Developed by Shift Up, Stellar Blade is the first non-gacha game from the studio to release in the U.S. Known for its challenging soulslike gameplay, stunning visuals, and an unforgettable soundtrack, the game has garnered praise for its core mechanics while sparking mixed opinions about its storytelling and side content. In IGN's review, Mitchell Saltzman noted that while the narrative and secondary quests fall short, the combat system shines with its Sekiro-inspired mechanics and rewarding exploration elements. IGN awarded Stellar Blade a 7/10 rating, though personal preferences may vary.
Performance Insights:
Stellar Blade demands a robust system to deliver its best experience. To ensure smooth gameplay, I opted for the "Performance" mode to maintain 60fps. However, owners of the PlayStation 5 Pro will enjoy enhanced features, including 4K resolution at 50fps or higher. According to PlayStation's official blog, Pro users can expect improved details in PSSR upscale mode and the option for high frame rate (HFR) at 80fps (with 120Hz display support).
