Stellar Blade comes with multiple game settings, including graphics and difficulty settings. See more details of all the best settings and how to change the settings and difficulty settings here!

All Settings and Best Settings

Gameplay

Enable Autoloot to Focus on Battling and Exploration

There are no carry limits or any other limitations in looting items. Therefore, we recommend turning on auto-loot so you can focus more on combat and exploration.

Using the shorter ponytail option will decrease visual noise. However, it is still largely dependent on your preference.

As you play the game more, especially on your second playthrough, turning off hints, tutorials, and records is recommended.

Controls

Make Gun Controls Comfortable

Adaptive Triggers add resistance to the PS5 controller's trigger buttons. For a smoother and less stressful experience, we recommend turning it off or using the Prioritize Functionality option.

Aiming may be an issue since the game becomes fast-paced in certain moments. If you struggle to aim in vital spots during tense situations, turning Ranged Aim Correction to 10 is recommended.

Display

Disable Motion Blur and Camera Shake for Visual Clarity

We recommend turning off both Motion Blur and Camera Shake to maximize visual clarity, as this may cause a lot of visual blurring when playing the game. This can also reduce motion sickness.

Balanced is the Best Graphics Mode

For most players, the Balanced option is the best setting to choose as it has both the upsides of consistent 60 fps and good graphical quality.

If you prefer 60 fps and want to avoid occasional frame drops during intense scenes, stick to Performance mode.

If you are playing on a high-resolution monitor or bigger TV screen and prefer to enjoy the game with the best graphical fidelity, use the Resolution setting.

Interface

Enable HUD Background to Help in Bright Areas

We recommend turning the HUD Background to improve clarity when checking your HUD in bright areas.

Accessibility

Change Some Display Settings to Prevent Motion Sickness

These settings prevent unintentional screen movement and add a constant dot in the middle of the screen to help with motion sickness

Display Speaker Name for Clearer Dialogue

These subtitle options help understand who is speaking in a scene and what is being said.

Along with these, you may also consider changing the Subtitle Size and Background settings.

Change the Colors for Important Prompts

There are several settings that change the colors of effects and other assets in the game to help with visual clarity.

Automate QTEs and Fishing

If you wish to reduce the stress from mashing buttons for Quick-Time Events and fishing, these settings will let you automate most of the process for both events.

Note that this will not remove the QTEs when finishing off some bosses.

How to Change Difficulty Settings

Choose Difficulty Settings at New Game Start

The Difficulty Settings is selected when starting a new game. Story and Normal Mode change the difficulty of combat and do not affect anything else.

The Difficulty Setting can be changed later in your playthrough.

Change Difficulty Settings in the Pause Menu

To change the game difficulty during your playthrough, pause the game and enter the Settings tab. In the Gameplay section, change the difficulty to your preferred difficulty.

How to Change Settings

Access Settings From the Title Menu

The Settings Menu can be accessed from the Title Menu of the game when you start the game from your console's menu.

Access Settings From the Pause Menu

The Settings Menu can also be accessed from the Pause Menu in the Settings tab.
