"Just enjoy": the director of Stellar Blade told who the game was made for

Even before the imminent release of the Stellar Blade action game, a heated discussion around the game continues on social networks and on gaming forums. Despite the developers' attempts to convince the public, the media accuse the game of excessive sexualization, and players respond by calling journalists "sellouts." and "two-faced". Shift Up executive director and key game developer Kim Hyun-tae tried to resolve the endless controversy. He urged users to "just enjoy" game.

In a recent interview with reporters, Kim Hyun-tae noted that for him and the entire studio, Stellar Blade is an extremely important project in terms of creative direction. He's not too happy to see users insult each other over a game, but he understands that everyone can have sensitive topics. According to the developer, Stellar Blade is not trying to be provocative. Shift Up created a game for ordinary gamers, fans of story-based games.
