Looking for a PS5 game deal in the PlayStation Direct Store sale<\/u><\/a> that\u2019s full of action? You could do a lot worse than Stellar Blade.<\/p>\n

Shift Up\u2019s popular 2024 title is just $39.99 right now<\/u><\/a>, a clean $10 off of its Black Friday pricing from last year. That\u2019s a great deal, and Target is even matching it if you prefer<\/u><\/a> to buy from there, netting you 43% off whichever way you slice it (get it? Because it\u2019s a blade? Never mind).<\/p>\n

\n

As far as technical showcases for the PlayStation 5 (or its pricier Pro sibling) go, Stellar Blade is certainly up there.<\/p>\n

This character action title puts players in the cyber-shoes of EVE, pitting her against waves of foes and challenging boss fights, but giving her some of the flashiest combat skills in this console generation.<\/p>\n

Our reviewer Mitchell Saltzman gave the game 7 out of 10 in his review<\/u><\/a> for IGN, saying \u201cStellar Blade is great in all of the most important ways for an action game, but dull characters, a lackluster story, and several frustrating elements of its RPG mechanics prevent it from soaring along with the best of the genre.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re here for the action, though, this saving is well worth a look. A sequel, unsurprisingly titled Stellar Blade 2<\/u><\/a>, is in development at the time of writing.<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

For more sale items, the PlayStation Direct sale is well worth a look for Death Stranding fans. The Death Stranding 2: On the Beach Collector\u2019s Edition is discounted, as well as the limited edition controller commemorating the game\u2019s 2025 launch.<\/p>\n
