PlayStation Australia is pleased to announce the upcoming free playable demo for Stellar Blade, coming Saturday, 30 March to PlayStation 5.

The demo takes place from the very beginning of the game when Eve, a member of the 7th Airborne Squad is sent to Earth on a mission to reclaim the planet from Naytiba, up to the first boss fight. This first stage will include the tutorial phase to help players familiarise themselves with basic combat features as they explore post-war Eidos 7, a human city now infested by the Naytiba giving players an early grasp of gameplay mechanics that will serve them throughout the game’s story.

There is also a little surprise included for players who complete the first stage.

From the smooth 60fps combat to the haptics, players will feel through the DualSense wireless controller, there are various charms of the game that players can only confidently appreciate through hands-on experience.

For those who complete the demo stage, they can carry over their save data when the full game releases on Friday, 26 April, starting from the last checkpoint. Please note the save data must be stored on your PS5 system.

The Stellar Blade demo will be available Saturday, 30 March.
