If you’re wondering how Stellar Blade is shaping up on Nintendo Switch 2, we have you covered with some of the first gameplay from the port.
Shift Up just showed off the title with a new trailer last week. The company has followed up with several minutes of direct-feed docked footage.
For those that haven’t been keeping up with this one, here’s an overview of the game:
The future of humanity is balanced on the edge of a blade. Ravaged by strange, powerful creatures, Earth has been abandoned, and what is left of the decimated human race has fled to a Colony in outer space.
After travelling from the Colony, EVE arrives on the desolate remains of our planet with a clear-cut mission: to save humankind by reclaiming Earth from the Naytiba – the malevolent force that has devastated it.
But as EVE tackles the Naytiba one-by-one, piecing together the mysteries of the past in the ruins of human civilization, she realizes that her mission is far from straightforward. In fact, almost nothing is as it seems…
Engage in blisteringly fast combat as you slash a path through the remnants of Earth. Unleash graceful yet brutal attacking combos, unlock new moves and weapon upgrades, and face epic boss encounters that will challenge both brain and brawn in equal measure.
Become immersed in a highly detailed post-apocalyptic world that blends beauty and horror to spectacular effect.
Unravel a gripping human fate story, with mature themes, a thought-provoking narrative and emotionally-charged revelations from beginning to end.
Take a look at the Stellar Blade Nintendo Switch 2 gameplay below.
