It was recently revealed that Stellar Blade was given 'Universal Acclaim' by PS5 gamers after its user score was above 9 on the Metacritic website. It's very rare for any new video game IP to get a user score beyond 9 on the review aggregating platform. However, Stellar Blade has achieved this milestone despite being Shift Up's first big AAA console exclusive.

As of writing, Stellar Blade has a user score of 9.1, earning it 'Universal Acclaim' on Metacritic. The score is based on ratings provided by 975 players so far, most of whom have given it a positive review. That said, it has become the third-best-rated PlayStation game in history, at least for now.

Perhaps the best USP of this hack-and-slash title is its female protagonist Eve and her character design. Despite the controversy surrounding her appearance and body frame, the game has succeeded in wooing fans and critics with an excellent combat design, breathtaking visuals, and of course, its top-notch music.
