Stellar Blade is currently one of the most anticipated PlayStation 5 games of 2014. This game would be launching later this month, and it would definitely be akin to a celebration for its fans. The game has gained a lot of popularity over the last few months; some are looking forward to its combat, while others are interested in the world that the developers have crafted in this title.

But one thing that everyone loves about this game is its protagonist, Eve. There’s been a lot of buzz around how Eve looks in Stellar Blade. Many have opposed it, and many have supported it. But it looks like none of the video game regulatory organizations have found anything worth cutting from this game.

The Stellar Blade would be released without any cuts all over the world

When this game was released in 2019, it was called Project Eve. Back then, it was a multiplatform title that was to be released for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Eventually, after the launch of PlayStation 5, developer Shift Up changed their stance and announced this game would be exclusive to Sony’s console.

Eventually, this game started getting trailers after trailers, and fans noticed that its protagonist was looking too good to be true. She was, of course, named Eve by the developers, a warrior tasked with ridding the Earth of dangerous aliens who have made their home on this planet.

Many naysayers came around criticizing how this character looked; they even suggested that her character model was in fact unrealistic. But that was not accurate, as eventually it was revealed that Eve was modeled after a South Korean model named Shin Jae-eun.

Eventually, the game’s director came around, talking about how he loved his game and how he intentionally designed Eve as she was. His reason was pretty straightforward: he wanted to play games where he could control beautiful characters that were not average or below average.

The game is now just a couple weeks away!

It even made sense to people; many even tried the game’s demo and concluded that while playing the game, they never thought Eve’s look mattered. This makes sense too; when a person gets too involved in a game, they either see the hud or the enemy; they hardly have time to focus on the character, especially in a fast-paced game like Stellar Blade.

This game is also full of some imagery that is only suitable for a mature audience. Hence, many were worried that regulatory organizations such as ESRB or PEGI would find something to cut from this game, but it turns out they did not.
