Stellar Blade is gradually turning out to be 2024’s one of the most awaited games. While fans are curious to learn more about it, there’s an interesting rumor doing rounds online, shared by an anonymous leaker. Back in September 2022, the game’s release window was revealed to be 2023 but late last year, it was delayed. And fans were only told that it would release this year. However, one gamer claims to know a more specific release window as well as the gameplay length.
Developed by Shift-Up, Stellar Blade will be made using Unreal Engine 4. Back in 2019, it was originally introduced under the name of Project Eve. Later, however, the makers changed the plans and gave it a new title. Apart from certain gameplay videos shared so far, there’s not much information available on this PS5 exclusive. But the recent leak may prove to be a much needed update.
