PlayStation 5 – Stellar Blade review

Battling on a post apocalyptic world against huge and terrifying monsters is what Stellar Blade is all about. You play Eve, a warrior who has witnessed her entire squad be murdered at the hands of the enemies (in an incredibly brutal way), as she adventures through the entire game trying to turn the tide on an already lost war!

The story for this game is super interesting. It very quickly puts you into the action and will shock you with the graphic and violent cut scenes . As well as this, the graphics are incredible throughout. Stellar Blade definitely uses the entirety of the PS5’s system and it’s really noticeable on screen. But once you get past the pretty images and the cool story, I think you’ll find the gameplay isn’t that enjoyable at all.

We love third person games like this, especially ones that give unique challenges and cool skill trees, but we found ourselves struggling to truly enjoy any of the fights. This isn’t because it’s far too easy or really hard. It works well in that regard. It’s just that the combat attacks don’t feel in any way powerful, and are rarely rarely fun to battle out. So realistically this game may not just be for us, but if you’re a fan of Bayonetta or Devil May Cry there’s certainly something here for you and possibly enjoy it far more than we did.

This game looks great. Has a brilliant story. But it’s not really much fun to play. Stellar Blade isn’t a bad game as such, and some gamers may enjoy it. It just feels like the developers spent far too much time making a movie you can play and forgot they were meant to be making a game that looks like a movie.
