Stellar Blade PS5 How To Unlock And Equip Skin Suit

Posted on by Michelle Pereira

Stellar Blade is looking gorgeous, evoking Bayonetta and Nier: Automata with its visuals and style. The player character, EVE, can be outfitted in a number of suits, most of which are cosmetic in their effect.

The exception being the Skin Suit which disables EVE’s shield when worn, raising the game’s difficulty to some degree, while also providing plenty of eye candy. Here’s how to unlock and wear the Skin Suit.

Skin suits are outfits specially crafted by Mother Sphere. It covers the body of the Airborne Squad Member and deploys on its own, or expands and contracts depending on the situation. In other words, it's like a living skin.

The Skin Suit is essentially useless due to the lack of a shield, but may come in useful for in-game photography when the photo mode is eventually released.

Stellar Blade PS5 Is There A Photo Mode

Posted on by Michelle Pereira

Along with the impressive visuals in Stellar Blade come the expectations of a photo mode to capture gorgeous actions shots and expansive vistas from in-game. Considering that most games both within the action adventure genre, and outside of it, have had a dedicated photography menu, many players are wondering if there is one in Stellar Blade and how to even access it. Here’s everything we know so far.

Stellar Blade PlayStation 5: Is There A Photography Mode?

Unfortunately, the answer is no, not at launch. With a whole year spent on Stellar Blade’s stunning hair physics, the developers haven’t had any additional time to invest into a specialized photography menu for the game.

According to Kim Hyun-Tae, the director of Stellar Blade, the developers remain occupied with the core game itself, and thus Stellar Blade will not launch with photo mode. However, the studio is open to player feedback on inclusion of the mode at a later time and date.

Kim made the statement in an interview with Famitsu, responding to a direct question about the possible inclusion of in-game photography in March 2024, as machine translated below:

 

“Now that we are focusing on the development of the game mains, we are not ready for photo mode. I would like to answer as much as possible if the users request it.”

Kim Hyun-Tae,
Stellar Blade Director and SHIFT UP CEO

 

As a glass half-full take: that just means there’s still a possibility! Especially with a groundswell of opinion reaching the studio’s attention. Only time will tell if the collective voices from Reddit, Twitter/X, and the hundreds of forums where the game is being discussed, turn things around.

Stellar Blade PS5 How To Fix Input Lag

Posted on by Michelle Pereira

Stellar Blade is shaping up to be a massive hit, in the vein of Bayonetta or Nier: Automata. The recently released demo has been making waves among the playerbase for its stylish action adventuring. However, games in this genre are very sensitive to input lag, which can be all the difference between a satisfying gaming experience and a terrible one. So how does one fix input lag in Stellar Blade on the PS5?

Stellar Blade: What is HDCP?

The issues with Stellar Blade’s input lag stem from HDCP on the PlayStation 5. That stands for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection, which is a form of DRM (Digital Rights Management). HDCP is meant for protecting content from piracy, wherein it prevents copying of digital video and audio streams as they are transmitted between devices.

Unfortunately, these defensive mechanisms have a negative effect on gaming, adding just enough input lag to ruin the player experience.

Stellar Blade: How To Disable HDCP On PlayStation 5?

On your PlayStation 5, navigate to:

  • Settings
    • System
      • HDCP
        • Uncheck the box

That’s all there is to it. However, you may have to turn it back on again for certain situations.

 

For anyone suffering input lag turn off HDCP in settings under system-HDMI, cured it for me. This felt much easier after

Stellar Blade: Why Enable Or Re-enable HDCP?

If your primarily play games on your PlayStation 5, and don’t watch any streaming video content like Netflix, you can generally keep HDCP off at all times.

On the other hand, if you use your PlayStation 5 as a media device, then you will have to re-enable HDCP every time.

Here’s a tip: leave HDCP off, and only turn it back on when an app fails to work. Netflix is a prime example, but let the apps tell you.
