Ahead of the game’s launch on April 26, 2024, SHIFT UP took to X (formerly known as Twitter) and assured players that Stellar Blade would be uncensored in all countries, including Japan. This is certainly great news as sometimes games would have to be edited to meet certain guidelines, whether it be by a country’s rating organization (such as the ESRB, PEGI, or CERO) to meet a certain age rating, or even by the console’s parent company. Being able to get through all that regulatory red tape and still come out with the game uncensored for every country is quite the achievement, and Shift Up should be proud.
A special music video promoting the game featuring K-Pop star, BIBI, was also released recently. You can check that out below.
If you’re interested in the game, a demo is currently available to download on the PlayStation Store. You will be able to carry over your save data from the demo to the full game once it launches.
Stellar Blade launches on April 26 exclusively for PlayStation 5. The game will support multiple languages including nine voiceover options (Japanese voices locked to Japan version). You can check out the game’s official website and X account for more information.
