PlayStation’s Stellar Blade is a ludicrously horny action game that apes every major idea from this era’s most popular releases – and anime as a whole. It features a vacuous, over-sexualized protagonist named Eve who swings wildly between being a helpless fawn and an unstoppable killing machine. Despite its gratuitous male gaze, Stellar Blade is unintentionally funny and surprisingly enjoyable, offering a mix of Nier: Automata’s meditative combat, Dead Space’s creepy underground facilities, and Horizon’s apocalyptic natural terrain. While it never quite lives up to its inspirations, its 40-hour campaign manages to retain your interest, if you can ignore the side quests and focus on the main objectives.
