Trusted industry insider @Zuby_Tech recently shared huge news on X, with their post suggesting that Stellar Blade now has the highest user score of all time for a PS5 game on the Metacritic website. To be precise, it has received a "Universal Acclaim" and a rating of 9.3 from people who have played it after its launch on the PlayStation 5.

As of this writing, the user score for this game on Metacritic sits at 9.3 based on more than 3,600 user reviews. What's interesting to note is that over 3,400 people have given it positive feedback, resulting in its high user score.

Prior to its phenomenal reception at launch, Shift Up's ambitious action-adventure title had already gotten mostly favorable reviews from critics. Currently, it has an impressive Metascore of 82 based on over 120 critic reviews.

This kind of reception was sort of foreshadowed early last month when it was revealed that the demo for this PS5 exclusive attracted close to 690,000 daily active users.

As such, it won't be an exaggeration to say that Stellar Blade can be a solid contender for the Game of the Year award in December. The title's got a lot going for it and continues to do well despite recent controversies involving censorship and Eve's character design.
