Action role-playing game Stellar Blade earned high marks for battles and graphics – Gambling

Journalists shared their reviews and ratings of the action game Stellar Blade. Let us remind you that it will be released exclusively for PlayStation 5 on April 26. The upcoming new product was highly praised by critics who believe that the studio Shift Up set the bar high for future action role-playing games.

85 points – Opencritic, recommended by 97% of reviewers (based on 35 reviews);
Score 81 – Metacritic, based on 68 reviews.

Among the key aspects of Stellar Blade are dynamic battles, as well as beautiful visuals and high-quality music. One of the few problems a number of critics call is the approach to storytelling, when the pace and dynamics can decrease at certain moments.

Reviewer IGN praised that the developers do not focus exclusively on furious battles. For example, you will be able to go down into a creepy dungeon, where almost the entire arsenal of the heroine is useless – at this moment Stellar Blade remembers horror. The battles remain very interesting due to their dynamics and variety of monsters, but the plot and characters lack “substance”. Side quests also turned out to be boring and force you to visit already completed locations.

Portal GameSpot stated that the sequel to NieR: Automata could turn out like Stellar Blade. However, it is unlikely that the new product will be able to reach the same heights as its inspirers. Many moments turned out to be too long, and the environment cannot boast of variety. But the combat system does not get boring over time, and some plot lines can be compared with the leaders of the action role-playing genre in terms of elaboration.

Journalist God is a Geek I appreciated the fast-paced battles and “grotesque” opponents, as well as the unremarkable but high-quality voice acting of the story videos. Special mention goes to the puzzles and mini-games that don’t distract from the action. As a result, the new product was recommended to fans Bayonetta, Devil May Cry and other fast-paced slashers.

Let us remind you that the developers of Stellar Blade promised an uncensored release in all countries. And even the creator of NieR Yoko Taro himself is waiting for the new product, who said that Stellar Blade looks better than NieR: Automata.
