The premise, in the publisher's words
At the start of the 22nd century, the AI known as Mother Sphere was created to advance humanity, but the arrival of monstrous creatures called Naytibas drove humans from Earth. From their orbital sanctuary, the Colony sends elite soldiers to reclaim the planet. Eve, a soldier from the 7th Airborne Squad, is the sole survivor of a failed operation. Rescued by Adam, a scavenger who remained on Earth, she reaches Xion, humanity's last city. As Eve hunts Alpha Naytibas to locate the Elder Naytiba, she uncovers a disturbing truth: the "humans" from the Colony are synthetic beings called Andro-Eidos, created by Mother Sphere to replace the original humans, and the Naytibas are what real humans…

What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel® Core™ i5-7600k Processor / AMD Ryzen™ 5 1600X Processor, 16 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB or AMD Radeon RX 580 8GB. A 16GB memory requirement is demanding — worth checking before you buy, because 8GB is still common in older and budget machines. Install size is roughly 75GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it costs, and where
Storefront pricing varies enormously by country: Philippines is the cheapest region we track at ₱2,990.00 (about $47.52), while Saudi Arabia pays SAR 299.00 — 1.7 times more. In Pakistan it is priced at Rs 60 on Steam, which is about $59.99.
What it launched against
Stellar Blade launched on 26 April 2024, within three weeks of Animal Well, Indika, V Rising and Little Kitty, Big City. It reviewed better than 1 of the 4. It arrived 4 years into the PlayStation 5's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Animal Well, Indika, V Rising, Little Kitty, Big City.
