- Stellar Blade, on launch, broke the player record of every single player game by Sony.
- The game has also received an overwhelmingly positive review on Steam.
- It has now been revealed that the game has sold one million copies on PC faster than it did on the PS5.
Stellar Blade was finally released on PC a few days after a long period of anticipation. The game on launch broke the records of every single-player game released by Sony on PC before, as it reached almost 200k concurrent players.
It received a pretty positive reception from the fandom, which makes sense given that it is extremely well-optimised. It hasn’t been a week since Stellar Blade was released on PC, and it has already sold a million copies. The game has sold this many copies, 19 times faster than it did on the PS5.
Why it matters: Stellar Blade was released as a PS5 exclusive on its official launch. This demonstrates the significant number of PC gamers who are willing to support games that matter to them.
In a recent post by Ruliweb, a South Korean media, it was revealed that the title has sold 3 million copies in just three days. When Stellar Blade was released as a PS5 exclusive, it took almost two months to sell a million copies.

Many people have said that due to the timed exclusivity, fans of different platforms get tired of waiting and often don’t end up buying the game when it is released on their preferred platform. While that is true, it didn’t really happen with Stellar Blade.
The proof of that is right in front of you. If a game is good, the fandom will buy it; it is that simple. However, it is also true that the fandom can get tired of waiting. It should also be noted that Shift Up forced Sony to remove the PSN restriction, allowing fans throughout the world to play this game.
These aspects matter, and that is precisely why the game sold this many copies so quickly. Now, imagine the sales if this game were released day one on PC.
