In a post on the PlayStation Blog the director of developer Shift Up Corp, Kim Hyung Tae, shared some details:
From the smooth 60fps combat to the haptics, you’ll feel through the DualSense wireless controller, there are various charms of the game that you can only confidently appreciate through hands-on experience.
For those who complete the demo stage, you can carry over your save data when the full game releases on April 26, starting from the last checkpoint. Please note that save data must be stored on your PS5 system.
The Stellar Blade demo will be available starting Friday, March 29 from 7am PDT / 2pm GMT.
There is also a promise of a ‘little surprise’ for those that complete the first stage, with many assuming it is the special outfit that was discovered when the demo accidentally went live a few weeks back.
The demo also touts a whopping number of voice over and text options, showing that the language options for the game are spectacularly vast – take a look at these lists:

That’s a girthy selection. With the game is due at the end of April, it’s clear that their localisation team have not been slacking off.
