Summary

  • A new Stellar Blade update dropped yesterday, making changes to the character model physics.
  • It seems that there was a particular focus on chest physics, naturally.
  • There are also some bug fixes, but that's not what's getting the most attention here.

Stellar Blade received a new update yesterday, adding some quality-of-life features and bug fixes. However, there's one part of the update that's gotten more attention to the rest: some changes made to the game's physics. And yes, that means exactly what you think it does.

As of the latest update, Stellar Blade's physics now handles Eve's, uh, assets a little differently. In an example shared by developer Shift Up, we can see that Eve's arms no longer clip into her chest when she's bending down - which, of course, means she presses the girls together instead. All in the name of realism, I'm sure.

Stellar Blade Update Makes Physics Changes

You can check out the patch notes from Shift Up here, but fans are quickly sharing their own finds online. As you can see below, the changes made to Stellar Blade's physics affect one part of Eve in particular, and I think it's fair to say that the devs knew what they were doing here.

Fans of attractive robots have had a lot to be happy about lately. At Sony's recent State of Play, it was revealed that Stellar Blade is getting a Nier Automata crossover. There's no release date for this collaboration, but it looks like it will add new skins into the game, obviously including a 2B outfit for Eve. It was also revealed that Stellar Blade is getting a photo mode, which I'm frankly surprised it didn't have already.

Stellar Blade is available exclusively on PlayStation 5.
