About Stellar Blade
Stellar Blade tells a sci-fi story about humans who have fled into the stars after alien invaders known as the Naytiba decimated Earth. Players take the role of Eve, an android sent to the ruins of Earth to reclaim it from the Naytiba. In that pursuit, she will engage in high-octane real-time gameplay that threads between rapid combat, exploration, and a deeper unraveling of the mysteries that lie beneath Earth’s surface. For a deeper look, check out an official synopsis below.
RECLAIM EARTH FOR HUMANKIND
The future of humanity hangs in the balance in Stellar Blade, an all-new story-driven action adventure on PlayStation 5.
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, 7th Airborne Squad member 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…

A once bustling metropolis, Xion is now populated by a scattering of human survivors, many in dire need of EVE’s help.
