Free Update Delivers Most-Wanted Features
Alongside the paid content, developer Shift Up has released a substantial free update focusing on player-requested features. The highlight is the long-anticipated photo mode, perfect for capturing Eve’s adventures in stunning detail. Players also receive:
- 4 new costumes for Eve
- 1 additional accessory
- Improved lip-sync across six localizations

Looking Ahead
While Stellar Blade remains a PlayStation 5 exclusive for now, PC gamers can mark their calendars for 2025, when the game is scheduled to make its debut on the platform.
