Exciting news for gamers eagerly anticipating the PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade! Developer Shift Up has assured fans that the game will not undergo any censorship, no matter the region, including notoriously strict Japan.
This announcement comes as a relief, especially considering Japan’s tough rating board, CERO, which famously banned the Dead Space remake last year due to its graphic content.
While concerns initially centered around potential censorship related to violence and gore, Stellar Blade also faced scrutiny for its portrayal of sexualized characters.
Despite the protagonist being based on a real-life model, some fans worried about possible censorship, particularly in Western markets. However, Shift Up has put these fears to rest by confirming that the game will remain uncensored worldwide.
Collab with KPOP Artist Bibi to promote the game
As anticipation builds for Stellar Blade’s release, Sony is pulling out all the stops with its marketing efforts. Teaming up with Korean singer Bibi, they’ve released an official song for the game.
Although the video and song lyrics might leave some scratching their heads, there’s no denying the catchy tune will get stuck in your head!
After what seems like an eternity of waiting, the day has finally arrived: Stellar Blade is set to launch exclusively on the PS5 this Friday, April 26. Gamers can’t wait to go into the action-packed world of Stellar Blade, now with the reassurance that they’ll experience the game as intended, without any censorship concerns.
