work and dedication with brutal gameplay, the perfect mix between a hack and slash and a soulslike with one of the best soundtracks ever.

While at times its hard to take a walking pair of boobs seriously, there are times when the satisfying combat, impressive visuals, and dynamic soundtrack come together to make one hell of a cool experience.

Perfection. Visuals in this game are absolutely beautiful and the soundtrack slaps. I figured Stellar Blade was going to be good but I literally dropped all other games to 100% this. Originally I didn't think I was going to get the Platinum for this but exploration is so rewarding and combat is some of the most fun ever. On top of all this the plot in this game is absolutely perfect and keeps you coming back for more. Seriously though Stellar Blade makes you feel like a bad ass from start to finish. The developers also deserve a lot of credit for all the post launch support. I can not wait for what they develop next.

Stellar Blade est un jeu qui a un trés bon gameplay combat, une musique qui est plutot bien notamment les chanson pernelle que j'adore sinon aussi certaine quete png sont pas mal la direction artistique du jeu est moyen il y a genre de tres bonne idée mais apres c'est BOF pour le negatif je dirais la protagoniste du jeu qu'elle est sans plus et pas un personnage mémorable comme certain le dise (bon apres ceux qui apprecie ce perso sont en majorité des mec du genre psycho et slapp) le scénario c'est moyen voir bof et les voix française sont CRINGE dans ce jeu et du coup j'ai fait le jeu en VO (l'anglais et le coréen) la note du jeu est 7/10

a must play. if u enjoy games like lies of p sekiro and neir u will love this game. one of the best combat systems out there and is super satifying and fun. the story was pretty decent but nothing to go crazy over. the game has a pretty good amount of content worth paying full price and worth getting for sure if its on sale.

It's simply blatant sexualization and objectification of women, designed for lonely men. Beyond that, there's nothing else in the game.

was such a good game i think everyone loves eve, the story was good and the game play was just so fire, i hope in the second game they improve it more by adding more weapons and better maps( not fan of sand) but the game over all is really really good

So, this game, I remember seeing a "Project EVE" teaser at some game show. It felt interesting and I made a mental note of it. When the release date was announced, I decided to preorder it as I had nothing I was actively playing at the time. Went in blind and holyy, was very-very pleasently surprised by the game. I usually play most of my games for the story, good combat is a plus, this game was the other way around for me. The combat got me hooked, VERY satisfying, story was okayish, not bad, not good, but the combat is amazing. I've now completed the game 3 times and am in the middle of my 4th run. I've Platinumed it on PS5 with 100% completion rate and waiting on SB2. Why 8? There is room to grow, especially in the story/world building compartment, combat is a 10/10.

An amazing game with great graphics and art direction. I am glad that the developers stuck to their guns with how they choose to design this game.

It’s a work where the director’s vision comes through strongly in the characters, art, graphics, and overall setting, but from a gameplay perspective, it feels significantly lacking. The controls are clunky, and compared to its apparent inspiration, NieR: Automata, the animations feel far less fluid.

시프트업의 첫 콘솔 타이틀임에도 불구하고 언리얼 엔진 4를 극한까지 끌어올린 비주얼 퀄리티는 동세대 타이틀과 견줘도 전혀 손색이 없다. 전투 시스템은 단순한 액션의 나열이 아닌, 패링·퍼펙트 회피·베타 스킬을 유기적으로 연계하는 구조로 설계되어 있어 숙련도에 따라 전투의 깊이가 달라지는 높은 완성도를 보여준다. 특히 보스전에서 공격 패턴을 분석하고 리듬감 있게 대응하는 과정은 소울라이크 장르의 쾌감을 계승하면서도 스텔라블레이드만의 고유한 플로우를 구축하는 데 성공했다. 서사 면에서는 포스트 아포칼립스라는 익숙한 배경에서 출발하지만, 중반 이후 세계관의 진실이 레이어별로 드러나는 방식이 인상적이며 결말부의 선택지 구조는 플레이어에게 묵직한 윤리적 질문을 던진다. OST 역시 보컬 트랙과 오케스트라 편곡이 장면의 감정선을 정밀하게 짚어내며, 게임 전반의 몰입도를 한층 끌어올리는 역할을 충실히 한다. 감점 요인이 있다면 일부 사이드 퀘스트의 설계가 메인 서사의 밀도에 비해 다소 단조롭다는 점인데, 이를 감안하더라도 스텔라블레이드는 한국 게임 산업의 새로운 기준점을 제시한 역작임이 분명하다.

