Apart from its engaging gameplay, Stellar Blade has garnered attention from gamers since it revealed the protagonist's model-like figure. Now, the developers have officially disclosed why they were able to achieve such impeccable curves for her. According to information released on Shift Up's official X account, they hired South Korean beauty Shin Jae-eun as a model to scan her figure into the game.
Subsequently, the development team made some adjustments to this model to create a unique style with the 'extra thicc' hips and thighs familiar to fans of Korean games, such as Blade & Soul. The result is an incredibly beautiful character, catering to the aesthetic tastes of gamers worldwide, instead of the 'market square' faces seen in games like Spider-Man 2 or Fable.
Currently, Stellar Blade (formerly known as Project EVE) is designated as a PlayStation 5 exclusive after Sony splashed cash to sign a deal with Shift Up. The game, initially set to release in 2023, has been delayed to 2024, with no exact release date announced yet. It's unclear whether the game will come to PC in the future, so the best way to catch a glimpse of Eve is to buy Sony's console.
