Stellar Blade pulls a lot of design elements from the Soulslike genre like its combat and camp system, which will likely feel familiar to veteran Soulslike players. Although Stellar Blade doesn't lean too far into the more hardcore elements of Soulslikes, and is generally more forgiving than the likes of games like Elden Ring and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, the game still brings some unique new mechanics to the genre. Out of these features, Stellar Blade's scanning mechanic seems like the perfect addition to a potential Bloodborne sequel that FromSoftware would be wise to include if this follow-up game is ever made.