Apart form the last few bosses being extremely more difficult, some pointless options in the main story and that I found that the developers didn't pay extra attention and effort to some engaging side-missions, the game delivers a magnificent amount and quality of ost, interactive action cutscenes, great story and worldbuilding, fun combat that never get repetitive or boring over time because you will always have new skills, moves and new game mechanics to add to your arsenal throughout your playthrough. Also, the game seems heavily inspired by nier which is good to me since I do consider nier automata in my top 10.

It's a 10/10 game! The graphics are top-notch, the game's length is excellent, it has great replay value, lots of exploration and dress-up options, and it's worth noting that the game runs incredibly smoothly on PS5 Pro. Beyond that, I hope we get more Stellar Blade games.

Game is badass. Eve is sexy af. I love unlocking new outfits and dolling her up. The combat is fluid and responsive. No jankiness at all. Story is OK, I guess it could be a bit more intriguing. Tons of replay value and collectibles to collect. Nothing like saying what's over here and next thing you know your on the side of mountain hang jumping your way to a soda can. I can't believe I didn't play this game sooner. I got it on sale with all DLC for $35. Deal of the year so far for me.

Stellar Blade my favorite ps5 game. This is the Ps5 Nier Automata. Intresting Story, amazing battle System, Perfect soundtrack and the ultimate,most sexy waifu protogonist ever. Nearly perfect game. This game kind must play title

After more than 80 hours on PS5 to earn the platinum, Stellar Blade impressed me mainly with its gameplay. The combat clearly takes inspiration from Sekiro and Souls games but remains very accessible and fluid, making fights extremely satisfying. The music is fantastic and the artistic design is stunning. However, the story is the weakest part: shallow characters, unnecessary dialogue, and side quests that fail to expand the capital’s lore. Despite that, the gameplay, style, and bold character designs make it a very memorable action game.

A solid 8.5/10 in my book. Great flow, finally working HDR, the battle system is PERFECTION. Feels like a soulslike game but is not, more like Jedi Survivor but damn if this game doesn't satisfy an itch long lost in games today. It was a good GAME. Story, not so much. But the gameplay is divine.

Despite the stupid culture war around this game it’s a very fun action game with Sekiro like elements to it. Other than an OK story and some boring bland areas there’s not much in this game to complain about. Platforming kinda **** though hopefully a sequel just abandons it

Playing as EVE feels incredibly satisfying, with a parry-driven combat system that feels rewarding, reminiscent of Sekiro but with its own flashy, anime-inspired **** world design is gorgeous and packed with secrets, making exploration enjoyable, especially when rewarded with the game’s impressive array of unlockable outfits, all obtainable through gameplay. While the story takes a backseat to the action, the intense boss fights and excellent soundtrack create a "flow-state" experience that makes it hard to put down. It’s an absolute gem for fans of character-action games, offering a high-polish, 30-hour adventure that feels both modern and nostalgic.

Gameplay and Mechanics
The control scheme is simple and the combat feels smooth and very responsive. For the difficulty and balance aspects, there are 3 difficulty modes story, normal and hard. The game is easier than Sekiro for comparison.
Performance and Optimisation
The developers have optimised the game very well in my opinion. Even without DLSS and frame gen I am able to get 120+ fps on 1080p high.
Audio and Graphics
Given I play the game at the high preset, the graphics are amazing. Shadows, motion and water reflections are all great. Audio is good with a few amazing soundtracks.

The combat system is well designed and engaging, offering a solid range of possibilities that keep fights interesting. There’s also a good amount of content, including side missions that add extra depth. The game does a great job rewarding players for their progress. And, of course… we all know the skins are a highlight. :)

Stellar Blade is one of the few modern action games that actually feels confident in what it wants to be. The combat is stylish, satisfying, and rewarding without feeling mindless, and the game has a strong visual identity that makes it stand out immediately. It doesn’t just rely on flashy presentation either — there’s real weight to the gameplay, and that makes every fight feel engaging.What I like most is that it feels polished and deliberate. The atmosphere, character design, music, and overall flow come together in a way that makes the whole experience feel memorable rather than disposable. In a time where so many big games feel bloated or confused, Stellar Blade feels focused, sharp, and genuinely fun.

This game is deceiving because when you look up the developers (Shift Up) you’ll assume they’ve made games like Stellar Blade before. But you’d be wrong since prior to this game they had only made mobile games. So the fact they made a game this good is really cool. My favorite aspect of Stellar Blade is the combat and how challenging but rewarding it is and as someone who really enjoys “parry-everything” games I cannot recommend this game enough. The narrative does leave a lot to be desired but Shift Up even acknowledged this themselves so I expect the sequel to have a more engaging story.
