Following a review of the game that highlighted the graffiti, PlayStation released a statement acknowledging the issue. They stated that the placement of the two graphics near each other resulted in an unintentional objectionable phrase. The team at Shift Up emphasized that they had no intention of creating offensive artwork and prioritized replacing the graffiti for the Day 1 patch. This fix will ensure that both digital and physical copies of Stellar Blade are free from the offensive content upon release. It’s important to note that Stellar Blade has received positive feedback from critics, with many praising its gameplay, combat animations, and stunning environments. The game is set to make its triumphant console debut exclusively on the PlayStation 5 on April 26, 2024.
