Stellar Blade has made a big impression since its launch in April earlier this year. As an AAA tier game by a previously lesser known developer, Shift Up, the third-person action title released to a largely warm reception, notably becoming the highest user score rated PlayStation 5 exclusive at the moment. Though Stellar Blade did see a bit of a stir over some of its character designs and cosmetics, its finely tuned gameplay turned out to be one of its true stars, and it was hailed as an accomplished and satisfying experience in many areas.
