What is Stellar Blade?
Stellar Blade’s story takes place on a post-apocalyptic Earth, after a war with Naytiba that has seen humanity driven from the planet. Players take the role of a member of the 7th Airborn Squad, Eve. You are sent from an orbital colony to Earth on a mission to reclaim the planet from invading aliens.
Stellar Blade is played from a third-person perspective and the game utilises combat reminiscent of souls-like games. Learning and countering enemies’ attack patterns is the key. This mechanic will fill two Gauge bars that allow Eve to perform stunning powerful attacks and use Beta skills.
Various NPCs can be met while exploring the post-apocalyptic Earth, offering side quests and more. It is up to you to decide whether to help them or ignore them. Players can also find supply camp checkpoints scattered around the world. Using this, you can restore health, retrieve items, and more. Just keep in mind that using these checkpoints will respawn all nearby enemies.
