Stellar Blade is a popular game from the studio Shift Up. Released in April 2024, it’s an action-adventure game where you play as Eve, on her quest to retake Earth from the alien Naytibas. It is a PS5 exclusive (the PC port is planned, but the remaining details are still unknown) and was positively received by players and critics, having an 81/100 score on Metacritic and having sold over one million units in just two months. The game is still popular today, months after its release, and now, with the official release of Sony’s newest console, PlayStation 5 Pro, getting closer and closer, the latest patch makes sure that Stellar Blade gets the PS5 Pro support tag.
Patch 1.008 Adds PlayStation 5 Pro Support to Stellar Blade
On October 23, Shift Up released a new patch for Stellar Blade. Among some minor bug fixes, the devs added a high frame-rate mode, and more graphics modes, geared towards PS5 Pro.
- Added support for PlayStation 5 Pro.
- Introduced High Frame Rate (HFR) Mode to minimize input lag and enhance frame rate performance.
- HFR Mode requirements:
- Display must support 120 Hz output.
- Enable 120 Hz Output in PlayStation 5 settings (Settings > Screen and Video > Video Output).
- Available graphics modes:
- Prioritize Performance: Focuses on frame rate.
- Balanced: Balances resolution and frame rate.

Stellar Blade is famous for its visuals (some would say “controversial”) so upgrading the graphics to fully make use of everything PS5 Pro has to offer will no doubt have fantastic results. We just have to wait a few more weeks for the official release of PlayStation 5 Pro.
