The director of Stellar Blade (Hyung Tae Kim) has announced, via the PlayStation Blog, that the free playable demo will be available on PlayStation 5 starting Friday, March 29, 2024 from 10AM EST / 7AM PST.
The demo takes place from the very beginning of the game when Eve, a member of the 7th Airborne Squad is sent to Earth on a mission to reclaim the planet from the Naytiba, up to the first boss fight. This first stage will include the tutorial phase to help you familiarize yourself with basic combat features as you explore post-war Eidos 7, a human city now infested by the Naytiba, giving you an early grasp of gameplay mechanics that will serve you throughout the game’s story.
From the smooth 60fps combat to the haptics, you’ll feel through the DualSense wireless controller, there are various charms of the game that you can only confidently appreciate through hands-on experience.
If you complete the demo stage, you can carry over your save data when the full game releases on April 26, 2024 starting from the last checkpoint. Please note that save data must be stored on your PS5 system.
