Alright, so picture this: out of nowhere, Stellar Blade became this wild sensation last year. Honestly, I didn’t see it coming. Did anyone? Anyway, here we are, waiting for Shift Up to keep riding that wave. This time, it’s hitting the PC scene, and there’s a new Complete Edition too. They’re not playing around.
Right, so I got sidetracked—back to the news: a trailer popped up on PlayStation’s YouTube, but oops, it got pulled down quicker than I delete awkward tweets. Lucky for us, the internet never forgets! Fans snagged it and, boom, it’s all over the Stellar Blade subreddit. Mark your calendar: June 11 is the magic day for PC and PS5 nerds alike — same deal for that Complete Edition.
Now, what’s in this Complete Edition, you ask? Oh boy, it’s like a gamer’s Christmas list: full game, some fancy Planet Diving Suit for Eve (Captain vibes anyone?), plus Fluffy Bear Pack Drone Cosmetics. Oh, and those Nikke and Nier: Automata DLC bits too. Preordering? They’re throwing in Classic Round Glasses, Ear Armor Earrings, and a white version of that Diving Suit. Because why not, right?
And prices? Yeah, they’re keeping that under wraps—gotta love a little mystery. But since that video slip-up, we should hear more soon-ish. Fingers crossed!
Remember how Stellar Blade rocked the reviews last year? Like, an 81 on Metacritic from a whopping 134 critics. Impressive, right? It even snagged some shiny awards, taking home the Platinum for Best New Character. Kudos to them.
Sales went nuts too. Shift Up was so hyped they gave every employee a bonus—a sweet 5 million won, or $3,400 if dollars make more sense to you—and a PS5 Pro. I mean, talk about a thank-you gift!
So, there you have it. Stellar Blade keeps surprising us. What’s next? Ah, who knows. But I’m all eyes and ears.
