Hot on the heels of the recent news that Shift Up mentioned Stellar Blade would be optimized for Steam Deck and other smaller devices, we have a Steam page and release month.
During the PlayStation State of Play February 2025 edition, it was announced that "Both the PC version of Stellar Blade and the Goddess of Victory: Nikke DLC (available on PS5 and PC) launch in June". To go along with that the Steam page has been set live so you can wishlist and follow it now too.
More about it from the Steam page:
Explore an awe-inspiring post-apocalyptic world
The future of humanity is balanced on the edge of a blade. 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, 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 thrilling slice of razor-sharp action
Engage in blisteringly fast combat as you slash a path through the remnants of Earth. Unleash graceful yet brutal attacking combos, unlock new moves and weapon upgrades, and face epic boss encounters that will challenge both brain and brawn in equal measure.
An incredible visual experience
Become immersed in a highly detailed post-apocalyptic world that blends beauty and horror to spectacular effect.
A deep, unforgettable adventure
Unravel a gripping human fate story, with mature themes, a thought-provoking narrative and emotionally-charged revelations from beginning to end.
This is going to be quite the treat for gamers on PC / Steam Deck. I can't wait to see how it runs with Proton to see what all the fuss is about on this.

I was hoping ShiftUp would be self publishing, or get anyone else but Sony for the PC release (like how Death Stranding is published by 505 on PC), so the game would have regional pricing, since that's not something Sony does, all their games are selling for incredibly unreasonable pricing here and they're losing money not offering them as per Steam's regional pricing guidelines.
This will be my first souls-like game (not a fan of the other games, too depressing visually), but I am going to try and actually get good before I pull out the cheat trainer and go full on easy mode.
