'Stellar Blade' Is Now The Highest User Scored PS5 Game Ever Which Is…A Bit Excessive

"Stellar Blade" has achieved the highest user score for a PS5 game on Metacritic, surpassing its critical Metascore of 82 with a user rating of 9.2/10. This score places it above other highly-rated games, despite having significantly more reviews, making it a notable exception in the PS5 lineup.

The game's reception is not without controversy, as some of the high scores may be influenced by cultural debates surrounding its character design and themes. Critics suggest that a portion of the positive user ratings could be a reactionary push against perceived political correctness in gaming, rather than solely a reflection of the game's quality.
