Sony Interactive Entertainment and Shift Up announced new action game Stellar Blade will launch on April 26, 2024 for PlayStation 5. The game was originally slated for a 2023 release, before Sony announced a delay to a general 2024 window.
Stellar Blade news was scarce after the release of a stunning gameplay trailer in September 2022. 2023 still proved to be a notable year for the game, with PlayStation announcing publishing duties for Stellar Blade. As the game’s publisher, Sony will release Stellar Blade worldwide.

Reclaim Earth for humankind.
Save humanity from extinction in this electrifying story-driven action adventure.
The future of humanity is balanced on the edge of a blade. Ravaged by strange, powerful creatures, Earth has been abandoned, and what is left of the decimated human race has fled to a Colony in outer space.
After traveling from the Colony, Paratrooper Eve arrives on the desolate remains of our planet with a clear-cut mission: to save humankind by reclaiming Earth from the NA:tive – the malevolent force that has devastated it.
But as Eve tackles the NA:tive one-by-one, piecing together the mysteries of the past as she explores the ruins of human civilization, she realizes that her mission is far from straightforward. In fact, almost nothing is as it seems…
