The PC version of Stellar Blade is in development, and developer Shift Up expects it to be more successful than the console version.
A detailed comparison of Stellar Blade reveals the PC version offers superior visuals and performance over the PS5 Pro.
You're right about that.
And at 1:52 I think the shadows actually look better on the console. It's got distance corrected softening.
Overall this isn't a big win for PC it's a little sharper on far more pricy hardware.
Im really struggling to see tangible clear improvement to visuals on either version. They look identical to me.
More like a $900 PC vs $700 console. Sony ports arrive already optimized for low-end hardware.
@Babadook7 They used multiple configurations, but the 5060 Ti is the standout of the comparison. You don't need a 5090 to max this game.
"The PC version of Stellar Blade demonstrates outstanding optimization, delivering buttery-smooth performance even at max settings. Its implementation of multi-frame generation technology shines particularly bright on NVIDIA’s RTX 50 series – a GeForce RTX 5060 Ti can push frame rates beyond 150 FPS with all graphical bells and whistles enabled. This not only highlights the developers’ technical mastery but also showcases the game engine’s impressive scalability across PC hardware configurations."
And right in the video description:
"Thanks to this technology, we can run Stellar Blade at over 150fps with maximum settings on a 5060Ti."
@Shiore
They don’t say they use a 5060TI anywhere but the comparison with other cards. Fake frames are not as good as real ones. So for a 5060TI this would likely run at well under the native FPS used by the ps5 pro. Why would you choose to accept that hit in latency?They most likely compared the 5090 in each comparison that wasn’t labeled otherwise.
@Babadook7 In the video you can see the performance with the configuration listing, which showcases the 5060 Ti. So yes they used it. Doesn't matter if it's throughout. The game is being maxed out on the 5060 Ti, at those settings there is no visual difference between it and 5090 as both are at the "setting ceiling".
Saying “fake frames are not as good as real ones” misses the point of what frame generation is actually doing. The GPU still renders the core frames like normal, but frame generation intelligently adds inbetween frames using motion data, which makes everything look much smoother, especially at high framerates, The 5060 Ti; a middle card in the 50 series line up handles above 150 frames in this game, so it's utilized well in part with it's native optimization. You can check what the recommended requirements are for this game for 1440p 60, we're talking hardware from almost ten years ago.
You can make an argument for competitive games where latency and Nvidia Reflex can only do so much currently, but not for slower paced single-player, cinematic stuff where frame gen legitimately improves the experience past a performance threshold, such as shown in the benchmark.
You just triggered a ton of people. The video shows such little difference. You just destroyed their worldview.
It´s a $500 5060Ti vs $700 PS5 Pro console! All it takes is to read the damn video description on Youtube.
"It is one of the games that best use multi frame generation for the RTX 50 series. Thanks to this technology, we can run Stellar Blade at over 150fps with maximum settings on a 5060Ti."
You´ll never gonna admit that the PS5 Pro is nothing but a huge scam!
Moreover, if you're using a CPU released within the last decade such as the recommended i5-8400 you'd still be fine upgrading to a 5060ti, the bottleneck would be negligible to performance.

To be fair it looks great on a base ps5 too.
All games look better on a high end PC that is just stating the obvious. This article is just click bait trying to get people arguing.
You don't need a 5090 to show improvements, even a 4070 can have better results, especially if you use reshade, come on PC people you need to use reshade in most PC games.😂
Stellar Blade is now available for PC; here are the best settings for optimized performance on mid-end systems & Steam Deck.
Stellar Blade is the latest PS5 launch on PC. We analyzed its graphics settings to find the right quality-performance balance for your PC.
But, but, but ... the PC people only pirate their games /s
Successful as in selling more or successful as in a better experience? If only the author could actually record the Q&A and provide a direct quote rather than second-hand paraphrasing.
well skin mods.....wonder how many hours till nude mod
I’m still playing through the PS5 version which already runs and looks great. I just got to the Great desert so it’s a slow burn for me.
